BuddyPress has a new purpose

Published on April 27th, 2023 by Mathieu Viet

Hello! This post is the first in a series of five posts in which we’ll outline the new direction we plan to take regarding plugin maintenance and evolutions. After some introductory words, we‘ll focus on the new BuddyPress purpose that I believe we should adopt for years to come.

We haven‘t forgotten that, at the end of 2021, we had some conversations (here & here) about this « difficult to answer with a few words » question. These happened once the plugin’s active installs statistics went a bit under 200.000. Our WordPress plugin directory page’s “active installations” value suddenly changed from “200,000+” to “100,000+”—though the actual number only changed from just over 200.000 to about 190.000 active installation–making this decline seem pretty spectacular 📉. It was nevertheless a great opportunity to think together about how the plugin should evolve now that 15 years have passed since its birth.
