Network Settings hidden for everyone but available via URL

[niklasbr]

This is a regression from earlier versions (including 3.1 and 3.2 RC1).

To reproduce, install a frech copy Wordpress 3.2 Release Candidate 2 in a database with no tables prior.

Go through the steps to create a multisite install. Once the first site has been created the Network Settings disappear and there is no longer possible to reach the Network settings unless the URL subdomain.example.com/wp-admin/network is written manually into the browser address bar.

No link is present from subdomain.example.com/wp-admin or www.subdomain.example.com/wp-admin (main site admin).

The network admin link moved to a menu under Howdy, <your name>. Is it appearing there?

Because he wrote that it's a regression from 3.2RC1 I think he knows where the link is.

Maybe something with #17829.

niklasbr, If it's not showing in the dropdown under the Howdy links, What browser and operating system are you using?

I assume you've tested without any plugins too?

No feedback in 3 months.

Feel free to reopen with more information if there's still a problem.

Network Settings only appears if WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE remains set. Otherwise, there's no need to have the screen. So that's probably what happened here.
