Description

Download

A plugin to build user communities all around WordPress, mainly it’s around having a well integrated profiles system. This plugin will provide all needed functions and widgets to make it easy and flexible the ways to show all information about a user. Also, there is some user privacy settings to permit which information to show in the profile page.

With this plugin, you can manage you user profiles and have a user list. For each user, a profile page is provided. The information shown in the profile page is based on your privacy settings. Also, you can select the user list order, ascending or descending, and ordering by different fields: ID, login name, display name or date registered.

WordPress avatars can be replaced by local avatars. And also a user picture at big size, is shown in the user profile page. This requires the Gallery component running. For the user profile pages, the labels for IM addresses can be replaced by your own. (As example, you can change 'Yahoo IM' for 'Skype'). In the WordPress login page, the WordPress logo can be replaced, and the links will be changed to point to your blog. (By default the WordPress logo is shown and the links point to the WordPress site).

All pages use templates, so you can create you own output template to customize and style all displayed pages. The templetes directory can be moved outside the plugin to prevent loosing your custom templates on update.

Features:

  • Paged user list and the user profile page.
  • Customize the logo on your login's page by uploading a new logo.
  • Manage user galleries and upload user pictures.
  • Moderate user pictures by using WordPress capabilities (Optional moderation).
  • Links posts authors and comment authors to user profile.
  • Use the local avatars if them exists. User can select which picture to use as Avatar.
  • User photo is shown in the profile page. A photo Gallery is also provided. User can select the picture to show from loaded images.
  • Settings page for profiles and gallery.
  • Templating system to create your own templates and styles for all pages.
  • An activity log to see what's happening on the site and who did it. Like an activity wall.

Future Planned Features

  • Custom user fields. For registration and profile.
  • Privacy settings per user.
  • Private messaging.
  • And some other under consideration.

    Hi buddy,

    I just found that your plugin is totally incompatible with “Pie Register” plugin. So, I would like to see this plugin integrated to your plugin, since “Pie Register” is too much more complete for user registration and security. The integration of your plugin with this one would be a great evolution. For private messaging, you could integrate your plugin with one of these two: “Private Messages For WordPress” or “WP Private Messages”, find the best one for you.

    Thank you.

    Hi,

    Just forgot to say one other thing, I would like to see in you plugin a realtime chat, just like in Facebook, or Gtalk.

    Thanks again.

    So far I really like the community plugin. I just need to figure out a couple things. Then I’m set. I’m looking forward to the updates you have planned.

    It would be really great to have the user manual for this plugin – any news on when those links will be live?

    0.10.3 Blank Activity Wall?

    I made a new back up of my site running 2.9.1 and installed Alkivia Open Community 0.10.3

    I created page named Activity Wall and choose that from the plugin options. Anything else I need to do? I created a new post and comment but it’s not showing up.

    I can say, this plugin helped me a lot when trying to achieve a community under Single WordPress Blog Users. The Design is tipically raw, but I would likely be pleased if i could donate to you for your extremely hard work.

  • Jacky Liang says:

    If this plug-in can include features like Community Forums, and things like BuddyPress, this plugin would be the best I’ve ever used in my whole life. Thanks for the hard work I like it so far :)
