CBOX offers a unique suite of features designed to give users of all skill levels the ability to create vibrant online communities.  Essentially a WordPress plugin, its intuitive, out-of-the-box set-up tool guides site administrators through each step of installation.  Its powerful theme, developed for Commons In A Box in collaboration with PressCrew and their Infinity Theming Engine, lets users fully customize their sites.  The plugins it manages are totally configurable from the CBOX dashboard, which controls updates and compatibility issues.  The sitewide wiki enables members to collaboratively build a knowledge repository.
