Advices & tips for complex config

    Hello everyone,

    I have to set up a website for a medium-sized association (about 200 members). Here are the goals to achieve. Members can belong to several groups, groups can be public or private, forums public or private too (thx to bbp-private-groups) and there are community pages also where everyone can write (events, recipes, lists …). For UX I don’t want the user to fill multiple forms to login, and the data must be shared in profile pages (forum topics/replies, events, posts, recipes…)

    then, the question is this:

    Do I have to install buddyPress on multisite WP or not?
    If yes where should I install the plugins (main site or secondary site?)
    To stay simple I would prefer a single installation but then the question of volumes for backups.
    Hope I’m clear enough
    All your tips and tricks are welcome.

    Thank you
    bV

    Do not use multisite unless you absolutely need it.
    The face that you need to ask, strongly suggests that you should be using a single install.

    For the rest of your questions, install the plugins you think you need and test, test, test.
    If you still have questions, return to this topic and ask them.

    Thank you very much.
    As I thought, single install is best.
    Then how can I have different look for different forums eg chess, cooking, sports, dance, travel… and group pages ?

    If you are good with html, css and php, you can overload BP themes and make changes.

    afaik, you can do the same with bbPress templates for forums, but you should ask on their support forums.
