Show Site ID Columns in MultiSite

โ€”

in

This is totally a use at your own risk sort of thing. I really have no plans to do anything with it, and no, you cannot sort by ID due to limitations in how the columns work in WordPress.

Installation Instructions
Make a file called show-site-ids.php, put this code in it, and upload to your mu-plugins folder.

    I really need this, but I’m not a programmer. Where do I put this?

    Thanks,
    J

    1. Make a folder called mu-plugins in your wp-content folder. Put this file (named whatever you want) in there. It’ll magically run ๐Ÿ™‚

  2. Thank you Ipstenu for the code! Just what I need. ๐Ÿ™‚

  3. Ipstenu.
    May I add my thanks for writing that useful little script. Saved my sanity… for now!

  4. ๐Ÿ˜‰ Many Thanks

    I was wondering a long time how to get the stupid id visible.

    I think the code above misses a php ending statement. ?>

    Or is the some more code left?

    Once again thanks for putting me into the right direction.

    ๐Ÿ™‚ ๐Ÿ™‚ ๐Ÿ™‚

    1. Not missing. You actually don’t need the end call for PHP, and by leaving it out, it prevents people from having a headers already sent error. You can put it if you want, though.

  5. EXCELLENT!!
    Thank you.
