Description

For multisite installations, it would be nice to have a shortcut to create a new site under the "New" admin-bar menu.

  • Every other single-site object is already listed (posts, pages, etc...)
  • "User" is listed, and you can add a new User to a site or install, but from the site dashboard
  • Visually, it should be a separate, secondary menu group (probably at the top?)
  • That secondary group could be used for any "network/global" Add shortcut

That issue is the duplicate of this one, so this ticket being closed goes against convention.

The chronology is important, because it keeps code changes closely coupled to the initial discovery and discussion.

Unless protocol has changed somewhere I haven’t seen, the patch on that issue should have been brought over here instead.

  • Keywords has-patch needs-testing added; 2nd-opinion close removed
  • Milestone set to Awaiting Review
  • Resolution duplicate deleted
  • Status changed from closed to reopened

OK, it would have been better to close the other ticket as duplicate.

I don't know what else would go into a secondary menu group, so I simply iterated on @henry.wright's patch 49040.diff:

  • Changing the link reference to network_admin_url( 'site-new.php' ), as it is in the dashboard widget
  • Moving this additional link outside the foreach loop
  • Moving is_multisite() before the capabilities check, to follow the 'Edit Site' link example
  • Editing the ID to 'add-new-site' to avoid confusion with Jetpack's 'new-site' link
  • Adding to the DocBlock
