is_site_admin( string $user_login = '' )

This function has been deprecated. Use is_super_admin() instead.

Determine if user is a site admin.

Description

Plugins should use is_multisite() instead of checking if this function exists to determine if multisite is enabled.

This function must reside in a file included only if is_multisite() due to legacy function_exists() checks to determine if multisite is enabled.
