In either snippet, make sure to set margin-left: 0px;

Hi Greg – when you log in to your site, your should see the “Customize” option on the top toolbar. If you don’t see it there, go to Appearance>>Customize on your dashboard.

In Customize, the last option is “Custom CSS.” Here you can override the CSS settings on your site.

Try adding either of the snippets that I provided above.

Hi Greg – Sorry for the late response. For your header image issue, the image is spilling over into the left background. I think that is why it is not minimizing correctly on mobile devices. I see this CSS:

div#icext-16f6e2e3 a, h1#icext-16f6e2e3 a {
top: 15px;
width: 512px;
height: 92px;
position: absolute;
left: 50%;
margin-left: -256px;
}

Thanks Ray – This helps a lot. They are at BP 2.9.3 now and want to cautiously climb up to the current version of BP (and CBOX).

Hi Joanna – CBOX handles updates for all the plugins we package (https://commonsinabox.org/documentation/plugins), and we ensure every plugin is cooperating, but we can’t guarantee “independent” upgrades.  Sites are free to upgrade to new plugin versions, but it might be a better strategy to wait until we make sure everything is working well t…[Read more]

Hi Michael – Did you update CBOX to the newest version?  We just released a new version to address this issue.  If that doesn’t help, let us know.  You can also look at this thread – https://commonsinabox.org/groups/help-support/forum/topic/wordpress-4-7-and-bbpress/

Hi Troy –

There are widgets that display Most Active wiki pages and Most Recently edited wiki pages, and ways to search the list of wiki pages by tag or content.  Wiki pages are essentially BuddyPress Docs pages that may or may not have associations with a group, so I don’t think a hierarchical display would be too difficult – but I am pinging @ha…[Read more]

Hi Troy – Sorry for the late response.  Yes, we will continue to base our default theme on Infinity Theme Engine.  We are also planning to do some upgrades to CBOX, thanks to a grant.  We plan to make a new “flavor” of CBOX that focuses on teaching classes on the platform – but that is four months+ in the future.

I am not sure if that is your di…[Read more]

Hi Troy – Thanks for trying out CBOX and yes there is a new version coming out soon, but can’t at this point promise you a date.  I am pinging @haystack to see if he might have some insight on these warnings and the general “Application Error” message.  Thanks for reporting,

Hi Doug – The Group Announcements text box is made possible with the BP Group Announcements plugin that comes with CBOX. (https://commonsinabox.org/documentation/plugins/bp-group-announcements).

You might want to open up an issue here – https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/bp-group-announcements/issues – so that the plugin authors are aware…[Read more]

Hi Jesse –

It sounds like your hosting provider has PHP error reporting turned up too high. These kinds of minor warnings are not harmful to your site, and they should not be appearing on the front end.

You may consider contacting your host to ask about a lower error level, but in the meantime you should be able to hide the warning messages by…[Read more]
