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.

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

Ray can correct me if I am wrong, but it appears to me that the image Ray identified as problematic is very, very large. Perhaps if you were to resize it and make it smaller, and then to upload that smaller image, that would help?

Over the past two years, we […]

A few thoughts:

1. What do you mean by “pull tweets into CBOX”? Are you thinking of something like what we have on the CUNY Academic Commons ( https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/twitter/ ), which pulls tweets from hashtags, user accounts, and lists onto a page, or are you hoping to have tweets feed into group feeds and notifications? I…[Read more]

I absolutely love that fellow CBOX users are giving each other advice!! That’s how we know there is a real community developing here. Thank you so much for being an active part of it.

Best,

You might find this plugin — written by the Commons/CBOX team — useful —

BP Restrict Signup by Email Domain

I’ve used it on several CBOX sites to good effect to restrict registration to particular domains, such as .edu and .org

No, CBOX is not a “dead architecture,” nor is it “junk.” Two people have replied to your message here, but the people on this forum represent a fraction of the developers who could potentially help you. Since CBOX is built on WordPress and BuddyPress, you might see if you can find a BuddyPress developer to hire for your project. Keep…[Read more]

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]

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

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]

When you go to the Dashboard and go to the Users tab, do you see a Forum role for this user? If so, what does it say?

Can you check out Settings>>BuddyPress and see if all those options seem correct?  Have you tried to refresh your permalinks – i.e. just go to that page and hit save (ensure you are not using default permalink structure).  I am copying Christian @haystack to see if he has any other suggestions.

Can you check out this – https://commonsinabox.org/groups/help-support/forum/topic/adding-icons-to-group-navigation/

to see if it solves your problems.  Thanks!

Thanks for reporting!

There are no recommended CBOX plugins for FAQ pages – but there are a lot of plugins that probably do a good job.  You can check out this link: htt…[Read more]

Can you go the Settings>>Forums and scroll down until you see BuddyPress Integration?  See attached image.  I’m thinking that a checkbox needs to be checked there.  Let us know if this fixes the issue.

The “Home” tab of a group shows announcements and activity.  To post something, go to the Forum tab and click to post a “New Topic.”   (You need to logged into the site.)  If this is not working click on “Manage” as an admin and ensure your group options are set up corrected (that you have chosen to have a group forum.)

Would you have any insight on this?  I think Bruce is talking about the reply by email plugin and new version of WordPress.  I haven’t heard of any issues…
