Also good to know… get_sites now returns an OBJECT not a named array.

Please note that without specifying a ‘number’ attribute, this will only affect the first 100 sites! — By Stevish —
Beware, using
get_sites()
as a drop-in forwp_get_sites()
may not produce results as expected.PHP Fatal error: Cannot use object of type WP_Site as array in /path/to/code/that/uses/get_sites/method/file.php
It’s true that
get_sites()
returns an array, however, it produces an array of sites as objects. This is different fromwp_get_sites()
, which used to produce a multidimensional array of the sites, with their properties in a secondary array dimension (simply an array of site arrays with that site’s properties).If you’re attempting to loop through the sites to get the properties of each site with get_sites(), you’ll need to convert each site object to an array using
get_object_vars( object )
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.get-object-vars.php.See the example below noting the use of get_object_vars on line three:
This should return the following list of sites:
Site ID/Name: 1 / SiteNameOne
Site ID/Name: 2 / SiteNameTwo
Site ID/Name: 3 / SiteNameThree
wp_get_sites() ‘limit’ argument is now ‘number’.
wp_get_sites() converted this to $args[‘number’] for you, get_sites() does not appear to handle this parameter name conversion for you.

I’m seeing public = -2 in the query return. This is contrary to what is expected, either a 0 or a 1 Why is that? — By ldigregorio —
