WordPress as a Community Network Site
Yeah, it’s not a joke. Soon you will be able to change your WordPress MU into a community network site, with the help of BuddyPress.
The standard features of BuddyPress are:
- Extended Profiles
- Personal Blog
- Private Messaging
- Friends
- Groups
- The Wire
- Status Updates
- Albums
Andy Peatling developed it. Now he has joined automattic, so it’s kinda took over by the Automattic . Automattic gonna release this BuddyPress very soon and as we can see community is everything over the internet these days.
Though it’s not officially released, you can download a copy of BuddyPress from SVN. You may refer their installation guide as well.
Another hi five for WordPress!
