    Hi there

    I am a bit new to cbox, so this was probably posted before.  I wonder if someone can direct me to the information on how to change my side menus to look as neat as this forum/group.  I have installed the child theme but not sure what changes to make. My side menus display as a bullet list.

    Thank you

    Hi Salome,

    It sounds like your CBOX CSS and JS files might need rebuilding.

    Can you put the following in your wp-config.php file:

    define( 'INFINITY_DEV_MODE', true );

    Then reload a page (any page will do) to see if everything looks okay? Afterwards, remove the code snippet above.

    Hi Ray

    Thank you for your reply.  I just want to check if I explained it correctly.  I attach a screen clip of the look of my menus on the side, and then of you group menus I like mine to look like.  Thanks for your help.

    Hi Salome,

    The unique sidebar menu only shows up when you are on a user’s profile page or when you are on a single group page.

    If you are on any other page, you will see the widget content that you have set in the WordPress admin dashboard’s “Widgets” page.

    Let us know if you have any other questions.

    Hi Ray

    Thank you for the reply.  When I am in the single group page my unique sidebar menu is not showing up at all.  Is there something I can try to see if it works?  Do you think it’s to do with the CSS or maybe the installation? I attach a screen clip of the part I don’t see in my single group view

    Thanks for your help

    Hi Salome,

    Your problem was the same as Daniel’s and I was able to find the problem.

    Can you read my post here and follow the instructions?

    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.

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