Block, Suspend, Report for BuddyPress

The Block, Suspend, Report for BuddyPress plugin lets your BuddyPress users block another member, allows the site administrator to suspend a member with the Suspend button on the front-end, and allows your users to report/flag inappropriate, abusive, or otherwise unacceptable behavior to the site administrator.

The integration works and requires the BuddyBoss Platform installed and activated on your website.

BuddyBoss Platform is a fork and forge of the BuddyPress plugin and bbPress plugin. Any plugin developed for the BuddyPress and bbPress plugin is supported by the BuddyBoss Platform.

You do NOT need to install the BuddyPress plugin or the bbPress plugin separately. BuddyBoss Platform acts as a replacement for both the plugins.

Note: The BuddyBoss platform has an inbuilt Moderation component that allows your members to block, report other members on their network and automatically suspend a member based on the number of times they have been blocked by your members.
