BuddyPress SVN available (again)!
Posted on | April 2, 2008 | 1 Comment
when Andy Pealting sold BuddyPress to Automattic (makers of WordPress) a month ago, buddypress.org went into maintenance-mode. now that Andy had a chance to bundle the code into a handy SVN-repository, the site is back up again, giving every developer the chance to toy with BuddyPress. But what’s BuddyPressm you might ask?
BuddyPress will transform a vanilla installation of WordPress MU into a social network platform.
BuddyPress is a set of WordPress MU specific plugins, each plugin adding a distinct new feature. BuddyPress contains all the features you’d expect from WordPress but aims to let members socially interact.
got it?:) [note, this won't work with your typical Wordpress-install, it's for WordPress MU only!]
so far, BuddyPress supports extented user-profiles, private messaging, user-groups, photo-galleries & status-updates. since I’ve built a kind-of social-network on top of MU before, I’m very happy that BuddyPress will offer a clean solution for this approach soon…
