Syde

MultiSyde enhances the WordPress Multisite experience by addressing common usability challenges and streamlining network administration tasks. Developed by <a href="https://profiles.wordpress.org/syde/" rel="nofollow ugc">Syde</a> as both a practical tool and proof-of-concept for potential WordPress core improvements, with a focus on Multisite.
The plugin targets WordPress Multisite network administrators, developers, and organizations managing multiple WordPress sites. It focuses on targeted, high-impact enhancements rather than attempting to solve all Multisite challenges at once.
MultiSyde follows a modular architecture where each feature addresses specific pain points identified in <a href="https://core.trac.wordpress.org/tickets/active/" rel="nofollow ugc">WordPress Trac tickets</a> and community feedback. The plugin is actively developed and welcomes community contributions via the <a href="https://github.com/inpsyde/multisyde/" title="MultiSyde GitHub Repository" rel="nofollow ugc">GitHub repository</a>. See the FAQ for more details on how to contribute.
