Thanks Ray – This helps a lot. They are at BP 2.9.3 now and want to cautiously climb up to the current version of BP (and CBOX).

Hi Scott,

Are you sure the MLA requires such an older version of BuddyPress? BP 4.2 was released in December 2018.

If that is the case, CBOX 1.1.1 is the release where we bumped compatibility to BuddyPress 4.2. The plugin versions for CBOX 1.1.1 can be found in the plugin manifest…[Read more]

Is there a way to figure out which versions of the CBOX plugins will work with an old version of BuddyPress – BP 4.2? The MLA for various reasons needs to stay at 4.2 but upgrade the CBOX plugins to the highest compatible versions.

Fixed it. In the settings for the new server, I had to set my multisite domain as the default.

Hi CBOX Community,

I’ve just migrated my CBOX Classic site to a new server with the same hosting provider. After lowering TTL for 24 hours, I used their “Point to another server” tool to move the DNS Zone file from the old server to the new.

The main site is located at https://sunygeneseoenglish.org

My multisite is configured to treat blogs as…[Read more]

Greg Acuna started the topic Dropdown Menus Stopped Working in the forum Help & Support 3 months 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 3 months, 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 4 months 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 4 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 6 months, 2 weeks 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 6 months, 2 weeks 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 7 months, 1 week 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]
Jan Hardenbergh replied to the topic Is [list-bpdocs] obsolete? in the forum Help & Support 7 months, 2 weeks ago

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]
