is_network_admin() │ WP 3.1.0

Checks whether the current page is a page in the admin section "Network Admin" of the multisite. For example /wp-admin/network/. Conditional tag.

Triggers on these pages:

This function is part of the group of functions:

  • is_admin() - any admin page...
  • is_network_admin() - the admin page in the Network Admin section.
  • is_blog_admin() - the admin page in the per-site admin section, and not the network of sites.
  • is_user_admin() - a special user page in the WordPress admin.

Does not determine whether the user is an admin! For this, use capability checks with current_user_can('manage_options').

Works based on the global variable $current_screen.
