    Hi,

    I installed a new WordPress Multisite recently for my project and made sub-sites for example site1, site2, site3.
    Now i have a user specific for site1 only but he can still login to site2 and site3. Is this the feature of Multisite or am i missing something here…

    If this is how it works then, is there any plugin to restrict users from site1 and site2 and site3.

    Any help/advice would be appreciated.

    Now i have a user specific for site1

    Has that user got site-wide SuperAdmin rights? If so, he should be able to log in to any of the subsites in this way.
    If you log in to subsites site2 and site3, is your site1 user listed in the Users menu?

    If a user logs in to other sites, he does so ONLY as a subscriber. He has no extra powers.

    @dgilmour – superAdmin can login to all three site1,site2,site3. But user specific to site1 only (site1 is not the main site). I din’t get the thought of checking what you said, thanks for the thought..!

    @ipstenu – Thanks bro as you said is right. I read on some post that users of specific site can also login to other sub-sites but as a subscriber only. Is there any way to restrict them completely…like show some message like “You do not belong to this site. Please register to this site.” or something..?

    Thanks for replying.

    I haven’t tested this, so I can’t verify that it actually works (or what complications it might bring), but you could try creating a new role with fewer capabilities than the Subscriber role, then assign all of these users to that role.
