Hi Jan,

I’m guessing you had some custom work done to your site where a developer added the plugin to your site and added a custom list-bpdocs shortcode.

Thanks, Ray! I updated a week or so ago and have had no issues so far.

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]

Thanks, Ray!

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.
