I have WordPress instances with each in its own database. For an update I need to query all active plugins, that are stored in a table 'wp\_options' and accessible via

```
WHERE option_name='active_plugins'

```

How can I access *all* active plugin settings (spread over multiple databases) and output them in one single SQL result? I know the `database.tablename` syntax, but how do I go on from there with the above `Where` statement?

A request in a single database would look like this:

```
SELECT option_value
  FROM `database`.`wp_options`
 WHERE option_name="active_plugins"

```
