* I found this at [StackExchange](https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/253229/how-to-use-same-email-for-multiple-users-in-multisite-version-4-7), and at first glance it seems like it might do the trick: * ``` add_filter('wpmu_validate_user_signup', 'skip_email_exist'); function skip_email_exist($result){ if(isset($result['errors']->errors['user_email']) && ($key = array_search(__('Sorry, that email address is already used!'), $result['errors']->errors['user_email'])) !== false) { unset($result['errors']->errors['user_email'][$key]); if (empty($result['errors']->errors['user_email'])) unset($result['errors']->errors['user_email']); } define( 'WP_IMPORTING', 'SKIP_EMAIL_EXIST' ); return $result; } ``` * …though it evidently only allows a total of two accounts (for probably fascinatingly silly reasons) – however, sounds like one additional account per email address might be all you really need to capture those attempted signups. * Hope this is useful, stay well 🙂 * Cheers, Max - This reply was modified 8 years, 3 months ago by [max](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maxfein/). * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Email Log] Multisite Support?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisite-support-256/) * Thread Starter [max](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maxfein/) * (@maxfein) * [8 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisite-support-256/#post-10135029) * [@sudar](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sudar/) Thanks very much for the truly rapid response! * Will start working with the plugin, look forward to seeing the admin interface feature. * Cheers, Max * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WP GDPR] Thrive Leads/Comments/QuizBuilder](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/thrive-leads-comments-quizbuilder/) * Thread Starter [max](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maxfein/) * (@maxfein) * [8 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/thrive-leads-comments-quizbuilder/#post-10107068) * [@kevinume](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kevinume/) thanks for the heads up re multisite 🙂 * **–> Please, will you also add WP Ultimo to the list?** * Please advise if there is anything specific to watch for and I’ll be happy to do some testing with 1.4.3 when its out. * fwiw, I usually run multiple networks from one WP using JJJ’s wp-multi-network plugin (see github); almost always using subdomain networks, often with a ‘mapped’ tld for subsite frontends (admin at network address). * Thanks again, Max * ps.

It would then be awesome to have an option to enable per-subsute settings so that subsite admins are able to have individual settings. * Further, it would be great to have this working effectively with [multi-network](https://github.com/stuttter/wp-multi-network)– for example: allowing one setting for all networks, or an option for individual networks to set default for subsites at that network, and per-network option to allow subsite admins to set their own values. * Kind Regards, Max * ps. I’d totally understand if these features aren’t immediate, and/or if they end up only in the pro version. - This reply was modified 8 years, 8 months ago by [max](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maxfein/). * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[W3 Total Cache] 500 Error when installing W3 Total Cache on Multisite](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/500-error-when-installing-w3-super-cache-on-multisite/) * [max](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maxfein/) * (@maxfein) * [9 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/500-error-when-installing-w3-super-cache-on-multisite/#post-8890377) * W3TC works great on multisite in my experience. In particular, I love that it gives network admins the ability to manage subsite settings without setting on a per subsite basis (as opposed to many of the other cache plugins out there). * I’m guessing that the issue here was to do with their server setup (eg. apache not set to look for htaccess files below a certain directory depth) or possibly something weird with their multilingual setup (which can often have issues with other plugins). * You should also make sure to look at this community project if you haven’t already( esp. if you’re running PHP 7+): [https://github.com/szepeviktor/w3-total-cache-fixed](https://github.com/szepeviktor/w3-total-cache-fixed) * Hope that helps some Patrick, let me know if you have any Qs about W3TC (or any other cache/performance solution). * Cheers, Max - This reply was modified 9 years, 4 months ago by [max](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maxfein/). * Forum: [Networking WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/multisite/) In reply to: [Multisite htaccess redirect non www to www](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisite-htaccess-redirect-non-www-to-www/) * [max](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maxfein/) * (@maxfein) * [9 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisite-htaccess-redirect-non-www-to-www/#post-8667670) * you can try this, though it assumes that you are not doing domain mapping to subsites – if you are (or do in future) then you’ll need to get a little fancier in the non-www to www redirects (unless you want all mapped domains to also use www)… also, ymmv 😉 * ``` ### BEGIN WWW and HTTPS REDIRECTS ## BEGIN non-WWW to WWW only for Network Subsites RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /(.*)\ HTTP/ [NC] RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !\.mainsitename\.com$ [NC] RewriteRule ^ https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,QSA,L] ## END non-WWW to WWW only for Network Subsites ## BEGIN HTTPS Catch-All RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /(.*)\ HTTP/ [NC] RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on [NC] RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,QSA,L] ## END HTTPS Catch-All ### END WWW and HTTPS REDIRECTS ``` * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [HyperDB – Mysqli and utf8mb4 support](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hyperdb-mysqli-and-utf8mb4-support/) * [max](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maxfein/) * (@maxfein) * [9 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hyperdb-mysqli-and-utf8mb4-support/#post-8513794) * LudicrousDB now supports mysqli – look at [https://github.com/stuttter/ludicrousdb/pull/6](https://github.com/stuttter/ludicrousdb/pull/6) * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[The SEO Framework – Fast, Automated, Effortless.] Compatibility Qs & Kudos](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/compatibility-qs-kudos/) * Thread Starter [max](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maxfein/) * (@maxfein) * [10 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/compatibility-qs-kudos/#post-7446736) * …also, fwiw think I spotted a samll typo on plugin desc tab: * > This plugin allows you to adjust over 90 site settings, including: > […] Sitemap > intergration. * intergration > integration * =) * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[The SEO Framework – Fast, Automated, Effortless.] About: Feature suggestions](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/about-feature-suggestions/) * [max](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maxfein/) * (@maxfein) * [10 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/about-feature-suggestions/#post-6958304) * Hi Sybre, have you thought about just using trello (eg. like [wp-rocket has done here](https://trello.com/b/CrUcz6Jy/wp-rocket-roadmap))? * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[EasyAzon - Amazon Associates Affiliate Plugin] SSL Support](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ssl-support-31/) * [max](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maxfein/) * (@maxfein) * [10 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ssl-support-31/#post-7067765) * I reported similar behavior (and possible solutions) re EA and EA Pro in Feb 2015 ( [http://support.boostwp.com/support/tickets/19817](http://support.boostwp.com/support/tickets/19817))… at the time, Chris said that it was not dev priority – hopefully this has changed. With the LetsEncrypt.org project out of beta and cPanel working on an official integration for v58 (due in a couple months) the web is about to get alot more https sites… just in time too as some major browsers are signaling that they’ll start indicating to users that non-https URLs are less/in-secure. Since trust plays a large role in on-site conversion this is should be an urgent issue.
