Integrations

BuddyBlog

The BuddyBlog plugin allows users to create/manage their blog/posts from the profile.

The integration works and requires the BuddyBoss Platform and the BuddyPress Simple Front End Post 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.
