Team update: Multisite Mavens

Apologies for the late update. I’ve been sick for the better of the week. Our cycle ended on Wednesday and we are on track with everything. Autocomplete for username/emails is in trunktrunk A directory in Subversion containing the latest development code in preparation for the next major release cycle. If you are running "trunk", then you are on the latest revision. for the site-new and site-user screens in the networknetwork (versus site, blog) adminadmin (and super admin) and the user-new screen in the site admin.

The autocomplete in the user-new screen is only available for super admins to avoid user/email disclosure to site admins. There is a filterFilter Filters are one of the two types of Hooks https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Hooks. They provide a way for functions to modify data of other functions. They are the counterpart to Actions. Unlike Actions, filters are meant to work in an isolated manner, and should never have side effects such as affecting global variables and output. to enable the autocomplete for the site admins. You can use:
add_filter( 'autocomplete_users_for_site_admins', '__return_true' );

The autocomplete is not available on large networks (more than 10,000 users) to avoid scaling problems. This comes from the wp_is_large_network() and can be tweaked using the wp_is_large_network filter.

Props to boonebgorges, Japh, DrewAPicture, nacin, koopersmith, markjaquith, PeteMall for contributing patches during the first cycle. Japh and DrewAPicture will continue working on extending autocomplete to other screens in the network admin. The rest of us will tackle other multisitemultisite Used to describe a WordPress installation with a network of multiple blogs, grouped by sites. This installation type has shared users tables, and creates separate database tables for each blog (wp_posts becomes wp_0_posts). See also network, blog, site tickets.

We’ll tacke #19796 in the next cycle starting next week.

We’ll list some simple tickets here that you guys can work on right now. Please post a link to the ticketticket Created for both bug reports and feature development on the bug tracker. you are working on so we can help. You can help by writing a patchpatch A special text file that describes changes to code, by identifying the files and lines which are added, removed, and altered. It may also be referred to as a diff. A patch can be applied to a codebase for testing. or testing the current patch to see if it applies cleanly and fixes the bugbug A bug is an error or unexpected result. Performance improvements, code optimization, and are considered enhancements, not defects. After feature freeze, only bugs are dealt with, with regressions (adverse changes from the previous version) being the highest priority..
