Not all plugins are visible on mapped domain

    I have a recent upgrade of a site to 3.1, which I was forced to make a manual upgrade.
    Anyways, the installation is complete, but it keeps showing on top “the automatic installation has failed, please try again”. …… strange… do you have an idea why, and what to do?

    Well, the main problem here, and I hope it’s not “a default thing of 3.1”, is that in any mapped domain, the amount of plugins is not the same as in the superadmin site. I have around 210 plugins, but in all mapped domains it shows only 200.

    In order to work faster, I added so much to use the superadmin as a plugin and theme library.
    I hope it has a solution, because what happen if I need to add more plugins? It removes the last part and that is very anoying.

    Hope you can help.
    Thanks.

  • If you network activate a plugin, it will not show up in a site’s plugin list – doesn’t matter if it’s mapped or not.

    Please do not use all caps in your threads. It’s considered shouting.

    ?? hehe… fine, I will stop shouting…. was not my intention though, it was more to catch a visual attention.

    Anyways.

    I’m not sure because none of these plugins were activated. In the superadmin list of “not activated plugins”, I have 210. In the mapped site and in the siteadmin of the multisite (not superadmin), in the list of “not activated plugins”, I have 200.

    If they are not activated, then why does it show less?

    Btw, there must be something wrong, because now in the superadmin it shows only the option network activate, but in the site admin it shows activate. I guess this is the new 3.1 when you allow multisite.

    Hey, what about : ” An automated WordPress update has failed to complete – please attempt the update again now. ” As you know, it is now upgraded to 3.1 but was done manualy.
    Do you think it has something to do with the “200 plugins issue”?

    Well, I would say that 210 plugins is an issue. Yikes. That’s a lot of extra code that the system has to run through, activated or not. Could be causing all sorts of odd stuff. May just be that no one ever thought that someone would install that many, so capped the list at 200 (should be enough for everybody).

    Hmmm, well perhaps there’s a way to alter the php core. Do you have an idea where could be located that code for “maximum of allowed plugins to show”?
    There a many great plugins, and besides that I wanted to add also buddy press to that multisite.

    Perhaps in a near future, they could invent a “cloud core wordpress”, that supports unlimited plugins and themes, which would be installed in local or privat servers.

    Anyways, I have the feeling I should rather remove a few ones and forget about it.

    Yes, remove the extra cruft. 200+ plugins or themes is too many for users to wade thru and they will wind up leaving instead of picking.

    besides, with that many you probably have a number of very similar plugins. no need to have 10 plugins that do that same thing. pick one.

    Thank you Andrea, I could not have guessed what you would tell me… ??

    …but you are right, out there are hundreds of cloned useless plugins, but having a good library at home is allways good.

    I allready removed those I don’t need, but since I went back to 3.05, I don’t have this problem anymore.

    Cheers
