<p>Problem<br />
In WordPress it is not possible to edit a published post and save it as new draft or pending review without removing the post from the frontend.<br />
In the moment, if the post status is set to something else as published, it is removed. This makes it impossible to create a private draft or set an edited post to pending review without creating a 404.<br />
For the BuddyForms front-end editing we want to have the feature to save a private draft or set the edit post to pending review without creating a 404.</p>
<p>With the BuddyForms Moderation Extension you can solve exactly this problem.</p>
<p>The extension creates a new Form Builder MetaBox “Moderation”</p>
<p>With 3 new Post Status</p>
<ul>
<li>Edit draft      –> Is a new created post or a new edit draft of an existing post and only available for your editing.</li>
<li>Awaiting Review –> You have finished editing and want your post to be moderationed and published.</li>
<li>Approved        –> Your post has been approved and is merged back to the live version.</li>
</ul>
<p>How it works:<br />
If you create a new edit draft, a new child post of your live post will be created as a duplicate of your live post.<br />
During the editing process you will edit the child post and your live version is untouched and available to the public.<br />
If you set the post to “awaiting review” and a moderationer (admin) approves your post, the post will be merged back to the live version and set to approved.</p>
<p>This will work for all the content, custom fields and taxonomies.</p>

<p>Mail Notification<br />
With the BuddyForms in build Notification System you can create mail trigger notification for the different post status to let your users and Moderators know, when a new post is ready for moderation or gets approved.</p>
<p>BuddyForms Moderation is the perfect plugin for you if you are in need of a solid frontend post editing moderation management.</p>
<p>It doesn’t matter if you let your users create products or Kitten Story’s. It just work fine with any custom post type related plugin.</p>
<p>The BuddyForms Moderation extension gives you full control of the user submissions without affecting the live version or even giving them the rights to edit a published post.</p>

<p>Are you looking for modern, robust, and sophisticated social network software? BuddyPress is a suite of components that are common to a typical social network, and allows for great add-on features through WordPress’s extensive plugin system.</p>
<p>Aimed at site builders & developers, BuddyPress is focused on ease of integration, ease of use, and extensibility. It is deliberately powerful yet unbelievably simple social network software, built by contributors to WordPress.</p>
<p><iframe loading="lazy" title="VideoPress Video Player" aria-label="VideoPress Video Player" width="750" height="422" src="https://video.wordpress.com/embed/wvvZgNwo?hd=1&cover=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen allow="clipboard-write"></iframe><script src='https://v0.wordpress.com/js/next/videopress-iframe.js?m=1770107250'></script></p>
<p>Members can register on your site to create user profiles, have private conversations, make social connections, create and interact in groups, and much more. Truly a social network in a box, BuddyPress helps you build a home for your company, school, sports team, or other niche community.</p>
<h4>Built with developers in mind</h4>
<p>BuddyPress helps site builders & developers add community features to their websites. It comes with a robust theme compatibility API that does its best to make every BuddyPress content page look and feel right with just about any WordPress theme. You will likely need to adjust some styling on your own to make everything look pristine.</p>
<p>BuddyPress themes are just WordPress themes with additional templates, and with a little work, you could easily create your own, too! A handful of BuddyPress-specific themes are readily available for download from WordPress.org, and lots more are available from third-party theme authors.</p>
<p>BuddyPress also comes with built-in support for Akismet and <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress/" rel="ugc">bbPress</a>, two very popular and very powerful WordPress plugins. If you’re using either, visit their settings pages and ensure everything is configured to your liking.</p>
<h4>The BuddyPress Add-ons</h4>
<p>WordPress.org is home to some amazing Add-ons for BuddyPress, including:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-attachments/" rel="ugc">BP Attachments</a></li>
<li><a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-classic/" rel="ugc">BP Classic</a></li>
</ul>
<p><strong>NB</strong>: BP Classic is a backwards compatibility Add-on for BuddyPress 12.0 and up bringing back the BP Legacy URL parser, the BP Default theme and BP Legacy widgets.</p>
<p>Go to <a href="https://profiles.wordpress.org/buddypress/" rel="nofollow ugc">BuddyPress profile on WordPress.org</a> to find them all!</p>

BuddyPress

It's a great addition to any website that focuses on community. Because it is entirely FSE compatible, you will be able to develop a community website using a theme that is based on FSE.

FSE compatible!

It already has many features, great dev team and it is highly extendable. 

The UI might not be great, but using a BP-supporting theme can change that. 

The way to go for niche social sites

Plugin is great, our theme supports it. But there is a bug with blank page for the registration page, user profile edit page etc. etc. if theme contains 'theme.json' file but no 'templates/index.html' file (not block theme)

It can be fixed by adding this code into your 'functions.php' file or in the 'after_theme_setup' hook:

remove_theme_support( 'block-templates' );



We have spend almost two days to manage this problem.

Blank registration page, profile page in classic themes with theme.json file

Get together safely, in your own way, in WordPress.
