BuddyPress Featured Groups

Description

BuddyPress Featured Groups plugin allows creating/displaying list of featured groups a pleasurable experience.
It is highly flexible in the way the lists are displayed( slider, list, theme default, or custom).
It also provides a simple API for marking/unmarking groups as featured.

Features:-

• Multiple groups can be marked as featured
• Featured Groups can be displayed using shortcode or widget
• Featured Groups can be displayed in a banner above the groups directory list, with a choice of grid or two list layouts (simple and full)
• Featured Groups Can be displayed in the directory too
• You can use multiple widget/shortcodes
• Each shortcode/widget can be displayed as a list or a slider of groups.
• A default theme view for groups list is also supported, It lists the groups using groups-loop.php from your theme
• Easy API for marking a user as featured/removing group from the list of featured groups.
  For documentation, Please see the plugin page.

This is a fork of BuddyDev’s BuddyPress Featured Members, other than getting it to work for groups this plugin works in exactly the same way.

Reviews

outstanding plugin, but I have a request

Surrealer April 11, 2019 6 replies

I love your plugin, but there is one function that I really miss from “BuddyPress Featured Members”: bp_featured_members_display_directory_tab There is no tab created in the group directory. Is that a problem with my theme or is that feature not added?
