BuddyPress Sticker is a simple plugin that adds the ability for site members to add stickers – emoticons to there activity updates.
Installation is simply a case of installing and activating the plugin, no further configuration is required. If you want to add extra stickers you would copy your icons into the wp-content/plugins/buddypress-sticker/images/sticons directory.
Following installation a small circular smiley image is displayed in the activity update entry box, clicking on this reveals a large collection of possible stickers to use.
I think this plugin adds fum to any site where activity updates form a large part of member communications. The ability to load it up with your own custom stickers makes it very flexible for sites wishing to give a unique feature to the site. I would like to see stickers appear in other places on the site, for example in the site forums.
I give this plugin 9 out of 10, it’s simple and adds a fun feature to any site.
I've been setting up and managing BuddyPress social networks for a few years. I moved from Ning and other platforms and have come to BuddyPress looking to make sites with similar features to them.
BP Post Status adds three new Post Status options; alongside the usual publishing options, the post publishing box now supports Members Only, Friends Only and Group Post statuses, with Group Post providing a drop-down of available groups to assign the post to. It also adds a group posts tab in each group and provides the option to set a post as the group homepage.
BuddyPress Follow allows members of a BuddyPress social network to follow each other, it places follow buttons on each members profile and in the members page and adds extra tab's in each members profile page, one showing who is following you and the other showing who you are following.
