Allow plugin-access by $blog_id

  • Hello happy WordPress community!

    I run a little wpms-network and need to allow some sites to access the plugin managment. The best way for me is to do it with a plugin and the $blog_id.

    Is is possible to allow plugin-access per site by $blog_id?

    Something like this would be perfect:

    if($blog_id == 1234) do_allow_upload('function');

    Best regards

  • Sure, stick global $blog_id; near the top before you ask for $blog_id, and away you go.

    Access to plugin upload is by user level. plugins are shared across the *entire system*.

    Permissions are associated with user role/capability not blog_id so enabling the manage plugin menu will still keep it hidden from those users who don’t have activate_plugins capabilities. Further, specifically the Plugins menu requires menu permission defined at SuperAdmin->Options->Menus Settings. Can’t enable it while that switch is off.

    I may have misread you op. I was thinking…

    global $blog_id;
if($blog_id == 1234) my_add_my_plugin_page_function();

    Sorry, i made a mistake in my last post. I try to explane it:

    On /wp-admin/ms-options.php i diabled the option Enable administration menus (because i dont want to give plugin-access to my users), but i want that some special blogs can still access the plugin-managment. Now i want to write a plugin where i can list all $blog_id′s and give them access like:

    if($blog_id == 1234 || $blog_id == 1235 || $blog_id == 1236) function_to_allow_plugin_access();

    Is there a core function for this, or can i overwrite the setting′s from /wp-admin/ms-options.php

    Best regards and thanks for your help!

    You won’t be able to keep the network setting to disable the Plugins Menu and allow some users/blogs access to plugin admin at the same time – not without editing the core file, which I won’t suggest.

    I do suggest:

    Have you kicked the tires of the Plugin Commander? It does something similar, I think.

    It keeps the default Plugin menu disabled but enables(creates) a new plugin administration page to manage plugins per site.
