 * Is there a way to make PO not disclose network activated plugins to individual
   sites? I don’t want the site admins to know exactly which plugins are on – WP
   hides them by default, but PO discloses them so you can change the order I guess.
 * Thanks

 * They are there so the order can be changed. If they weren’t visible you couldn’t
   change the plugin order.

 * Yes I was assuming so:
 * > PO discloses them so you can change the order I guess
 * My issue is that this is unwanted behavior for the reasons I explained above.
   I take it you have no plans to change this?
    Best.

 * I can look into requiring network admin level access to see the load order. Then
   your site admins would not be able to change the load order of the plugins though.
   I did this for a reason. Many requests to order networked plugins.

 * In my case that would be desirable 🙂
 * Just a feature petition. Up to you of course.
 * Congrats on this great plugin!

 * I have just released version 4.1 which adds an option to only allow network admins
   the ability to change the plugin load order and see the networked plugins on 
   a single site. Try it out and let me know if it fixes your issue.

 * Thanks for the info, Jeff.
 * I do see 4.1 is the latest available for download but for some reason in my wp-
   admin the plugin doesn’t show there’s a new version for download. Perhaps 4.0.2
   is still marked as stable?
 * I’ll download it and install manually but wanted to let you know. I’ll get back
   to you when I’ve tried it.
 * Cheers.

 * Ok tried it, works for me. It would be even better if that was a network setting.
 * Thanks again!

 * Are you running wordpress 3.8 or higher? That is a requirement for the new version
   because of the layout changes done to the admin.

 * No, still avoiding 3.8. Ok that explains it.
 * p.s. I found a possible bug, I’ll post another topic.
