Activation flow of a plugin in a multisite environment

    I’m learning plugin development and I came across this issue where I need to activate my custom plugin and from my research on this topic there are three possible scenarios:

    Network admin activates the plugin for the whole network
    Network admin or site admin activate the plugin for a specific site
    Regular single site installation activation flow
    When I activate the plugin as a network admin the plugin is activated only for the site with $blog_id = 1. other sites mark the activate state as activated but the plugins’ settings tab isn’t showing in settings. How and where can I start debugging this issue?

    That would be regarding a self-hosted WordPress.org site, which we can’t help with here.

    To clear up any confusion, WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two different entities: https://wordpress.com/support/com-vs-org/

    WordPress.org has complete documentation for self-hosted/installed versions of WordPress.org at https://wordpress.org/support/ and support at https://wordpress.org/support/forums/
