BuddyCommerce Plugin Review

BuddyPress provides a platform that will let a group of members exchange their thoughts and expressions and on the other hand, we have WooCommerce that lets you sell anything online. Both of them have proper engagement with the public. BuddyCommerce will increase the chances of the user working properly on the shop that is created using the WooCommerce plugin. This plugin is an open-source tool to manage BuddyPress and WooCommerce together.

This integration between two highly-rated plugins will definitely engage the maximum no. of users on the main product page. When any BuddyPress user visits on his profile page then there are only limited tabs that are provided by BuddyPress core. Now, after activating this BuddyCommerce plugin, we can see additional tabs on the profile page of the member.

This plugin requires BuddyPress and WooCommerce installed on your WordPress Site.
