Add Filter: show_addsite_fields

[axelseaa]

Similar to what was added to the ms-users page (now network/users), I would like to add the following patch to add a filter that would allow the add site function to be hidden on the network/sites.php page.

I am the author of the LDAP authentication plugin, and I'll need to provide a specialized add site page that properly deals with ldap users not associated with the site yet.

I think we should consider moving these fields to a new screen.

Also, it might be better to instead introduce an add_sites cap. We did this with manage_network_* caps as well. They aren't defined and super admins simply inherit them, but it allows for customization via the capabilities API.

I think this could now be done by removing the Sites -> Add New menu with remove_submenu_page().

I'm with Ryan.

I'm confused how this can be done now with remove_submenu_page.

what I'm after is hiding the add site section at the bottom of the ms-sites.php page.

Trunk has changed here. This is no longer a form on network/sites but rather a standalone page, site-new.

I would like to change the manage_sites cap to create_sites. That should fix this ticket.

(In [16103]) Use a create_users cap for Sites > Add New. fixes #14621.
