Per-Site Plugins & Themes

With Pro, each tenant site can have its own set of plugins and themes - separate from your main site and from each other.

Before You Start

Plugins and themes isolation must be enabled for the site first:

1. Go to GrabWP Tenancy → Tenants → Edit the site
2. Under the Pro isolation fields, enable Plugins Isolation and/or Content + Themes Isolation
3. Save

Once enabled, the Extensions link appears in the tenant's row in the tenant list.

Managing Extensions for a Site

1. Go to GrabWP Tenancy → Tenants
2. Find the site and click the Extensions row action link
3. You'll see all plugins and themes available from your main installation

Making a Plugin Available to a Site

1. Find the plugin in the list
2. Click Install - it's installed into the tenant site's directory (copied or symlinked, based on the Install Method setting)
3. The tenant admin can then activate it from their own Plugins page

Removing a Plugin from a Site

1. Find the plugin in the list
2. Click Remove - it's removed from the tenant site's directory

Themes

The Extensions page has two sub-tabs: Plugins (default) and Themes. The Themes tab works the same way as Plugins: Install / Remove / activate per tenant, with the same Install Method (Symlink or Own Copy).

Plugin and theme actions (install, remove, sync, convert, copy to main, activate, deactivate) update the affected row in place instead of reloading the whole page, so the current tab and scroll position are kept.

Installation Methods

At the top of the Extensions page, you can set the Install Method for the site:

Method	How it works	When to use
Symlink	A symlink points to the main site's plugin files	Saves disk space; plugin updates on the main site apply automatically
Own Copy	Plugin files are copied into the tenant's directory	Tenant needs fully independent files

Changing the method and saving reconverts all installed extensions automatically.
