BuddyPress Deactivate Account

The BuddyPress Deactivate Account plugin allows users to deactivate/reactivate their BuddyPress account.

This plugin allows your users to reactivate their accounts later without losing any data.

This plugin can also be used to block users from logging to a BuddyPress site.

The integration works and requires the BuddyBoss Platform installed and activated on your website.

BuddyBoss Platform is a fork and forge of the BuddyPress plugin and bbPress plugin. Any plugin developed for the BuddyPress and bbPress plugin is supported by the BuddyBoss Platform.

You do NOT need to install the BuddyPress plugin or the bbPress plugin separately. BuddyBoss Platform acts as a replacement for both the plugins.
