I’ve submitted changes for the first set of text to be refreshed/rewritten in Network Admin on the tracking ticket: #23163
The hope is to maintain a balance between action and description text.
For the main Network Admin index I propose this initial draft. Feedback is encouraged!
Before:
Tab: Overview:
Until WordPress 3.0, running multiple sites required using WordPress MU instead of regular WordPress. In version 3.0, these applications have merged. If you are a former MU user, you should be aware of the following changes:
- Site Admin is now Super Admin (we highly encourage you to get yourself a cape!).
- Blogs are now called Sites; Site is now called Network.
The Right Now box provides the network administrator with links to the screens to either create a new site or user, or to search existing users and sites. Screens for Sites and Users are also accessible through the left-hand navigation in the Network Admin section.
After:
Tab: Overview:
Welcome to your Network Admin. This area of the Dashboard is used for managing all aspects of your Multisite network.
The menus on the left side allow you to:
- Add and manage sites or users
- Install and activate themes or plugins
- Update your network
- Modify global network settings
Tab: Quick Tasks:
The Right Now widget on this screen provides current user and site counts on your network. New users and sites are easily created by clicking the ‘Create a New Site’ or ‘Create a New User’ links.
You can also search for any user or site in your network by using the search boxes. Users can be searched by entering all or part of a username or email address. Sites are searchable by path or domain, depending on which type of network you have.
