 * I’ve written a plugin that I want to be active and available to admins of one
   of the websites in a multisite network. I’ve been trying to find the action/function
   to use so it won’t be activated on all sites.

 * I figured it out. I was looking for a variable or way to give the menu scope 
   by using a special function. The answer is much easier. I used this:
 *     ```
       if (get_current_blog_id() <= 1 ) {
       All of the plugin processing code goes here.
       }
       ```
   
 * All of the plugin code within if statement is ignored if the condition is not
   met. In my case, I wanted the plugin to be live only on the first subsite and
   not the rest so I used the blog_id for that subsite.
