    Are there plans to upgrade Commons In A Box to BuddyPress 3 with the ability to use the BP Nouveau theme?

    I’ve been able to upgrade to BP3 by modifying commons-in-a-box>admin>plugins-loader.php on the following two lines:

    line 123:  ‘version’           => ‘3.0.0’,

    line 359:  ‘download_url’ => ‘https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/buddypress.3.0.0.zip’

    Everything seems to work. Are there any other changes that need to be made to safely use BP3?

    Hi Robert,

    The intention is to upgrade to BuddyPress 3.0.0 eventually.

    We always wait for things to stabilize in a point release and do not upgrade to major plugin releases immediately due to compatibility issues that may arise with other plugins.

    However, feel free to upgrade yourself if you are adventurous and are able to debug and report issues that might occur.

    As for Nouveau, we will not be using that with the CBOX Theme, but you are free to use any other theme with CBOX and BuddyPress to use with BP’s Nouveau template pack.
