Enabling Multiple User Uploads

    I use FTP_PUBKEY, FTP_PRIKEY, FTP_USER and FTP_PASS with SSH keys to streamline the upgrade and upload process for standard wordpress installations.

    I am working on a multi-site installation and wondering if there is a way to define these variables per site/user in the wp-config or htaccess files?

    Users will not have login/command-line access to the system. I want to setup the ssh keys so users can install/upload themes and plug-ins. Can you setup multiple FTP_USER definitions? That doesn’t seem supported.

    Thanks

    In MultiSite, only a Network Admin can install/upload/activate themes or plugins. Regular blog administrators can’t do that. So, theoretically, you should be okay with setting those values once and having your Network Admin account do the updating.

    and in a network you only do them from one admin screen anyway. So you’ll only be inputting the values once.

    In short, your users cannot (and should not) install themes and plugins. There’s one copy of each for everyone’s use.
