BuddyPress or BuddyBoss is required
Section titled “BuddyPress or BuddyBoss is required”This plugin extends BuddyPress activity posting. It will not activate if neither BuddyPress nor BuddyBoss Platform is installed and active. If you try to activate it without a compatible platform, WordPress will show an admin notice and deactivate the plugin automatically.
WordPress cron
Section titled “WordPress cron”Scheduled posts publish through WordPress cron (WP-Cron). For posts to publish on time:
DISABLE_WP_CRONmust not be set totrueinwp-config.php, or- You must configure a real server-side cron job to trigger
wp-cron.phpat one-minute intervals.
Sites with low traffic may find that WP-Cron fires late if no page requests are coming in. For reliable minute-level publishing, set up a real cron job. See the Cron and Publishing section for details.
User requirements
Section titled “User requirements”Members who want to schedule posts must be logged in. Scheduling is available to any logged-in user who has permission to post activities. No additional role configuration is needed out of the box.
For BuddyBoss groups: only the group owner or a moderator can schedule posts inside a group. Regular group members cannot.
