Hey, I’ve been running a couple BuddyPress sites for a good number of years now, and well, the setups are pretty involved.

I’m curious, if there might not now be a few plugin combinations that create reasonably functional BuddyPress communities, out-the-box.

So, basically: everything works.

It’s not that important “how” everything works, but the setup creates a site that won’t be plagued by splogs or spam, obviously registration works properly, and there are usable community features that aren’t broken.

Ideal answers would basically be lists of plugins & possibly themes.

Hi @dainismichel

What set-up do you use?

[dainismichel]

sure, i’ll post my setups in a bit. LOL. i was asking for functional setups (lists of plugins).

[dainismichel]

i have an important project to finish, so i can’t post my setups right now — but honestly — i was hoping that others would post reasonable plugin and theme combinations that work well when installed. basically, combos where you can configure some settings, sure, but where you don’t have to do custom programming just to get basic community registration, splog protection, and member interaction to work properly.

basic community registration and member interaction this would work fine wihtout any plugins..just activate the bp settings which you would want active

splog protection- wp spam shield plugin works great for me
