Quick update,

I have added an extension to Bebop, as well as many other fixes and enhancements. (pagination for one )/ I will be launching the latest version within the next day; im just waiting for a german language translation to be completed, and am giving everything a good test.

So, I am looking out for more ideas. What extensions do people want to see next? is there a feature that would be nice to have in Bebop? does documentation on obtaining oauth keys/secrets need adding?

If you think of anything, just open a ticket on github (https://github.com/lncd/bebop).

Thanks,

Dale

Sorry for the late replies – I have been quite busy!

Bebop was created from an academic perspective to aggregate OER content from around the web into BuddyPress.

There is nothing to stop anyone else creating a facebook /any other extension, just send me a pull request on Github and I will check it out! (https://github.com/lncd/bebop). There is also a Wiki on Github explaining the key steps to creating a plugin.

Bebop creates its own user_meta table because the options bebop uses is rather complicated; I decided to simplify this by temporarily using a custom table until such a point when I can switch over to the standard user_meta table. I will only ever do this if i can reliably and accurately remove data though!

As i have mentioned in the blog posts, the funding for Bebop has officially ran out so I cannot spend time from my ‘working day’ adding features. I will work on bebop as and when I can, in my own time, but i will always maintain that ‘paid’ work must come first. (I also do a lot of freelance work, not just around the ‘WP/BP’ theme.) Unless, of course, people want to ‘sponsor’ some particular work.

If you find bugs or have feature requests please add them to Github. This makes it easy for me to see what the priorities should be when I have some spare time to work on Bebop.

Thanks for testing and using bebop; its the first plugin I have made and it is nice to know that people are finding it useful.

I too have this issue.
