help with best way to set up site – BuddyPress, bbPress, Ultimate Member?
-
I have JUST started setting up a site. The site is for teachers that are in a particularly type of job across our district as a resource for support.
Here is what I want:
- some pages that are accessible to the public
- all communication between members be private and invisible to those not logged in
- a forum where certain aspects of our job can be discussed (also only viewable to members logged in)
- members can upload files (eg, lessons and schedules) that are only viewable by members
- member registration that allows for members to fill in certain information (like, what subject they teach and what school site they are at)
That being said, I have set up many WP sites, tried BP once about 5 years ago, but, essentially, didn’t need a social site at that time. Now I do….though I don’t know if it is really more the forum that I need rather than the social aspect.
Anyway, I have used Ultimate Member on another site for registration. What I liked was that I could make a form that had certain fields that needed to be filled out. I need something like that for this site. Does BP allow me to do that on registration?
I know that there are actually several questions here. I am wondering what plugins and set up would work best for what I am trying to achieve the above list.
