描述
Beardo Multisite Activation Console gives super admins one screen to see and safely change the activation state of every installed plugin across an entire multisite network.
What it does
- Activation matrix — every plugin’s state (network active, active per site, or off) across all subsites in a single DataViews grid
- Safe transitions — one state change per request, so a fatal error on one subsite never takes down the whole batch
- Dry-run validation — backend health checks run before any change is executed
- Stale dual-state cleanup — detects plugins that are both network active and redundantly active per site, and strips the redundant entry without deactivating anything
- Audit log — every state transition is recorded network-wide with the acting user, target site, action, and result, filterable by user, site, and plugin
- Guardrails — a protected list stops the console from deactivating itself or a drop-in and locking a super admin out mid-operation
Safety first
Every request is gated to super admins with the manage_network_plugins capability, protected by REST cookie authentication and nonces, and every posted value is validated against a server-side allowlist before anything runs.

External Services
This plugin makes no external HTTP requests. It reads and writes only local
WordPress data: the network’s plugin activation state, the sites in the
network, and its own audit log table. No data is sent to any third-party
service, and no tracking, telemetry, or analytics of any kind is collected.
Third-Party Libraries
The admin interface is a React application built from the plugin’s own source
in src/ using @wordpress/scripts. The shipped build/index.js is compiled
output — not obfuscated code — and contains only the plugin’s source plus the
standard WordPress packages it imports (@wordpress/components,
@wordpress/dataviews, @wordpress/element, @wordpress/api-fetch,
@wordpress/i18n, @wordpress/icons), all GPL-compatible.
The full, unminified source is available in the plugin’s public repository.

安裝
- Upload the plugin folder to
/wp-content/plugins/ - Network Activate it from Network Admin Plugins
- Open Network Admin Plugins Activation Console
This plugin requires a WordPress multisite installation. It has no effect on single-site installs.
常見問題
-
Does this work on a single-site WordPress install?
-
No. The console manages activation state across a multisite network, so it requires a multisite installation and must be network activated.
-
Can it break my network by deactivating something critical?
-
The console executes one transition per request so a fatal on one subsite is isolated, runs a backend dry-run before executing, and maintains a protected list (filterable via
beardo_mac_protected_plugins) of plugins it will never touch — including itself. -
Who can use the console?
-
Only super admins with the
manage_network_pluginscapability. Every REST request is nonce-protected and validated server-side. -
What is recorded in the audit log?
-
Every state transition: the acting user, the plugin, the action, the scope, the target site, the result, and a timestamp. The log is stored in one network-wide table and can be filtered by user, site, and plugin.
-
What happens to my data if I uninstall?
-
Uninstalling removes the audit log table. No other data is created or modified.

修改日誌
1.0.0
- Initial public release.
- Activation matrix — every plugin’s state (network active, per-site active, or off) across all subsites in a single DataViews grid
- Safe transitions — one state change per request, so a fatal error on one subsite never takes down the whole batch
- Dry-run validation — backend health checks run before any change is executed
- Stale dual-state cleanup — detects and strips redundant per-site entries for network-active plugins without deactivating anything
- Dead-reference cleanup — removes activation entries for plugins no longer present on disk
- Audit log — every state transition recorded network-wide with acting user, target site, action, and result, filterable by user, site, and plugin
- Guardrails — a filterable protected list (
beardo_mac_protected_plugins) prevents the console from deactivating itself or locking out a super admin - Admin theme compatibility — console colors flow through a plugin-scoped CSS token layer, and the focus ring follows the user’s admin color scheme
- Full RTL support
This release follows an internal beta series; 1.0.0 is the first version published to WordPress.org.
