Plugin / BP Profile Shortcodes Extra

Venutius

Description

Description

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.

It includes an button to insert the shortcodes into the Classic WordPress editor and a range of Gutenberg Blocks where appropriate.

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.
