BP Gallery/Media – Which plugin do people recommend?
-
Hi,
I found several plugins for media and wanted to know what people recommend. I am looking for something that gives users and groups the ability to upload images, video and audio as well as embed (I want to both host and allow people to submit comment hosted elsewhere). It would be great if they could rate it. Stability is very important, too. I found:
BP Album +: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-album/
BuddyPress Media Component with KalturaCE Suppor: http://wpveda.com/buddypress-kaltura-media-component/
Several HTML5 audio/video plugins: http://wpmu.org/10-beautiful-html5-video-audio-players-for-wordpress/
BP Gallery: http://buddydev.com/plugins/bp-gallery/Thanks!

I’ve used @sbrajesh‘s BP Gallery plugin since alpha stage February 2010 last year to current BP 1.0.4 in different sites and can say that it’s an outstanding plugin. You’ve read the cool current features of BP Gallery — images, audio and video uploading; able to set options for individual and/or group albums; multiple file uploading; embedding external videos; easy to style; etc. etc. etc — they are all working since beta. The plugin’s extensible, well-written and I give it 5-stars.
Will probably add some more kudos later on
Cheers.1. BP Gallery generates own tables in database in addition to interacting with other BP- and user- tables. Beyond that and for more specifics, you gotta ask @sbrajesh at Buddydev.com
Users can post images, audio and videos uploaded via BP Gallery in e.g. main site into respective blogs within a multisite installation using BP Gallery shortcodes.2. “if a user wants to add an image that would be associated with a post that was created by the admin“
Not exactly sure about what you meant. If Admin created a post, no other user role can edit that post unless it was a Super/Site Admin or a co-Admin of the site.
