What’s new in Directorist - BuddyBoss Integration 2.0
What it does
Running a directory and a community on the same site often means two separate user experiences. Members keep one profile for the social side and another for their listings, and site owners end up correcting data by hand. This add-on links the two systems so profile information stays consistent, and changes made on one side carry over to the other automatically. It requires the Directorist plugin, and it is built to sit alongside BuddyBoss on the same WordPress install.
Once connected, members can create, edit and manage their listings from their BuddyBoss profiles. BuddyBoss social tools such as activity feeds, private messaging and groups can then be used around those listings, and users get notifications about listing approvals, updates and community activity. Settings let you adjust how the integration behaves for your site. It suits business directories, membership sites and community-driven marketplaces that want listings and social features in one place.
Best for
- Business directories built with Directorist and BuddyBoss
- Membership sites that include member-run listings
- Community-driven marketplaces wanting social tools around listings
