Really a fantastic plugin
great thanks for this update !
Hi, no problem, thanks for purchasing, and your suggestion earlier. I should have made the whole activated in process differently from the beginning to get all data with one go through all sites, but no time now to rework the whole thing. Managed to sneak this update in at least.
Hi, Can I copy a sub folder site to the main root site?
Hi, the main site cannot be copied or replaced by a copy.
ok
Is there a way to find unused plugin in the multisite. I have more than 200 and I need to suppress unused plugin. I use actived in to do it, but its very long …. Thank you
Hi. I will send you a way to see the number of sites that have activated each plugin by running the activated in process only one time. Send me an email at nikolay@nikolaydev.com so I can reply there.
Hello, would you please update the plugin?
Hi, is there a problem with the plugin?
I’m reading your online document where it says that it has the feature to let users unsubscribe from the email list by using a [unsubscribe_url] link. From my understanding, your plugin will automatically create this link for the users to unsubscribe, right? Thanks!
Hi. Yes, where you put the shortcode in the footer text setting it will be replaced with a generated link that points to the lost password wp-login .php URL with additional parameters in the URL that will mark the user as unsubscribed on visiting the URL and show a message and hide the lost password form (we are just using its page for this). Keep in mind that even though they can unsubscribe, there is no subscribe form feature. Also if you are using woocommerce on the main site email me to send you a fix for one bug with the unsubscribe url.
Thank you. I’d assume if woocommerce redirects the user to the /my-account/ page instead of wp-login.php, it causes the issue? Again, thanks.
Yes, to the woo lost password form
.
Does it provide a log for the email users feature? For example, what were sent and what weren’t. Does the plugin have this feature? Thanks!
No, it only shows the number of sent and failed after the email task is finished. But if you can go in your phpmyadmin in your hosting and export a certain database table to a csv file, you will get a list of all the emails sent by the task and their status (sent/failed). You have to do this before you click the button to remove the task, since that will delete this data.
Okay, I see. I really hope that you’d consider to add more reporting features! Thank you so much!
I am not really actively developing it and adding new features. I mostly support it to keep it working and I will fix problems if they are reported or I notice them.
Okay, thank you for being transparent and upfront.
Is this plugin still working and receiving updates?
Hi. Yes, it is working and supported. I am just not actively adding new features. I have many clients that use it, and if anyone reports a problem I will fix it.
I was really excited to find a plugin focused on WordPress multisite, it’s an area that very few have seriously tackled, and that alone deserves recognition.
That said, I have to admit it’s a bit discouraging to hear there are no plans for new features. The plugin has a lot of potential, and it would be a shame not to take it further.
Thanks for making it available, and I hope this message encourages you to keep building on it. There’s real opportunity here to make a big impact.
I understand. And I do prefer to work on my plugins instead of other work, there is just no way to survive financially if I do that. The plugins would need to use a yearly subscription model or something. There are no such options on this platform at this time though. By the way, it already has a ton of features.
Hello,
I use your plugin to duplicate/copy sites and everything was working correctly…
I recently implemented Cloudflare on my Wordpress multisite and when I tried to duplicate a site the following error occurred: “A timeout occurred” (from Cloudflare).
And now all the sites are offline and with this same error “A timeout occurred”. 
1- Does your plugin work in the background copying the files/database even if an error occurs and will continue until the complete copy is finished?
2- Does your plugin work correctly when using Cloudflare?
3- Can you tell me what to do to solve this problem?
Thank you!
Hi, I sent you an email.
Hi, I’d like to know more about the email users feature. Does it support ACF in the email templates? Thank you
Hi. Sorry, no. It just has some shortcodes for the user name, and their site, and few others.
Okay, thank you. Would you consider to add this feature in your future release? Also will we be able to add the shortcode you mentioned to the email title? Or is there a way to modify the functions.php to achieve it? Thank you.
I guess I can add the shortcodes pretty easily to the email subject too if you need that. They are just on the message text at the moment. Can you tell me more about the ACF too, are these just user meta fields? It could be pretty easy to make a shortcode that can pulls user meta data. I have to test. So you have created user fields with ACF, is this what I need to do to test?
Hi nikolay, yes, it should be a great improvement (in my opinion) that you can support shortcodes in the email title. e.g. “Hi [first_name], ...”. Correct, you can use ACF (or a PHP script) to add meta fields to Users. e.g. “Location”, then you can the shortcode [acf field=”location”] in the frontend.
ACF shortcode: https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/shortcode/ An example of adding a custom field (meta field) to Users: https://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-add-additional-user-profile-fields-in-wordpress-registration/#aioseo-method-1-add-custom-user-profile-fields-using-advanced-custom-fields-plugin
I’m not sure if links are allowed here, so if they are not showing up, kindly let me know. Thanks so much.
OK, thanks, I will test this in the weekend and see how it works.
I did some testing. I can add a shortcode to add any user meta field to message body and subject. It will be like this: [user_meta meta_key=”field_name”]. If you buy the plugin send me an email at nikolay@nikolaydev.com and I will give you a temporary fix to use that new feature before it is released, since I am not releasing it at the moment but later.
Okay, thank you so much. If you ever plan to include in your next release, kindly let us know.
Yes, I will include it in the next release, I just don’t know when that will be. So to use it before that send me an email and I will give you an updated file for the email users module to use until it is released.
Hello, A couple of pre-sales questions (I am keen) can you tell me will your plugin allow to sell multisites to users? also will it allow levels, such as give a free site with restrictions such as access to plugins, traffic and space allocation either by settings or user roles (eg: I want to sell sub-sites same like a web host). and finnaly does your plugin allow to map a domain to a multisite or will it work with a mapped domain. thank you
Hi. No. All the features are listed on the plugin page. You need the plugin WP Ultimo for that. Regards.
Ask before buying, How do you manage multi-accounts for plugins like Woocommerce? Will this plugin work to have subsites mapped to your domains using WooCommerce?
Hi. What do you mean? The plugin does not have features related to woocommerce or domain mapping. It is about managing a wordpress multisite.
Is there a possibility that in the near future you will introduce a payment model similar to WP Ultimo?
Hi. I don’t plan to do that, sorry.
Hi I have question before I purchase, my multisite has several custom global tables that most sites use and others don’t, when I clone a site, will it clone the global tables or can I choose?
Hi. It will clone the tables of the subsite that you are cloning (you cannot clone the main site of the network by the way). These tables start with a prefix that contain the main prefix and the site id of the site you are cloning. You cannot choose which tables to clone. It depends on their prefix.
Hello,
I need to clone different websites on my network, but other plugins I have used take a long time and are unable to complete the copy.
Can your plugin clone websites with many products (more than 200 thousand products) in approximately how long? Can your plugin clone websites in the background or do I need to keep the browser window open for this?
If I buy your plugin and it is not able to clone my websites, can I get my money back?
Thanks!
Hi. No, don’t even try this with plugins. You probably have millions of image files for these products. Every image has multiple sizes, and if every product has multiple images, the number will be insane. It needs to be done manually by someone who understands both how to manage the server and perform commands there and also understands very well multisite database structure. Even the cPanel software, which is made to manage the server, will not allow you to archive too many files and will break. I don’t believe you will find a plugin that can do that.
Hello, Thanks for the suggestions.
However, on my multisite site, all images are already being stored externally on DigitalOcean Spaces and are used from there as on a CDN. So I think images won’t be the problem, as the bigger problem I think will be cloning the database.
I also intend to reduce the quantity of products to leave only the most important products available.
Do you think your plugin can help in this way?
Another option would be to centralize all products elsewhere so that all subsites fetch products from one centralized place. Do you know how to do this?
Any suggestion?
Thanks!
Ah, OK. Well, if there are not a lot of images, then it could work with my plugin then. My plugin uses MySQL queries to copy whole database tables, unlike some other plugins that actually create every single thing with a wordpress function separately. So they will call it every time for every product you have. My plugin will copy the whole database table, which is much, much faster. As long as the server can perform the MySQL query of course. I don’t know if it will be able to in your case. But we could do a refund if it does not work and if I cannot fix it. At least I will approve the refund, but envato has to approve it too (which I cannot control). The reason for refund we can use is a problem that I am not able to fix, which is mentioned in the refund policy that can be a reason for refund. But you have to give me a chance to try to fix it first, before you are eligible for a refund. And about the centralized place alternative, I guess search for a woocommerce multistore plugin. But I haven’t used one, I just know they exist
.
Also, just to add, that the main site cannot be copied with my plugin. Make sure to read these things in the plugin features description, because not reading something that I have said on the plugin page does not give reasons for refund.
Hope hospital will be safe for you
Hi, thank you. I hope that as well. It is a low risk surgery with high success rate, which I have delayed for far too many years, but it has to be done. Regards.
Ok, I keep this in ming, be safe and take care
Hi,
I’m interested with your plugin, and have several question:
1. can your plugin clean residual database from not active plugin setting in all subsite?
2. can your plugin force apply active themes to all subsite?
3. can your plugin force apply menu and footer widget to all subsite?
4. as an administrator, when viewing subsite, it become member user of subsite, so it make administrator have a lot of site in My Site menu list, can your plugin clean that unecessary data?
Regards,
Hilfan
Hi.
1. No. It can only delete database tables of subsites that are permanently deleted. They leave behind usually some tables of plugins.
2. No.
3. No.
4. No. Also this is not how multisite works. If you view a subsite you will not get a role in it, and it will not be added to My Sites. If this happens on your multisite, it is from some plugin probably.
If you want you can hire me to make you a small custom plugin or a script to do some of these things for you. Email me at nikolay@nikolaydev.com
Regards.
Have I not received any updates for this plugin? If so, does this plugin not receive regular updates? If it lacks updates, there is a possibility that it may stop functioning correctly when WordPress releases new updates.
Hi. The latest version is 1.15.0. If you have that, you are up to date. You should receive an email notification when there is a new version and you can download it from your envato account. There is no need for an update for every new wordpress version, so don’t worry. Regards.
Is it possible create a new site and send email and password to new admin? and it works in bulk mode too?
Hi. There is no bulk site creation feature, if that is what you are asking about. There is a feature to activate a pending signup, which should send the default WordPress email about that action. Can you tell me more about the feature that you need?
Can this plugin manage themes too?
Hi. It depends on what you mean by manage. Keep in mind that WordPress multisite already has a built in feature to network disable/enable themes and also per site enable/disable themes, so no need a plugin for that. Also to clarify that enable/disable means showing/hiding the theme from the site administrator so they cannot switch to or from it, it is not the same as activating. My plugin adds this feature for plugins, but themes already have it. For themes my plugin allows you to see in which sites they are activated. But what do you mean by manage themes exactly?
Why every time I copy a subsite the “Site Title” is also copied? Every time I copy I have to enter the new copied site and go to Setting and edit the blogname. I always have to do this step, but I think it’s wrong for this process to be repeated.
Hi. I can add an option to disable that and send you a new version of the plugin (so you can use it before the change is included in the next version). Can you leave a comment here from an account that has purchased the plugin, or send me the purchase code on my email nikolay@nikolaydev.com? Your account does not show up as a client.
Hi, an option has been added now to disable that in the new version.
Hi, I wanted to ask you with an issue we are facing. We need to be able to retrieve all network orders from an API Resource from your plugin. What’s the best way to access this?
Hi. What do you mean by “network orders from an API Resource from your plugin”?
Are you looking for an API to access all woocommerce orders in the network? There is no such feature in my plugin.
Hi Nikolay, is there a way for me to mail you directly?
Yes, my email is posted on the plugin item page, it is nikolay@nikolaydev.com
