Ray replied to the topic upload MS Word Document in the forum Help & Support 3 days, 17 hours ago

Hi Mo,

There doesn’t appear to be a way to upload documents through BuddyPress Docs.

If the MS Word document is simple enough, maybe copy the contents of the Word doc into the editor? Or use another plugin that has a group files feature.

The MLAA has a fork of an older plugin, BuddyPress Group Documents, that you could…[Read more]
Ray replied to the topic BP and bbPress updates in the forum Help & Support 3 days, 17 hours ago

Hi Paul,

We’re doing some internal compatibility testing with bbPress since that’s a major upgrade. You should be okay to update to BuddyPress 5.1.2 though since the changes in BP shouldn’t be that disruptive.

We don’t have a set date for a release yet, but I’ll update this thread when we’re about to go through that process.

Updates to BuddyPress (5.1.2) and bbPress (2.6.3) have been available for a while now. Any known issues with updating these outside CBOX? Or is there another update of CBOX itself on the way?

Thanks as always!

Hi,

We are setting up a new instance at commons.liberalartsassess.sites.grinnell.edu, and would like to be able to upload MS Word documents through the Docs feature. Is there any way to enable this?

Thanks,

Mo Pelzel

Ray replied to the topic Export user profile fields for map in the forum Help & Support 2 months ago

Hi Daniel,

Are you trying to output your custom fields in a template somewhere?

If so, you should be able to use the BuddyPress Profile Fields API functions to output the specific data.

For example, xprofile_get_field_data() might be the function that you are looking for. Let’s say I created a profile field called “Website” and I want to…[Read more]

Hi,

I’ve added two custom user fields for Hometown and homestate so I can add these locations to a map. However I cannot seem to find a way to export these fields. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Daniel.

Ray replied to the topic 90MB error log in a week in the forum Help & Support 3 months, 3 weeks ago

Hi Matt,

Thanks for the report.

Can you tell me what version of CBOX Theme you are using? You can find the version by navigating to the WP admin dashboard and clicking on the “Appearance > Themes” page, followed by “Commons In A Box”.

The current version should be 1.1.2. If you are not running that version, please update CBOX whenever you…[Read more]
Ray replied to the topic Group Forum posts go to Spam in the forum Help & Support 3 months, 3 weeks ago

Hi Paul,

BuddyPress doesn’t handle the forum functionality in CBOX, the bbPress plugin does. I know the two plugins are similarly named; other people have had the same problem making the distinction as well!

Anyway, if you have the Akismet plugin activated, you might want to try disabling Akismet support for forums under “Settings > Forums” in…[Read more]

Paul Schacht started the topic Group Forum posts go to Spam in the forum Help & Support 4 months, 2 weeks ago

I’ve been trying to troubleshoot a scenario where a group member posts a new topic to a forum and two things happen: (1) the post content is stripped out and (2) the topic is marked as spam and is hidden.

I thought that this might have been a result of posting copy-pasted content from a word-processed document in Google docs or Word, but I…[Read more]

Thanks, Ray!
Ray replied to the topic Update BP plugins? in the forum Help & Support 5 months, 1 week ago

Hi Paul,

We have a maintenance release scheduled for the end of the month that will include these plugin updates. It should arrive on wordpress.org then or watch our blog for updates.
Paul Schacht started the topic Update BP plugins? in the forum Help & Support 5 months, 1 week ago

Hi!

BuddyPress, BuddyPress Docs, and BuddyPress Group Email Subscriptions all have updates available. If there’s a new CBOX release imminent, I’ll hold off on updating; but if not, I’d like to keep these plugins up to date. Any known issues with updating them independently?

Thanks as always for your generous assistance.

Jack Miller replied to the topic slider not visible in the forum Help & Support 10 months ago

The Async JavaScript plugin was causing the problem.
Jack Miller started the topic slider not visible in the forum Help & Support 10 months ago

I’m almost embarrassed to ask this question as it seems so… wonky.

The slider in the homepage templates works pretty much ok now, but it is NOT visible to anyone who is NOT logged in.

Any thoughts on how we could make the slider visible to all users, logged in or no?

Thanks.
Jack Miller replied to the topic update theme in the forum Help & Support 10 months, 3 weeks ago

Thanks, Ray. That’s exactly what we did yesterday. The update process worked as expected.

Clicking the update banner was problematic.

The banner did disappear when we completed the more “manual” update.

Again, thanks for your help.
