NinjaFirewall (WP edition) troubleshooter v1.9.4
Are you accessing http://www.otherdomain.com/wp-admin/network/admin.php?page=NinjaFirewall?
If you do, is there any error returned?
Do you see NinjaFirewall’s icon in the admin tool bar. By default it is visible in a multisite installation and, when moving the mouse over, it will show a tooltip with a link to its settings page.

yes, I see the icon and the plugin is definitely active and working. The error message is “Sorry, you are not authorized to access this page.” (wp-die / Error 403)
When I look in the plugin overview page https://www.newdomain.com/wp-admin/network/plugins.php, instead of the settings there is the gray text “Access restricted”, see https://imgur.com/a/wdQ0EK0
This restriction occurs when you either don’t have the manage_network capabilities or if this is not the main site, i.e., the is_main_site() function returns false.
Copy the following code, save it to the file, e.g., “whatever.php”, upload it to your site inside the main root folder, and go to http://your-site/whatever.php:
<?php
require 'wp-config.php';
if ( current_user_can('manage_network') ) {
echo "OK: You have the manage_network capability.</p>";
} else {
echo "ERROR: You don't have the manage_network capability.</p>";
}
if ( is_main_site() ) {
echo "OK: This is the main site.</p>";
} else {
echo "ERROR: This is not the main site.</p>";
}

OK, got the point, I have to change the wp-config.
8 is the Blog-ID of “otherdomain.com” what is my new mainsite.
define(‘BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE’, 8);
following the hints in here
Thanks & regards, Andrea
