  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Question Database settings for Wordpress Multisite?

Hello everyone.

Quick question:
Should one assign a site to the DB when importing/installing a WPMU site (WPMU = Wordpress Multisite), to the system or just leave it intentionally blank?

I mean since a WPMU website can literally host thousands of different domain names and websites in one installation, so it does not make sense to lock the database to the main WPMU site right? Or should it be (Related site), of main domain name/the main site there?

For a single standalone WordPress installation/website it would sense to lock/associate the database with the domain name of the standaloneWP site. But for WPMU?? :rolleyes:

Thanks in advance.
 
So of kind pointless function then... Well of course if you have many databases in your subscription account then that would make it easier to mange them by labeling them. So not fully pointless.

Thanks yet again Peter for your help!
