विवरण
MultiSyde enhances the WordPress Multisite experience by addressing common usability challenges and streamlining network administration tasks. Developed by Syde as both a practical tool and proof-of-concept for potential WordPress core improvements, with a focus on Multisite.
The plugin targets WordPress Multisite network administrators, developers, and organizations managing multiple WordPress sites. It focuses on targeted, high-impact enhancements rather than attempting to solve all Multisite challenges at once.
MultiSyde follows a modular architecture where each feature addresses specific pain points identified in WordPress Trac tickets and community feedback. The plugin is actively developed and welcomes community contributions via the GitHub repository. See the FAQ for more details on how to contribute.
