MULTISITE] CREATE WEBSITE AND PLUGIN / THEME

After we enabled the Multisite feature on WordPress in the previous post, we can now start creating sub-sites and start getting to know the area in the site admin page.

VISIT TO THE MULTISITE SITE

When you enable Multisite, you have to visit its own admin page to create a website, install themes and plugins, and edit settings. To access this part you link to

My Sites -> Network Admin -> Dashboard.

Here you will find some main management items, perhaps you do not need to explain in detail because there are only a few functions.

CREATE WEBSITE CHILD

To create a subsite, look for the Sites -> Add New section. Here you will enter the name of the website, the path, the email of the administrator and the language of the website.

Then, to access the site's own administration, you can go to Sites -> All Sites and press the Dashboard button of the website you want to visit.

And in the sub-site administration page, you can do all the work as a separate site except to install new plugins and themes because this will work on your website.

PLUGIN AND THEM FOR CHILDREN WEBSITE

The child site in WordPress Multisite can not install the plugin and theme itself, so you will need to install the Network Admin and then activated separately for each child site.

We go back to My Sites -> Network Admin -> Dashboard to install the theme and install the plugin as usual. Once installed, you must activate it by selecting Network Enable and the new subnet will be enabled.

Then you visit the subsite and will use the theme that we have activated.

For the plugin is a bit different, you just install it and any website that you want to use you can go to the admin page of each website to activate, not to activate right at the Network Admin page.

ACTIVITY THEME SPECIFIC TO WEBSITE

If you click on the Network Enable button in the theme that I have instructed above all the website in the network will be able to use that theme. However, we can activate a specific theme for a specific website.

To do this go to Sites -> All Sites and click the Edit button of the website to set up.

last words

Then look for Themes and click the Enable button for the theme to activate separately with this website.

Too simple, and now Multisite feature of WordPress works quite standard and easy, not like before too, so installing the theme and plugin is easier, no plugin or theme must support new Multisite. arguable.

In the next article I will guide through the use of separate domain name for each website in the network.
