Greg Acuna started the topic Dropdown Menus Stopped Working in the forum Help & Support 1 month ago

Hey All…for the second time in some months the dropdown menus on our website http://www.planetearthlings.org have stopped working on mouse rollsover. The first time it happened I found a post which suggested installing the plugin “Enable jQuery Migrate Helper” and that fixed the problem. This time I have tried deactivating all my plugins one by one…[Read more]

Thanks! I’ll pass your plugin rec on to our developer–it’s free, so that makes it better than Beyond Multisite in one way. 🙂
Ray replied to the topic Advice for de-network-activating plugins in the forum Help & Support 1 month, 2 weeks ago

I haven’t tried Beyond Multisite, but there are a few plugins out there that are similar like Multisite Plugin Manager (https://wordpress.org/plugins/multisite-plugin-manager/).

Try that one and see if it works for your site.

Ray replied to the topic Advice for de-network-activating plugins in the forum Help & Support 1 month, 4 weeks ago

Hi Syelle,

There are two ways:

1. Write a script that will run across all your sites to search each post for the code containing the PDF and Google Doc Embedder. If you have an in-house developer, that person could write a WP-CLI script to do this.

2. If you do not have access to a developer, the alternative is doing a manual search on each…[Read more]
Syelle started the topic Advice for de-network-activating plugins in the forum Help & Support 2 months, 2 weeks ago

The cbox ol forum suggested we share this here:

We wish to de-network-activate the pdf and Google doc embedder plugins, and move them to being template-activated.

We tested this on the dev site, and all embedded code remains intact, and all code re-embeds as soon as the plugins are activated on any individual sub-site with an embedded pdf or…[Read more]

Christian Wach replied to the topic auth redirect from home URL to login page in the forum Help & Support 4 months, 1 week ago

I find that the Restricted Site Access plugin works perfectly for private sites. If you want to style the default WordPress login screen, there is a guide on the WordPress codex.

Best wishes, Christian
Greenroom started the topic auth redirect from home URL to login page in the forum Help & Support 4 months, 1 week ago

As of now I’d like our working group site to be visible only for logged in users, so I’d like to redirect from the home URL to the login page, if the user is not logged in yet. From what I understand from web search, people use a template and
if ( !is_user_logged_in() ) {
auth_redirect();
}

Is that a good way to implement it in CBOX, or are there…[Read more]

Ray replied to the topic Is [list-bpdocs] obsolete? in the forum Help & Support 5 months ago

The BuddyPress Docs plugin does not come with a bundled shortcode.

Outside of writing custom code, perhaps you can link to the documents directory page instead?

If you’re okay with that, you can find the document directory page at example.com/docs/ by default. For example: https://demo.commonsinabox.org/docs

Replace example.com with your site.…[Read more]

Hi Ray,

Thanks for your reply. The CBOX site was set up by an ancient hacker. His theory was that if he made things simple enough, other people would use it. He made a home-brew wiki that basically only he * I used….

I’m not familiar with php, or, Wordpress, or BuddyPress or any of the guts here. I do figure things out eventually. WP_DEBUG was…[Read more]

In our CBOX install earbook.eu the registration process is going smooth but: after receiving the final email confirming the registration, the login does´nt work – it says

However, there is no open activation showing up ,…[Read more]
Ray replied to the topic Is [list-bpdocs] obsolete? in the forum Help & Support 8 months, 1 week ago

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.

The warning is coming from the shortcode-exec-php plugin, which doesn’t come bundled with CBOX and is no longer available on the wordpress.org repository.

If you still want to keep the shortcod…[Read more]
Jan Hardenbergh started the topic Is [list-bpdocs] obsolete? in the forum Help & Support 8 months, 2 weeks ago

Is [list-bpdocs] obsolete? If so, is there a new easy way to list all of the documents?

We have a Commons in a Box that has been working well with little or no maintenance for several years. This statement is now causing problems. It started getting a warning recently.
