CAC Featured Content

The CAC Featured Content plugin is a convenient tool that can be used to feature site content:  blogs, groups, individual posts, members, or resources.   It is BuddyPress dependent, and will not work on non-BuddyPress installs.   Since it is a widget, you will need a widgetized area to put it in – the default CBOX theme automatically places it on the home page, to the right of the slider, but this is totally configurable.  CAC Featured Content is a recommended plugin, and can be de-selected if you choose.

  • Documentation: See plugin page.
  • Authors: Developed by Boone Gorges and Dom Giglio, in conjunction with the CUNY Academic Commons.
  • Support: Support for the plugin can be found here.

Screenshot on the right shows the widget’s settings panel.  Screenshot below shows the front-end display:

CBOX has its roots in the CUNY Academic Commons, which in turn was made possible through funding from The City University of New York itself.
