Hi Ray,

I see that you have the CBOX-OL version up to 1.10-beta1. Looks like great progress! Is there anywhere I could read more about the new functionality that CBOX-OL will add?

Thanks!

Hi Amanda,

Another place you can look is within the cbox plugin at commons-in-a-box>admin>plugins-loader.php. That’s the code that loads all of the cbox-associated plugins and includes versions for each.

In cbox 1.0.17 the buddypress version is 2.9.4 but you should check your specific installation. It on line 123 in my version.

I’ve been able to upgrade to BP3 by modifying commons-in-a-box>admin>plugins-loader.php on the following two lines:

line 123:  ‘version’           => ‘3.0.0’,

line 359:  ‘download_url’ => ‘https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/buddypress.3.0.0.zip’

Everything seems to work. Are there any other changes that need to be made to safely use BP3?

Hi Ray,

Thanks, that’s very helpful. I’ll be interested to see the new functionality in CBOX-OL. Is there a place where I could learn more about what you have planned?

At this point we’re looking at starting with something like underscores or FoundationPress and adding in the appropriate templating for BuddyPress and bbPress – a different game from child themes off of a Twenty_ theme or BuddyBoss/Kleo. We will release what we do as an open source theme for CBOX.

Can you say any more about the brand-new theme that will be coming? Perhaps we can cross pollinate.

Thanks for all the great work you all have been and are doing on CBOX.
