WPMUDEV BuddyPress Group Calendar

Description

The BuddyPress Group Calendar addon adds a dedicated calendar within each BuddyPress group, allowing members to create, edit, and view events directly on the group page without needing a separate event plugin. Designed for those who manage communities, private social networks, or BuddyPress-based member areas, it organizes meetups, meetings, and recurring activities in the same space where conversations already take place.

How to Download BuddyPress Group Calendar

BuddyPress Group Calendar is available for download here on Ultrapack. After saving the .zip file, go to Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin, select the file, install it, and activate it. With BuddyPress already active, the calendar tab will appear in the internal navigation of every community group.

As a community-focused add-on, it adds a decentralized scheduling layer to the BuddyPress structure, in which each group manages its own events without mixing its calendar with the main site’s calendar. It is a practical solution for those who have already invested in an internal social network and want to expand collaboration without migrating to heavyweight event plugins.
