MediaPress allows creating user gallery, sitewide gallery as well as group galleries too. This plugin only allows upload from activity.
If you are looking for a simple BuddyPress activity media solution, this may fit you. You may want to explore MediaPress to see if that fits your need.

Yes. Until the media feature comes to BuddyPress core, we will maintain and develop this plugin.

MANDATORY FOR SOCIAL ACTIVITY – TOP EXCELLENT SUPPORT

giuseppe2016 April 25, 2022

This plugin permits to have a way to add links, preview and write the comment, as in Facebook. I cannot imagine how would be possibile to have a social without this function. Said that, what is necessary to know about BuddyDev is their TOP EXCELLENT SUPPORT for customer that buy the yearly support included in the full serie of plugin (it’s impossible to imagine to build a Buddypress social network without at least 10 of their plugin). I STRONGLY recommend to use this plugin and the excellent support they provide to any Buddypress website developer.

This is great!
