Multiple Site Manager
Version: 2.1.3 Build: 20120529

EE v2.5.2 - Build Date: 20120606

“Enable Multiple Site Manager” is set to yes but I’m not seeing the “Site” dropdown in the main navigation after enabling (screenshot attached).  Shouldn’t it be appearing there? How are we supposed to switch between sites?

On the CP home page I see a “Sites” link (screenshot attached) but it’s for managing the sites, not for switching between them.

This is a fresh install from today. Disabling extensions didn’t help.

Anna,

You should just click on the name of the site in the upper right of the control panel. Then select “View Sites”, “Edit Sites” or click on the name of the other site to switch to it. Maybe you already know that but it is different navigation from Exp Eng Ver 1.x

Hi Anna,

Is this your first use of MSM on ExpressionEngine 2?

The menu is now located on the right of the Control Panel, under the Site name.

If you don’t see it there, let me know.

Cheers!

I see it now. This is not obvious at all in the UI and so drastically different from V1.

Hey Anna,

This is not obvious at all in the UI and so drastically different from V1.

Oh, don’t get me started! The function and intent of that button/menu changes based on MSM. Really poor UI and UX.

Is there anything else I can do to help?

Cheers,

All set on this end.

Thank you.

Anna

Howdy Anna!

Awesome!

If you need anything else, you know the drill!

Thanks for using the Forums and ExpressionEngine.

Cheers,
