Goal of this ticket is to make it faster and easier to activate themes in multisiteMultisite
Multisite is a WordPress feature which allows users to create a network of sites
on a single WordPress installation. Available since WordPress version 3.0, Multisite
is a continuation of WPMU or WordPress Multiuser project. WordPress MultiUser project
was discontinued and its features were included into WordPress core. [Advanced Administration Handbook -> Create A Network.](https://developer.wordpress.org/advanced-administration/multisite/create-network/)
installs. See my comment on the ticket. Looking at a) possible label change, b) 
adding a highlight state to the themes list table, and/or c) any UIUI UI is an acronym
for User Interface - the layout of the page the user interacts with. Think ‘how 
are they doing that’ and less about what they are doing. suggestion that would make
this process easier. Let’s hash out early ideas and/or mockups here, and when we’ve
got something solid, move over to tracTrac Trac is the place where contributors 
create issues for bugs or feature requests much like GitHub.[https://core.trac.wordpress.org/](https://core.trac.wordpress.org/)..

[Ticket #15942](https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/15942) – Username vs. Email
for Identifying Users

**Reported Problem: **“When I create a new blog in a network, I am asked to enter
the **Admin Email**. This is rather useless to me because all our accounts come 
from an LDAP directory. So I have to remember the site admin’s email address, which
is not always consistent across my organization. It would be nicer if I had an autocomplete-
style field where I could enter the user’s ID.”

The issues of selecting existing users vs. adding new users and doing so by email
address vs. username touches more admin interactions than just this one. We’ll need
to address it as a whole rather than just focusing on this one person’s complaint,
but using this ticket as a starting point for discussion.
