This page contains instructions and links for configuring and using the ContentBox CMS.

All ContentBox CMS hosting accounts will have the files and database automatically added to new sites. The ContentBox Installation Page section below has details on completing the initial setup screen.

CFML versions supported

NOTE: When the ContentBox hosting plan is selected, the appropriate version is selected and the application is auto installed, etc.

For those trying to get ContentBox working manually, the CFML versions supported are:

  • ColdFusion 9.01
  • ColdFusion 10 (but the upload feature will not work due to CF10 bug with J2EE sessions)
  • Railo 4.0.X and above
