 * We’re setting up a couple of sites with the multisite or network enabled, however
   we’re finding that althoughwe can install plugins to the network admin/dashboard/
   plugin area and activate them, they are not showing up in the plugins menu for
   any of the sites ?
 * I’ve read this –

 * I can’t figure out what we’re doing wrong

   network” dashboard, but only 5 are showing up under the management page or on
   sites in the network

 * If you network activate a plugin they are active for all sites on the network
   and don’t show up on per sites plugins.php pages.
 * That’s all. The plugins are active and running, they just can’t be turned off.
 * If you want to activate a plugin per-site, don’t network activate it.
 * If you want to HIDE a plugin from certain sites, thats something else.
