    Hi,

    Im just installed a new site and activated the multisite..It’s a succesfull install, my concern is that.I created another site..So, I have two site, the primary one and the one I created, but when I hover to my site, I can only see one, which is the primary, I dont see the site that I just created. But when I go to super admin dashboard and click on site, I can see the two but on the site when I hover I dont see it..

    Not sure if there was wrong on the installation cause I just follow correctly the instruction on wordpress..

    Cheers

    Is your account added as the ADMIN for the new site?

    When you created the site, did you put your email in as the admin email?

    Answer: No.

    I know because you did this: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/everytime-i-create-a-site-it-create-a-user?replies=4&view=all

    tl;dr? You have to add yourself as the admin for that to work.

    No. No. ADMIN is not Super Admin 🙂

    Set it to your email address when you make the site and you will be the admin for that site.

    There are two kinds of admins: Super Admin (you who control the whole network), and site admins (someone who is the admin of a specific site).

    If you want the sites to show up in My Sites, you have to be a member of the specific site. SuperAdmin has extra powers, which is why you can always see the sites, but you’re not actually a member of the site.

    Step back.

    If you want the site to show up in My Sites, you have to add your account as a member of the site.

    You sound very new to all this, so I would actually suggest you google that some, or grab a copy of WordPress Multisite 101 (https://store.halfelf.org/ebooks/wordpress-multisite-101/ – discount codes galore but it does default to a paid book and yes, its mine) and it will explain all about the roles and everything in a way I think you may find helpful.
