BP Profile Shortcodes Extra

Descripció

The ambition of this plugin is to provide all the shortcodes needed to create group and member profile dashboards using shortcodes. In addition is has wider features supporting general groups and member lists and the Activity “What’s New” form.

This is an extremely powerful plugin with many shortcode options allowing you to display a range of aspects from member profiles and groups.

This plugin now supports BP Follow, which although is out of date currently, I have a corrected version available for download. If the developers choose to update the plugin, their update will over-write the version that has been downloaded from BuddyPres User.

For the Block Editor support for shortcodes is either via blocks where appropriate or via the Classic block, from here you will see the BP Profile Shortcodes Extra dropdown menu to select the appropriate code. The classic editor does not render shortcodes as part of it’s preview capability currently, this may change as Gutenberg develops.

The conditions under which this plugin work successfully range from perfect to not at all dependent on which shortcode you use. The instructions reference “Tabs” without clearly communicating what this critical setting is related to – a profile Field Group, a Profile menu tab? To have sorted through the forum to source an answer to why, when using the instructions provided, an error of “The tab name is invalid” is exactly such an example.

What I thought would be complex for a redirect on my website was simplified into two shortcodes remade within the website and works flawlessly. Thank you so much for making such an amazing and easy plugin!!!

I just wanted to let you all know about the great experience I’ve had with Venutius and the BP Profile Shortcodes Extra plugin. I was struggling to set up my directory site to provide private messaging for users. I discovered the BP Profile Shortcodes Extra plugin and got it partially working. However, it took a bit to get it working exactly how I required. Venutius has been amazingly responsive and has made numerous updates to the plugin in the last 24 hours to make sure it works the way I require – just for me! And all this for a free plugin! I cannot recommend the plugin more highly, and also commend Venutius for his amazing customer service.
