Groups on Buddy press

I’d like to use Buddypress only for groups, like a facebook group… but on my site.

I’d like to know that once people are in the group, if I can make my post (as administrator) get emailed to them… in addition to being posted on the page?

Also, is there an app on an iphone or android they can use for the group? or just use the phones browser and go to the page?

Thanks!

Hi,

if you mean mailing blog posts to members and if you use BuddyPress only for it’s group component, you have better to use WP Groups plugin. You don’t need BP.

if you mean group notices, you can code something yourself or use this plugin or this one and send the post permalink to the group users.

Not exactly what you asked for, but i have no better idea.

For the phone question, i’ve never heard about such an app.

Very helpful. Yes, I use Yammer now, and I can have my post (not a blog post, more like a FB post) email everyone in the group.

Sounds like https://wordpress.org/plugins/groups-members-mail/ will work. Thank you!
