Multisite: Table creation for new sites just from backend

[Drivingralle]

Describe the bug I have created a custom REST-Endpoint that creates new blogs inside the multsite. In my usecase the Statify plugin is network-activated. As I open the new blog after the creation I get PHP notices that the Statify table is missing. WordPress database error Table 'local.wp_2_statify' doesn't exist for query SHOW FULL COLUMNS FROMwp_2_statifymade by require('wp-blog-header.php'), require_once('wp-includes/template-loader.php'), do_action('template_redirect'), WP_Hook->do_action, WP_Hook->apply_filters, Statify_Frontend::track_visit

Reason: The methods to create the Statify tables is only added to the wp-admin pages. The hook wp_initialize_site is called no matter the source of the call origin, but as Statify only hooks inside the admin the REST-Call doesn't initiate the table by default.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Install a WP multisite
2. Use some way to execute
3. Scroll down to '....'
4. See error

Expected behavior Table to be added not matter where what interface is used.

System (please complete the following information):

• Version 1.8.4
