The plugin adds users to sites as members to that site. Which is not the same as being added to the network.
I can’t tell you what role they need for ‘buying products’ but on multisite, they actually do not need to be a site member to comment. All network members can comment on all sites as psudeo subscribers.
If you want all users added to all sites all the time, check out https://wordpress.org/plugins/multisite-user-management/
Thanks Mika.
I have tested out commenting and shopping (Woo) on a subsite without being a member and everything works as normal.
I understand why a site admin might add a user to their site directly if they wanted to give them admin privileges but are there advantages to either the network admin or the site admin/owner to having users as ordinary “subscriber” members do you think?
I think that entirely depends on what the users need access to and how you restrict it.
Yes of course. Ok, thanks Mika. You’ve been very helpful as usual 🙂
