If you activate a plugin in the network area, it activates that plugin for every site in the network. That also means that becuase it’s always on, it doesn’t show in the plugins lists of each individual site. For most well-programmed plugins you will still get all of the correct administration menus and pages, but you just won’t see it in the plugins list.
Hello Catacaustic and thanks for respond
Yea i know they dont appear because i read some articles and some people say it, but in my case, the plugins never activate, i verify it, and they never turn on, i have to activate 1 by 1.
My goal is to link all the site -> my main site and subdomains to get a network for share plugins like, antivirus, for ads, cache plugins, etc!. but its imposible.
When i activate the plugin they just show in the Main domain, not in the subdomain…
I have to say i install MU wordpress in an stablished Domain and want to link in a stablished Subdomain.
Maybe you can have the answer for it
I will wait your answer
Thanks for all

Which pluigns are you having issues with? All of the ones that ‘ve used before all work fine with multisite (but admitedly that’s only a few selected plugins).
Hi
Whit all the plugins, i cant see anything, just the plugin what i have installed already, but the network plugins cant used in the subdomain,
Where is the problem?
It’s very hard to try and diagnose a problem if we don’t know what we’re workign with, so if you can tell us one or two of the plugins that you’re having issues with we’ll be able to try these for ourself and see if there’s any problems. Without knowing which plugins you’re using we can’t do that. There’s just far too many plugins to know what you’re using there.
I dont know if the plugins have a problem, i think the network is not open and the subdomain dont take the data of the domain, that why the plugins cannot activate.
Maybe the subdomain dont sned data or recibe data from main domain, but i m new on it, and i dont know why it happen
ok, i can send you a list of my plugins atm
look
i cannot upload pics here
Just as a check here… as I think I’m starting to see something.
When you set up the sub-domain, is the sub-domain it’s own WordPress installation, or is the sub-domain part of your WordPress network site as well?
hi
yes, the file of subd domain is in the public_html, its a proper wordpres instalation and i have to say i move it twice, in subdomain mode, inside and outside the folders.
I think that’s where you’re going wrong.
Any sub-sites in a Network need to be part of the network – not a separate installation in the file system. You cannot have separate installations that interact to share themes and plugins with a Network installation.
As it sounds like you are using cPanel, the main domain, and all other sub-domains must be pointed to the single /public_html/ directory. So when you create the sub-domain, it needs to be only /public_html/, and not /public_html/sub/. Then you add these sites in your WordPress network admin area.
It sound like can solve the problem, now how i can do that?
Look i have what you say
Public_Html/Mymaindomain.com
Public_html/Sub
I have it already
What i do to connect it in a network? i hear something of copy the file inside your network and change the dns of cpanel. But what other requeriments need to do for it get in network?
Thanks for answer this topic 🙂
Ok… Remove the current sub-domain completely. Everything. The files, the database, everything. BUT… If you have anything on it that needs to be kept like files, etc back them up somewhere first.
Now that you’ve done that, go into cPanel and add the sub-domain in again but set the root folder for it to /public_html/ and not /public_html/sub/. After that then go into your WordPress Network admin and add a new site, and set this to be the sub-domain. That will set up a new clean site and you can start again with the new site.
Hello
But what happen whit the main domain?
I have to say the main domain is not on the root folder the files are in
Root of main domain: public_html/domain.com
Similar than subdomain
Root of Subdomain: Public_html/sub
The subdomain have setup whit dns: sub.domain.com but the files are in public_html
i dont know if your advice can solve my problem becasue it have no logic, but i will try it right now!
I will delete all the files and drop tables, whit my backup, because the sub have a long database.
Lets see what happen, very soon i will comment the news.
Thanks for all

Hello
Look:
I install the network in my main domain whit root: public_html/domain.com
thats ok and its working,
I cannot send the files of domain.com to public_html because i have others domains there… i m being understand what you are saying but i already have a folder installed there.
What i can do in this case?
I have to transfer all the wordpress files where i install the network and send it to public_html, or just have to send the sub folder to maindomain.com where are all the files of the network.
I m working on it atm
Thanks for all
