Wordpress: difference between site_id and blog_id?
I'm trying to get some understanding of how Wordpress works and while inspecting the database I found that, in a multisite ins开发者_如何学运维tallation, there is a table called wp_site
that seems always holding a single record with a corresponding site_id
.
I cannot understand (nor find on internet) what is the use of site_id
when actually multisites seem to use wp_blogs
and corresponding blog_id
for identifying different sites.(http://codex.wordpress.org/Database_Description)
Can someone shed some light on what should be my understanding of site_id
?
Thanks

site
is a reference to a network of blog
s. There are efforts under way to allow WordPress to support multiple networks in addition to multiple blogs, but right now that's not a stock feature (which is why the wp_site
table only contains one value.
The wp_blogs
table contains all of the blogs for your entire installation, with each identified by the site
it's associated with.
This gives you a clean separation between networks, and (eventually) you'll be able to have different "groups" of blogs on one WordPress installation behave like distinct multisite installations.
