BuddyPress Simple Events

The BuddyPress Simple Events is a FREE plugin that allows your BuddyPress members to create, edit and delete events directly from the profile page.

The integration adds a tab for creating events on each user’s profile page.

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.
