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] -

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

line, do you have any other code snippets inwp-config.php
,wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php
,wp-content/themes/cbox-child

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

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?

Hi Paul,
WordFence could be the culprit. Can you try temporarily disabling WordFence and then trying to check the groupblog link?

Ray replied to the topic Group Blog Links Redirect to Login Page in the forum Help & Support 7 months, 1 week ago
Hi Paul,
I notice that 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. I’m guessing a plugin is causing this behavior, which in turn is affecting the groupblog redirect.
It’s possible that a plugin is responsible…[Read more]

Hi Steven,
It sounds like you might need to reconfigure wildcard subdomains on Bluehost. Check out the “Setting up Wildcard Subdomains” section of this article: https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-install-and-setup-wordpress-multisite-network/#wildcard

Ray replied to the topic WP Grade Posts breaking upgrade in the forum OpenLab Help & Support 2 years, 10 months ago
@cbox_admin – It looks like WP Grade Comments 1.4.4 was not tagged on wp.org’s SVN, so the referenced download for CBOX OpenLab does not exist: https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/commons-in-a-box/blob/9c92ebb5bd410eeff8bc6859b7ece90bd8d160e2/includes/openlab/plugins.php#L362.
Can you take a look?

Hi Syelle,
Thanks for finding this bug. I can confirm the problem.
I have created a new issue with a fix:
https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/commons-in-a-box/issues/375In the meantime, before the next release, you will need to override the

Ray replied to the topic What is the correct way to translate all CBOX OpenLab texts? in the forum OpenLab Help & Support 2 years, 11 months ago
The OpenLab theme’s strings are covered by the
commons-in-a-box
plugin, so you only need to translate the strings from thecommons-in-a-box
plugin. -
Ray replied to the topic How to update cbox OL wording in the forum OpenLab Help & Support 2 years, 11 months ago
Hi Syelle,
I just posted a guide here: https://commonsinabox.org/groups/openlab-help-support/forum/topic/what-is-the-correct-way-to-translate-all-cbox-openlab-texts#post-9090
Currently, it requires patching a core CBOX file due to a bug, but then you can use a plugin to easily update the various text strings used across your CBOX site.

There was a new forum topic about customizing various strings in CBOX:
https://commonsinabox.org/groups/openlab-help-support/forum/topic/how-to-update-cbox-ol-wording/So I thought I would take a closer look at the Loco Translate plugin.
Loco Translate works quite well, but there is currently a bug in CBOX that prevents Loco Translate from…[Read more]

Okay, so you just want to change the URL to the “Contact Us” page? You should be able to just edit the “Contact Us” page directly from the “Pages” dashboard page and changing the page slug.
You can also access the “Contact Us” page through the “Brand Settings” page as well: https://commonsinabox.org/copy
Let us know if that is what you mean.

Ray replied to the topic Help us Remember How to Edit Help Widgets? in the forum OpenLab Help & Support 2 years, 11 months ago
The “Our Support Team” widget is currently hardcoded: https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/openlab-theme/blob/cc97bf7f84bd10fd8eb6dea3c1173377c1797c0c/sidebar-help.php#L34.
So this cannot be modified unless you create a child theme to override the sidebar-help.php template.
Can you tell us what you are trying to modify?

Yes, it’s possible, but this is not an admin dashboard option at this time. You’ll have to write some code so you can use your own custom default avatars.
This is where OpenLab sets the default avatar:

Ray replied to the topic What is the correct way to make a backup in CBOX OpenLab? in the forum OpenLab Help & Support 2 years, 11 months ago
Hi Kirsch,
Since CBOX OpenLab is a WordPress plugin, the backup process would be the same as backing up your WordPress installation.
Check out the WordPress support article on backups here: https://wordpress.org/support/article/wordpress-backups/.

Hi Kirsch,
The text strings you mentioned like “You are here” are a part of CBOX, not BuddyPress.
How are you doing the translations at the moment? If you are translating with help from a plugin like Loco Translate, you’ll need to translate for the

textdomain as well.You can also help out with the Spanish translation for CBOX…[Read more]

Ray replied to the topic Custom domain names for web sites in CBOX OpenLab in the forum OpenLab Help & Support 2 years, 11 months ago
Hi Kirsch,
Since CBOX OpenLab is built on WordPress, you can either use a WordPress plugin to handle domain mapping or you can natively set custom domains on a per site basis.
Domain mapping can be quite tricky to set up. If you’re interested in the built-in method that comes with WordPress, check out this guide:…[Read more]

Ray replied to the topic Open License Content Policy, Privacy Policy, Terms of Service for CBOX instances in the forum Help & Support 2 years, 12 months ago
Hi Evan,
We do not provide these types of policies with CBOX because the types of sites using CBOX can vary, but it’s a good question to ask.
WordPress ships with a default privacy policy template. You could probably start with that: https://wordpress.org/support/article/settings-privacy-screen/#using-privacy-settings-tool
