If you’re brave, you could also try my fork of buddypress-docs. It fixes quite a few bugs (see the closed issues for a list), among which are a number of permissions-related issues. It also gives you a new theme which allows you to strip down some of the features which might be seen as unnecessary, like setting parent docs. However, it hasn’t been…[Read more]

@iurie, It should be fixed now. Give it a try, and let me know how it looks on your system.

@Ray, thanks! That solved the issue. It was just missing this header.

Jonathan replied to the topic The new MLA Commons in the forum CBOX Pioneers 10 years, 2 months ago
@iurie, I’m looking into that at the moment. That happens to us, too, if we change themes then change back to cbox-mla! Which is quite worrying. I just opened a thread about it here:

Jonathan started the topic reloading child theme causes errors with loading infinity functions in the forum Help & Support 10 years, 2 months ago
I’m using a child theme of cbox-theme, and I’ve been getting some strange behavior when I reload my theme. When I select a different theme in the dashboard, then select my child theme again, I get a white screen of death. Debug.log shows the error:

Jonathan started the topic The new MLA Commons in the forum CBOX Pioneers 10 years, 2 months ago
Hi everyone!
We at the Modern Language Association just launched a new minimalist theme for our CBOX-based website, MLA Commons. It’s a fairly major re-imagining of the CBOX theme. Here are a few of the things we did:
fixed a number of bugs, like the border around the text box I’m typing in right now
modernized the buttons to simple, flat…[Read more] -

Jonathan replied to the topic What does this button on the edit profile page do? in the forum Help & Support 10 years, 3 months ago
I just submitted cbox-theme issue #205 for this, and submitted a pull request that fixes it. I thought of submitting a pull request to BuddyPress for this (which would fix this issue directly in the function
bp_profile_group_tabs
, rather than just filtering the output), but since there also needed to be a check in the theme template to handle…[Read more] -
Jonathan started the topic What does this button on the edit profile page do? in the forum Help & Support 10 years, 4 months ago
I noticed that on the profile edit page there’s a button that doesn’t appear to do anything. On our mla install, this button is called “Profile,” and on a vanilla CBOX install, this button is called “Base.” Clicking that button has no effect.
What does this button do? If it doesn’t do anything, wouldn’t it be safe to remove it?
Screenshot attached.

Jonathan replied to the topic What's the best way to install a new font in a CBOX child theme? in the forum Help & Support 10 years, 4 months ago
@haystack Out of curiosity, how are you enqueuing your own stylesheets? That may indeed be easier than debugging from
dynamic.css
, which for me involves a ridiculous amount of grepping. -
Jonathan started the topic Using LESS with a CBOX child theme? in the forum Help & Support 10 years, 4 months ago
In the CBOX child theme’s
style.css
, there’s a comment line that reads:CBOX combines all the stylesheets into one file called dynamic.css. You can also write CSS using LESS.
Yet I can’t find anything about using LESS with a CBOX theme. Writing LESS in style.css or in assets/css/ doesn’t seem to be compiled to CSS. How can I use LESS with a CBOX…[Read more]

I’d like to install a new font in my CBOX child theme, but I’m unsure of the best-practices way to do that. I know I can copy over
assets/fonts/fonts.css
and modify it, but theniconsweetsregular
breaks, because the paths are relative tocbox-theme
. I can change the paths for theiconsweetsregular
font files to../../../cbox-theme/assets/fonts/

Jonathan replied to the topic Scope of bbPress plugin and associated issues in the forum Help & Support 10 years, 5 months ago
Your code didn’t seem to disable forums on child sites in my install at least. Maybe something somewhere wasn’t taking. I didn’t see any relevant error messages in the debug.log, and I didn’t get the fatal error about the undefined function, so it’s a mystery to me.
But I really like

Thanks very much for all the input. Using
define( 'CBOX_OVERRIDE_PLUGINS', true );
, I’m able to disable bbpress on the network and enable it on the root buddypress blog, but that unfortunately causes the issue where users lose capabilities. Instead, it looks like I’ll need to keep bbpress enabled network-wide, yet disable it for all child sites…[Read more] -
Jonathan started the topic Scope of bbPress plugin and associated issues in the forum Help & Support 10 years, 5 months ago
We run CBOX on a multi-site wordpress install. On our CBOX install, we noticed that enabling bbPress network-wide caused each child site to have forums enabled in their dashboards, which we don’t want to do. Our solution was to disable bbPress network-wide, and just enable it for our main site. This was working fairly well, but recently we’ve seen…[Read more]

Cbox-theme has been generating absolute CSS link URLs, i.e.
