    After our site updated to WP4.7 the forums page is now a blank. Looking around I see some mentions that we should update to bbPress 2.5.12. (we are on 2.5.10) But it appears that is not so easy in Commons in a Box.

    Do we have to wait for a general CBox update? Or is there a way to update bbPress independently?

    Hi Tom, thanks for reporting this – I can reproduce the symptoms that you see on my test installs. The way to update bbPress independently from the rest of the CBOX plugins is as follows:

    1) Add the following line to your wp-config.php file:

    define('CBOX_OVERRIDE_PLUGINS', true);

    2) Visit your “Plugins” page in WordPress admin (or network admin) and update bbPress

    3) Optionally remove the line of code from wp-config.php

    Cheers, Christian

    Thanks for that info. Late yesterday I realized that if I disabled the CBox plugin, I could update bbPress. so I did that, the re-enabled CBox – that worked. Your solution is probably better.

     

    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.
