What Plugin Do I Need for Buddypress?

[Eric]

I’m using the Boss theme for a buddypress website. I’d like to be able to upload a csv file full of events. Most importantly, I’d like the maximum functionality for Buddypress. I’d like logged in users to rsvp with a click, if possible. I will have hundreds of events so the best search functionality would be great, especially search by category or location.

Should I get “The Event Plugin Pro” or “Community Events?” I didn’t see any specific mention of buddypress. Would Community Events be the best, if I wanted users to also be able to submit events?

Is there any other functionality for searching for a list of venues, similar to a location directory of some sort, or is it only events that are “items?”

I’d love the ability to review the event. Is that possible?

Thanks!,

Eric

Hey Eric,

We unfortunately have no special integration with BuddyPress for any of our plugins at this time.

I’d like logged in users to rsvp with a click, if possible.

This is not possible with any of our plugins at this time.

Should I get “The Event Plugin Pro” or “Community Events?” I didn’t see any specific mention of buddypress. Would Community Events be the best, if I wanted users to also be able to submit events?

Neither has special integration with BuddyPress, although just on the basis of which one offers user-submitted events, Community Events is the plugin that offers those features.

Is there any other functionality for searching for a list of venues, similar to a location directory of some sort, or is it only events that are “items?”

There is no venue directory feature, only the searching abilities that you can see in action at http://wpshindig.com/events. As you can see on this page, there is some preliminary location-based searching that can be done; but there is no other venue-search feature than this at this time.

I’d love the ability to review the event. Is that possible?

This question could mean lots of different things, but if what you mean is that users submit events and then you review the submissions before publishing, then YES this is possible with Community Events on WordPress – none of our plugins work on BuddyPress – but yes, on WordPress, with The Events Calendar and Community Events, you can set the “default status” for events upon submission to be “pending review” or “draft” or something like that. Then you can go over these items and selectively change them to “Publish” if you approve the submission, then delete or ignore the ones you do not approve.

I hope this information is helpful – let me know!
