Hi Brajesh,
Is there any progress on this project?- HansRuedi Keller on September 3, 2015 at 12:00 pm in reply to: [Resolved] Profile Privacy causing Theme crash WordPress 4.2.4 #346
Hi Brajesh,
I’m using BuddyDev Dashboard but got no message that there is a new version of BP Profile Visibility available while checking an hour ago. Hi Brajesh,
Seems we have to bump again… 😉
Thanks, HansHi Brajesh,
I think, this MicroBlog plugin will be an important add-on for a lot of BP communities. Some were asking for something like a group home page, but I would say a dynamic section is definitely more attractive!Hi Brajesh,
The first approach is what I was thinking about when I wrote «another UI idea could be to show something like #whats-new-post-in (the popup in global activity) for group admin where they choose to post in group activity (normal behavior) or in “News”» in the beginning. I agree with you, while using the activity logic/structure it should be easier to handle…Only group admins (eventually mods) would see the popup (select) to switch between Group Activity and MicroBlog. Posting incl upload would happen as usual in group activity. If “MicroBlog” is chosen as “channel” the post would appear in that separate section. What would show up in normal group activity? Kind of excerpt?…
With that popup (similar to the one containing “My profile” as default in global activity) the UI should also integrate with any theme…
Re configuration: perfect would be to have settings in Group Admin subnav with three things: 1. turn MicroBlog on/off for the group, 2. if MicroBlog is turned on, allow group mods to post or not, 3. text field to give the tab a name
Hi Brajesh,
Thanks for your fast reply.1. Correct. No categories/no tags. Re the post box: perfect would be to clone “what’s new”, if possible incl the upload button I’m using to include an image or pdf (you know that I’m using rtmedia, but any upload add-on like MediaPress should show up). That way it would be possible to introduce e.g. a new teacher, to show a new class room, to attach a pdf with information etc. – and apart from that the simple textarea provided by BuddyPress.
2. Yes, the group admin. I’m not sure if the group moderator should also be able… If he’s/she’s able what could be the way for the group admin to do a configuration like “group mod is able to post into microblog”? But group members are definitely not able to post.
3. No draft/pending or something like that. Just the way to post BP users know while using “what’s new”…
4. Yes, it’s important to create activity – for public groups in global activity, for private and hidden groups only in group activity. Email subscription should be possilbe. And if there is also a activity filter for these posts, then it’s perfect…
5. No, the posts don’t appear in the WP blog section, they belong to the group and honor group privacy. They look like what’s-new-posts. There is no way to format.
6. Plugin name could be “BuddyPress MicroBlog”. Name of the tab could also be “MicroBlog”. If there is any config UI e.g. to give rights to mods then there could also be a field to customize the tab name (“News” instead of MicroBlog…).Thanks,

Hi Brajesh,
I really would like to work with “Group Blogs” – the first thing we need are language files for the “Blog Categories for Groups” plugin.
And I would like to see the “Blog” tab only if at least one category is choosen…

Hi Brajesh,
+1 for “BP Group Blogs” – that would be a great addition for a lot of communities (cooking clubs or whatever kind of “special interest”).
The group admin would be able to write/publish blog posts in the frontend for his/her group. The posts should only be visible in the particular group (public, private or hidden) and not appear in the main blog. It should be possible to use it with single WP installations AND perfect would be to have ONE plugin as a simple out-of-the-box solution with no backend config.
