    Hi! I’d like to create a “Welcome to CBox” box just like the one on the demo site. I’d like it to include a link to the register page. I was wondering if anyone could walk me through this. I apologize for the very basic question!

    Hi Allison –

    I think the “Welcome to CBox” section on the Demo is just a simple “Text Widget”.  To get a sense of the homepage setup – check out “CBOX Homepage and Slider” at  https://commonsinabox.org/documentation/cbox-slider

    The widget area you’ll want to use is “Homepage Top Right.”  So you can go to Appearance>>Widgets” and find the text widget and drag it over there, and configure it as you choose.

    You’ll probably want to use that same area for the Register page.  Here is a related thread that walks you through that process: https://commonsinabox.org/groups/help-support/forum/topic/newbie-where-do-new-users-sign-up/#post-1670

    Other stuff you might want to include in the top right widget area is the “CAC Featured Content” plugin’s widget.

    Let us know of any further questions.

CBOX has its roots in the CUNY Academic Commons, which in turn was made possible through funding from The City University of New York itself.

The Commons In A Box was made possible through the generous support of the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation.

The CUNY Graduate Center has directly contributed to the CUNY Academic Commons, housing the project since its inception, and has contributed to CBOX through its GC Digital Initiatives.
