Fixed it. In the settings for the new server, I had to set my multisite domain as the default.

Hi CBOX Community,

I’ve just migrated my CBOX Classic site to a new server with the same hosting provider. After lowering TTL for 24 hours, I used their “Point to another server” tool to move the DNS Zone file from the old server to the new.

The main site is located at https://sunygeneseoenglish.org

My multisite is configured to treat blogs as…[Read more]
Paul Schacht replied to the topic Trouble inviting multiple members to a group in the forum OpenLab Help & Support 2 years, 7 months ago

Just want to hop onto this thread for a moment to say that I’ve been working with Ed and Amanda on this project and couldn’t be more excited about it. At SUNY Geneseo, Amanda and I have taken the lead on building a new Center for Digital Learning, and we see multiple ways for CBOX-OL to help us accomplish some of the center’s goals. I’m a longtime…[Read more]

Thanks, Ray! I updated a week or so ago and have had no issues so far.
Paul Schacht started the topic BP and bbPress updates in the forum Help & Support 3 years, 4 months ago

Updates to BuddyPress (5.1.2) and bbPress (2.6.3) have been available for a while now. Any known issues with updating these outside CBOX? Or is there another update of CBOX itself on the way?

Thanks as always!
Paul Schacht started the topic Group Forum posts go to Spam in the forum Help & Support 3 years, 8 months ago

I’ve been trying to troubleshoot a scenario where a group member posts a new topic to a forum and two things happen: (1) the post content is stripped out and (2) the topic is marked as spam and is hidden.

I thought that this might have been a result of posting copy-pasted content from a word-processed document in Google docs or Word, but I…[Read more]

Thanks, Ray!
Paul Schacht started the topic Update BP plugins? in the forum Help & Support 3 years, 9 months ago

Hi!

BuddyPress, BuddyPress Docs, and BuddyPress Group Email Subscriptions all have updates available. If there’s a new CBOX release imminent, I’ll hold off on updating; but if not, I’d like to keep these plugins up to date. Any known issues with updating them independently?

Thanks as always for your generous assistance.
Paul Schacht replied to the topic Missing Activity in Feed for Public Site in the forum Help & Support 4 years, 4 months ago

That did it, Ray! Thanks!!

I’m not concerned about backfilling at this point – just wanted to figure out what was blocking the activity from appearing. I’d noticed that setting and should have thought to try changing it. I see that it also affects email notifications.

Anyway, thanks again!
Paul Schacht started the topic Missing Activity in Feed for Public Site in the forum Help & Support 4 years, 4 months ago

Hi again,

For one of the public groups at http://sunygeneseoenglish.org, the only activity that shows up in the group feed is “Group Memberships.” Blog posts, comments, etc. do not show up on the group’s home page or in site-wide activity.

The group’s home page is https://sunygeneseoenglish.org/groups/reader-and-text/

By contrast, this group’s…[Read more]

Thanks, Ray!
Paul Schacht started the topic BuddyPress 3.2.0 in the forum Help & Support 4 years, 7 months ago

On one of the CBOX sites I maintain, I manage my plugins outside CBOX. I’m wondering if there’s any reason not to upgrade BuddyPress to 3.2.0.

Thanks!
Paul Schacht replied to the topic Activation Key in the forum Help & Support 4 years, 9 months ago

I edited registration/activate.php and registration is now proceeding smoothly. Thanks again, Ray!

Thanks as always for the prompt reply, Ray! I will make this change and let you know how it goes!
Paul Schacht started the topic Activation Key in the forum Help & Support 4 years, 9 months ago

My new registrants are suddenly receiving a request to “provide a valid activation key” after clicking the activation link in the email they receive after registering.

I can see that this request is generated by a few lines in activate.php, but I don’t know what’s suddenly triggering the behavior.

In recent weeks I successfully implemented a…[Read more]

So … has that error been fixed? Is CBOX PHP 7 compatible?

Thanks for the quick reply – and glad I could help. 🙂
Paul Schacht replied to the topic Error upgrading default theme in the forum Help & Support 5 years, 7 months ago

…and, the problem is that the new theme file isn’t where it’s expected. There’s no zip file for the theme in wp-content/plugins/commons-in-a-box/includes/zip. Actually, the zip files from previous theme updates aren’t there, either – though they were there before I updated.

I’ve been managing plugins independently of cbox in order to apply…[Read more]
