How to improve BuddyPress speed and performance | BuddyBoss - The Ultimate BuddyPress T... - 0 views

  • Hyper Cache is specifically written for people who have their sites on low resource hosting providers. This plugin will make an enormous speed improvement and is recommended instead of other similar plugins such as WP Super Cache or W3 Total Cache. It will work better with BuddyPress and is quite simple to set up.
  • The problem was with the DB Cache Reloaded plugin. Not only would the notifications not go away but when individuals submitted anything on a wall or activity stream, this would not be published for several minutes. When I removed the DB Cache Reloaded plugin, the problem went away!
  • However, every additional plugin you install will need to request information from your database and the cumulative effect of having dozens of plugins is that your site will slow down. Use only the plugins that you actually need. Try to remove the rest.

An online community for educators built with BuddyPress · BuddyPress.org - 0 views

  • Build a professional learning community platform to help educators engage in conversation, share innovative ideas, discover and curate useful resources, document successful practices, and apply them in their own classrooms and schools.
  • Support and sustain continuity between in-person meetings and professional development opportunities. Help new constituents get up to speed and become valuable, active partners in learning communities.
  • drafted policies for user-generated content
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • After having tried nearly every plugin option (and combination), I settled on WP Types & Views (now called WP-Toolset), which allowed me to rapidly prototype and improve data structures. Then, I used Gravity Forms to create front-end forms to prompt educators to organize and classify their recommended resources.
  • This work has only just begun, but WP-Toolset has provided all the features we’ve needed; indeed it can be compared favorably with the Blocks, Views, Panes, and Panels modules and functions for Drupal.
