Cooking with BuddyPress
I’m sitting downstairs at WordCamp 2009 in San Fransisco. Up on stage right now, Andy Peatling creator of BuddyPress.
BuddyPress Notes
Why BuddyPress:
- BYOTOS ( Bring Your Own Terms Of Service )
- Custom branding
- Existing plugins ( WordPress plugin integration + BP specific plugins )
- University Intranet
- Profile
- Activity Streams + LDAP login plugin
- Blog tracking + More Privacy plugin
- Comment wires + Privacy group plugin
- Content groups
- BuddyPress allows you to choose your components ( pic )
- Built in social widgets
- bbPress integration ( will become easier in the up coming versions ) —Andy 5/30/09
Extending BuddyPress
- BuddyPress is as extensible as WordPress
- All BuddyPress components are coded and structured the same way
- BuddyPress functions allow you to talk to the theme
- Building your component navigation ( pic )
I tried to keep up with it all, but was also writing and editing my site. For more, ask questions!
