Overview
Selling digital products to an audience that has nowhere to talk to each other can feel flat. This plugin puts a social community on your WordPress site, so visitors can create profiles, post updates, comment, share photos and follow activity streams. Your digital store sits next to those conversations instead of in a separate corner of the site.
The plugin is built around community features that you can extend. Groups, polls, live messaging and notifications keep people connected, and the plugin works with other tools named by PeepSo, including WooCommerce, Dokan, LearnDash and TutorLMS. It suits e-learning hubs, marketplaces and membership sites that want members to interact while products are sold.
Features
- Social network inside WordPress: Users can post, comment, share photos and follow activity streams, all within your existing WordPress site, so the community lives where your content and store already are.
- Customizable user profiles: Members can personalize their avatars, cover images and profile fields, which gives each person a recognizable identity within your community.
- Live chat and notifications: Live messaging and instant notifications keep members informed about interactions as they happen, so conversations do not stall while people wait for updates.
- Groups and polls: Group forums support focused discussions, and customizable polls let you gather feedback from your community on topics that matter to your members.
- WooCommerce and Dokan connection: Connect with WooCommerce and Dokan to bring shopping into the community, including product reviews, cart management and multi-vendor support.
- Classified ads integration: Work with WPAdverts and Advanced Ads to run classified ads inside your community and target them to your audience.
- E-learning compatibility: Pair the community with LearnDash and TutorLMS to build an e-learning hub, with configurable course layouts and activity tracking.
- Mobile apps for iOS and Android: Mobile apps for iOS and Android are built with React Native and include push notifications, so members can stay in touch from their phones.
Best for
- Site owners selling e-books, software or music
- E-learning hubs that want an active student community
- Membership sites and marketplaces building member interaction
