Fix applied. Thanks again, Ray!

Hi Paul,

Glad that worked! I also noticed some styling inconsistencies on the Send Invites pages. I’ve added a fix here: https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/cbox-theme/commit/d099118ed8912b78f9d42dafe6a6b7a2322abfa6.

If you want to add this change, overwrite the /wp-content/themes/cbox-theme/assets/css/buddypress.css file on the server with…[Read more]

Thanks, Ray! I was able to implement this fix on both of my CBOX Classic installations. “Send Invites” is working again. As always, appreciate your help!

Hi Paul,

Thanks for the report. I was able to duplicate the issue with the group “Send Invites” tab.

The problem is due to an issue with the Invite Anyone plugin. I have updated CBOX Classic to use the latest version of Invite Anyone in https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/commons-in-a-box/commit/3da2bd9818368ac6423ff1151b64ab3325eb5e29.

Hi Jesse,

Regarding:

However, there is no way to do this through the Dashboard and when I try to update via CPANEL it knocks out my site. Most of the errors seem to be with the CBOX theme.

About the problem with CBOX Theme, are you able to access your server’s PHP error log? If you are able to, can you post the entries related to CBOX…[Read more]

Update: I was able to remove the warning by turning on “bbPress Forums” in the Commons in the Box settings.

Ray, I am getting this at the top of all of my subsites now. Any ideas what might be causing this. It does not show up on the main site of the multisite installation. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Jesse

Ray, thanks so much, this is exactly the information I needed! Also, great that the BP Classic plugin and CBox worked perfectly to keep me from making any ill-advised moves trying to get everything current.

Thanks for everything to the CBox team. I have been running multiple installations for almost 10 years without issue and it has been an…[Read more]

Hi Jesse,

BuddyPress 12.0 is a major release that has breaking changes for older BuddyPress plugins such as bbPress.

BP Classic is required so BuddyPress backward compatibility is maintained. Hence CBOX requires BP Classic until all our recommended BuddyPress plugins have updated their codebases to support BuddyPress 12. You can keep track of…[Read more]

The redirect snippet did the trick! Thank you both so much!

Hi Paul,

Can you try the following code snippet? https://gist.github.com/r-a-y/bc390ceb5d1872044e05b3aed35431c1

Save to /wp-content/mu-plugins/wpmu-subdomain-redirects.php. WordPress, by default, has strict redirect rules and for some reason, does not allow subdomain redirects even on the same domain. The code snippet should bypass this…[Read more]

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]

Thanks, Ray. I debugged as you suggested, and indeed the URL that’s outputted to the browser is the URL for the blog e.g.,
https://dh.sunygeneseoenglish.org
so BP Groupblog is behaving as it should.

I’m not running any must-use plugins and don’t have a bp-custom.php file. I’m using a child theme but haven’t made any recent changes to it.

¯_(ツ)_/¯

On my local installation of CBOX with BP Groupblog enabled, I am not running into the groupblog redirect issue.

Like the NOBLOGREDIRECT line, do you have any other code snippets in wp-config.php, wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php, wp-content/themes/cbox-child, or in wp-content/mu-plugins?

If not and you feel adventurous, you can try some…[Read more]

I’ve deactivated each plugin in turn (except CBOX), and none of the plugins appears to be the cause of the problem.

The problem happens with all groups, whether public or private. The “Blog” link in the left navigation for the group redirects to https://sunygeneseoenglish.org/wp-admin/

The other plugins seem fine to me, but if you want, you can disable them one at a time to see if one of them might be causing the redirect.

Some other potential things to check: Do you have any 3rd-party plugins running on the groupblog that might be causing the redirect? What is the privacy option set to for the groupblog in question?

I deactivated WordFence, but the behavior persists. I think the general behavior you were observing earlier — “if I attempt to visit a page that doesn’t exist on your site (https://sunygeneseoenglish.org/WHATEVER), the URL will redirect back to the homepage instead of landing on the 404 page” — was caused by this line in wp-co…[Read more]
