Shiny Updates: Plugins installed on Multisite shouldn't auto-activate on the primary site

Description

In testing the installation part of the new shiny updates functionality in trunk, I discovered that installing a plugin via the Network Admin ended up installing the plugin and auto-activating it on the primary site. Probably shouldn't do that.

Steps to reproduce (multisite required):

  1. Navigation to Network Admin > Plugins > Add New
  2. Install a new plugin by clicking the "Install Now" button
  3. AJAX in the button should indicate the plugin is being installed
  4. Navigate to Primary Site > Plugins
  5. Note that the recently-installed plugin has been installed and is activated

  • Status changed from new to closed

In 31511:

Do not activate plugins on initial installation in multisite.

Check is_multisite() before activating a plugin that has been installed via AJAX. Without this check, the plugin would be automatically activated on the main site of the network.

Props ianmjones.

Fixes #31327.

  • Severity changed from normal to blocker

I just experienced this behavior with the latest shiny updates 2-20160606 and the latest wordpress multisite. 4.5.2.

  • Go to network plugins
  • Add plugin
  • Install plugin
  • Activate plugin

-- Expected behavior: network activation, and stay on Install Plugin page
-- Actual behavior: ejected to main site of the multisite plugin page, and main site has the plugin activated, network is not activated
