 * OK, I have a second Beta for you, based on your suggestions and issues revealed
   with my own testing. [https://installactivatego.com/jonradio-reveal-network-activated-plugins.v4beta2.zip](https://installactivatego.com/jonradio-reveal-network-activated-plugins.v4beta2.zip)
 * The following additions (i.e. – not in Beta2) are planned before Version 4.0:
    - Alternative to automatically deleting all Settings when this Plugin is deleted
    - Rewrite README (the documentation on this Plugin’s WordPress Plugin Directory
      page)
    - Warning message whenever any Plugin is both Network and Site Activated
    - Remove top Save button and Footer in What is Activated Where? when there are
      less than 13 plugins displayed
    - Add a second Admin page with nothing but documentation on it, in part to make
      up for removing all the explanatory text on the Settings page
    - Request Use Cases on documentation page for anyone who installs this Plugin
      and cannot live with its new Net-Only restriction, i.e. – why would they want
      to Site Activate it or install it on a non-Network WordPress install
 * Version 4.1:
    - Allow a choice of Sort Order in What is Activated Where? adding Activated 
      First as a choice
 * Version 4.2:
    - Display uninstalled plugins and remember their settings, preferably with overstrike
      rather than greyed out
    - Add Import and Export of Settings
 * Please note that the plugin will show up as: Manage Plugins in a Network/Multisite

 * OK, I have reviewed what you have suggested, and I do like it. But I do think
   that I will be better off releasing a Version 4.0 without the suggested add-on
   features: display of uninstalled plugins, and the import/export settings.
   Once
   we know that 4.0 is stable (i.e. – bug-free), then I can work on 4.1 with those
   two new features.I really appreciate the screenshots of a format for the Settings
   page.

   that. I’ll respond here.

 * You can now download it as a ZIP file at [https://installactivatego.com/jonradio-reveal-network-activated-plugins.v4beta.zip](https://installactivatego.com/jonradio-reveal-network-activated-plugins.v4beta.zip)
   
   No hurry on testing, but please let me know when you have downloaded and installed
   it, so I can delete the file. My main focus is to understand if this re-design
   would be an adequate replacement for you. I’m not expecting you to find every
   bug, which I will do later with a Test Plan.Thank you for your help!Please note
   that the plugin will show up as: InstallActivateGo.com Show/Hide Plugins including
   Multisite/NetworkThis is not the final Name, but the original name is no longer
   appropriate since WordPress now displays Network-Activated Plugins more widely
   than it used to.

 * After looking in depth at both of these errors, I realized how much code was 
   copied from the WordPress Core of Version 3.8 because no Hooks were provided 
   in the Core code where I needed to add code of my own to make the plugin work.
   Huge changes to that part of the WordPress Core since then would require re-doing
   the original effort that took many months.
   That inspired me to revisit the complete
   rewrite of this plugin that I did nearly a year ago, and I was pleasantly surprised
   at what I found. Of everything I tested, I only found one small issue with controlling
   the visibility of Network Activated plugins when trying to hide just Network 
   Activated plugins.Are you will to test the rewritten plugin? I have not looked
   at whether it converts Settings from previous versions of the plugin, so it is
   essential that you only install it on a test system where you would not risk 
   losing a previous version of the plugin’s Setting.If interested, please respond
   here.

 * I am able to replicate the error message that you are getting. But I’m also seeing,
   just before, an error related to both WordPress and PHP deprecating the use of
   Dynamic Properties in Classes:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       PHP Deprecated:  WP_List_Table::__set(): The property _column_headers is not declared. Setting a dynamic property is deprecated since version 6.4.0! Instead, declare the property on the class. in /home/rsshdev/wpnet.rsshdev.1320860.xyz/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6085
       ```
   
 * I need to resolve that first, and it will take some time as I don’t normally 
   use Classes and have a bit of a learning curve.

 * Two great suggestions! Once I get the current version working without any error
   messages, I’ll see whether it makes more sense to add these two features now 
   or in a Version 4 that I was working on last year.

 * I checked back on what I did after your first inquiry, and I made the mistake
   of trying to add a bunch of new features that would make it relevant to current
   versions of WordPress, and quickly got bogged down. I will try to revisit it 
   soon, and just make it work properly, with no warnings/deprecation errors for
   the current version of WordPress and PHP 8.3.

 * Thank you for your interest in the plugin. I only “just” regained ownership of
   it, along with five others. Now that I know that there is someone actively using
   it, I will prioritize the exhaustive testing of it with current versions of WordPress
   and PHP.
 * I have been using the time to update the other plugins: three have new versions
   already released; and a fourth needs so much work, much of which I have completed,
   that I had to completely rewrite it, but am now contemplating splitting it into
   two plugins, one for older versions of WordPress and one for newer.
 * To the best of my knowledge, the change of “Tested up to” from 4.6 to 5.8 was
   made by the interim owner after he verified that the current version of Reveal
   Network Activated Plugins also worked with then-newer versions of WordPress.
 * I should also mention that I plan to rename this plugin to highlight the additional
   functionality added over the years.

 * Note that you have to be logged in before the +Create Topic button appears.
 * Version 3.0.1 of this plugin expands support to versions of WordPress dating 
   back to Version 6.0, and PHP 5.6 for those earlier versions of WordPress that
   supported it (the current version of WordPress will not run on anything older
   than PHP 7.0). This plugin has also been tested with Version 8.2 of PHP running
   the current version of WordPress in both Windows and Linux hosting environments.
 * A huge THANK YOU! to [David Gewirtz](https://profiles.wordpress.org/dgewirtz/)
   for taking care of this plugin for most of its existence. Although I originally
   wrote it, a long term family illness meant I could not support it, and David 
   stepped in.

 * It’s been a long time since I was an expert on this Plugin, but my recollection
   is that you are better off defining the new Theme in WordPress-Admin-Appearance
   and use the plugin to specify your original Theme everywhere you want it.
