    Hi, 1st off I like what you’re doing here and the theme is really nice.

    I have been blogging for quite some time but this is my 1st WPMU & BP install.

    Here are the things I’m having challenges with. I’m sure they are likely just my mistakes somehow and so will be pretty easy for you, but they are confounding me.

    Thank you in advance, Patrick

     

    1. I added tags to my 1st wiki post and got this: see below the 1st bit of text entry. http://vaykays.com/wiki/tampa-florida-usa/
    I was logged in as admin and added the wiki while visiting site, added tags and got this. Not 100% sure if it was there before adding tags but didn’t see it.
    What’s the problem so I don’t do it again and what’s the solution?

    2. Your example wiki in your docs has photos. I cannot seem to find any photo or media button on my wiki editor. I want people to be able to ad photos, how can I do this?

    3. How and where exactly do I add photos to the slider? I have hunted for an hour or more. Do I first have to activate the slider somehow? It says ” If you enable the slider you can choose what type of content you want to display” in your options> Home page> slider.
    How do I get the photos into the slider and get it running?

    4. How do I find the logo dimensions so I can put my logo in to the header?

    5. Then when I added my 1st group right after I enabled members to be able to post and clicked  continue I got this as a web page. Then I clicked the back button and got back to the previous page and when I clicked continue again it let me complete all the steps (I was logged in as admin and on the outside of the site, see below:

    Hi Patrick –

    In terms of the warnings –

    It sounds like your hosting provider has PHP error reporting turned up too high. These kinds of minor warnings are not harmful to your site, and they should not be appearing on the front end.

    You may consider contacting your host to ask about a lower error level, but in the meantime you should be able to hide the warning messages by opening your wp-config.php file in your FTP client, and adding the following lines just above “/* That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging */”:

    ini_set( 'display_errors', 'Off' );
    ini_set( 'error_reporting', E_NONE );

    For the slider – check out –  https://commonsinabox.org/documentation/cbox-slider

    For the wiki – yeah, image rendering is not that user friendly – but you can use basic html tags.  I think there is a ticket out there to improve the interface.

    For the logo dimensions, I just play around with images and very quickly get to know what works.  Also depends on how tall you set header.

    Hope this helps.

    Hi Patrick,

    For the logo dimensions, it is 291×60 pixels for the original CBOX theme logo. You can create a smaller or bigger image. It works well if you have enough space in your header.

    You can change your header logo through Appearance>>CBOX Theme Options>>Options  then Header>>Logo Image

    Hey Scott and Steve, thank you very much.

    Thanks for the config file ad, it worked like a champ! Brilliant, thank you.

    Steve, thank you for the Dims on that, very helpful.

    ONE MORE question if I may please:

    There is that big free text area just below the slider. How do I populate that area?

    I went to home page added test text and it did not display anywhere on the page.

    Again, thank you.

    Do you mean this?

    If so, this is still a bug.

    Or did you mean something different altogether? If so, some steps to duplicate would be great! Thanks.

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.
