BuddyNotes + BuddyBoss Integration

Give Your Members a Private Space to Capture Notes on Their Profile

What is BuddyNotes?

BuddyNotes is a premium plugin that adds a dedicated Notes tab to every member’s BuddyBoss profile page. Members can create, save, and manage personal timestamped notes directly from the front end of your site. Community managers control which WordPress roles have access to the feature, and administrators can review all notes from a searchable dashboard. It’s a simple, lightweight tool for keeping personal records inside your BuddyBoss community without leaving the platform.

Key Features of BuddyNotes

Profile Notes Tab

BuddyNotes adds a dedicated Notes tab to every member’s BuddyBoss profile page. Members access their notes from the front end without needing to visit the WordPress dashboard.

Timestamped Entries

Every note is saved with the creator’s name and a timestamp. Members always know when each note was written, making it easy to track personal records or reminders over time.

Role-Based Access Control

Administrators choose which WordPress roles can create and view notes. Restrict access to specific member types, staff accounts, or open it up to all registered users on your site.

Admin Notes Dashboard

Site admins get a full sortable and searchable list of all notes in the WordPress dashboard. Quickly find, review, or moderate notes across your entire member base from one place.

Front-End Note Management

Members create, edit, and delete their own notes entirely from their BuddyBoss profile page. No backend access required, keeping the experience clean and contained within your community.
