 * Hello,
 * There is any way that one plugin when is network admin activated can activate
   other plugins by code?!?
 * I need that one plugin activate other network plugins. I can do this in functions.
   php, but when I do this in one plugin file the code just doesn’t work, it seems
   that function activate_plugin() doesn’t work.
 * Same if I try deactivate_plugins(). In functions.php works perfect, in plugin
   not.
 * note: I require plugin.php in plugin code…
 * Thanks for help!
 * Best regards,
