The WooCommerce BuddyPress Integration is a practical, easy-to-use plugin that fully integrates all WooCommerce shop data into the BuddyPress member profiles. As a result, this leads to better user experience and more engagement on your site.
The integration works and requires WooCommerce and 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.
