Managing Sites

Sites (or subsites) are the core of your WaaS business. Ultimate Multisite has 3 types of sites:

  • Customer-owned — Sites belonging to specific customers
  • Site Templates — Pre-defined sites that customers can select as a starting point
  • Main Site — Your primary network site

Viewing Sites​

Navigate to Ultimate Multisite → Sites to see all subsites in your network. Each site is labeled by type and you can filter by All Sites, Customer-Owned, Templates, or Pending.

Adding a New Site​

Click the Add Site button to create a new site. You'll need to provide:

  • Site Title — The name of the new site
  • Site URL — The domain/path for the site
  • Site Type — Whether it's a customer site, template, or regular site

The Copy Site option lets you create a new site based on an existing site template. When enabled, you can select which template to use as a starting point. Make sure Copy Media on Duplication is enabled to include media files.

Managing an Existing Site​

Click Manage on any site to open the Edit Site page. Here you'll find:

Basic Information​

The site name, type, site ID, and description. You'll also see the mapped domain, associated membership, and the customer account that owns the site.

Site Options​

Configure the site's capabilities and limits:

  • Visit limits — Maximum number of site visits
  • User account limits — Per user role limits
  • Disk space — Storage quota for the site
  • Custom domain — Enable domain mapping for this site
  • Plugin and theme visibility — Control which plugins and themes are visible, hidden, or pre-activated

By default, sites follow the limits set at the membership level. Setting limits on the site level will override the membership settings.

Associations​

Below the site options you'll find information about:

  • Mapped domains associated with the site
  • Membership the site is under
  • Customer account linked to the site

On the right side you can:

  • Enable/disable the site with a toggle button
  • Change the site type or reassign ownership
  • Set a site image/thumbnail (displayed on the frontend for site templates)
  • Delete the site permanently
warning

Deleting a site is irreversible. The site and all its content will be permanently removed.
