This plugin adds two widgets to your WordPress MU/BuddyPress installation: Groups and Members. Use them instead of the Groups and Members widgets that ship with BuddyPress. They provide the ability to select which of the three tabs – Newest, Active, or Popular – will be the widget’s default view.
Version 0.2 of this plugin works only with BuddyPress 1.2. For earlier versions of BuddyPress, please download version 0.1 of the plugin.

Enhanced BuddyPress Widgets

Provides enhanced version of BuddyPress's core Groups and Members widgets

Venutius

This is a plugin aimed at BP users that do not use a theme specifically built for BP, for those that have the basic list provided by BP and want to make this look a lot more professional. It’s also aimed at those of you who know how to use CSS to turn this into a grid but find the results disappointing in that this technique fails to provide a uniform grid due to the squares being of inconsistent length.
What’s required is some nifty JavaScript that makes sure the grid squares are uniform that works with either Legacy or Nouveau themes – That’s where BP Directory Views comes in.
This is a pretty simple plugin that extends the work done by Hugo – hnla with his Style Modules work. This original code has been extended so that it resizes the grid tiles to uniform length every time the directory view changes.

BP Directory Views

Creates a uniform grid view for the Groups and Members directory pages.
