Very peculiar. Paul, if you’re comfortable with it, you could try (temporarily) running this small redirect logger that I’ve written: https://gist.github.com/boonebgorges/83ad69a81052c5ce43001d7c7523a586 Put it in wp-content/mu-plugins/redirect-log.php. Then, trigger the redirect. You should see a redirect-log.txt file at wp-content/uploads/.…[Read more]

For reference, here’s where the redirect happens: https://github.com/boonebgorges/bp-groupblog/blob/565b256ede1f2a8c89c480e78b97753d3257afbe/bp-groupblog.php#L1881

I suspect that $blog_id is incorrectly returning 1, and/or get_home_url() is doing something strange.

Have you by any chance updated BP to version 12.0+? You would have to have done…[Read more]

Hi Paul – It’s normal for the href attribute of the links to point to /groups/name-of-group/blog. But once you load that page, you ought to be redirected to the group blog’s home page, ie to name-of-blog.sunygeneseoenglish.org.

A few things to check:

– Go to Dashboard > Network Admin > Settings > GroupBlog Setup > Redirect. Ensure that ‘Redirect…[Read more]

Sorry for the error. I’ve created the tag and you should now be able to complete the upgrade via the CBOX upgrade panel.

Thanks for the ping. @r-a-y is correct that the best way to contribute translations is through https://translate.wordpress.org. The Getting Started section in the handbook is a good place to start https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/handbook/translating/glotpress-translate-wordpress-org/#getting-started

After submitting translated strings, one…[Read more]

Thanks, Ed. I’ve created a ticket to track the issue. https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/commons-in-a-box/issues/347

Thanks, Ed. It looks like the cron job is not scheduled. It would be called bp_groupblogs_cron. If you want to create it manually using wp-crontrol, it should work. /wp-admin/tools.php?page=crontrol_admin_manage_page&action=new-cron. Set it to ‘hourly’.

> for a very busy site (like a mature Commons in a Box OpenLab) the cron might be running too often!

This isn’t quite true. WP’s pseudo-cron is throttled in such a way that it can’t be run “too often”, and in any case, the individual jobs will only be run on schedule. But your general point is correct: on low-traffic sites, certain jobs may not…[Read more]

Hi all – CBOX OpenLab is specifically designed so that each site (aside from the primary site) is associated with one group, and each group, in turn, cannot be linked to more than one site. As such, it’s not possible at the moment to pursue the most natural solution, which would be to link more than one site to a group (thus pulling all of the…[Read more]

Excellent! Happy new year!
