Description
Hello all,
I wonder if it would be a great idea (or not) to make easily the mu-plugins usage by allowing website admin to upload them from the backend.
Today, the "add new plugin" is sending to the classical plugin install screen. I think we should change it to allow uploading PHP files to create mu-plugins.
Writing this ticket, I understand this can be a security breach to allow users even if they are admin uploading PHP file...
In the other hand, WordPress Core already allow this kind with the plugin/theme file editor...
Change History (2)

Thanks for the idea!
MU-plugins are always active and load before other plugins, and they can't be deactivated from the dashboard. That means uploading a buggy PHP file could break the site and lock the admin out. Because of this, I think this feature should be closed as wontfix.
