Widgetized profiles #17

Open boonebgorges opened 12 years ago

Users should have the ability to decide what should be displayed in different sections of their profiles. Examples:

In a super-ideal world, this would somehow interface with the WP widget system.

I know that this is a potentially enormous job. It's pretty sketchily described in our grant proposal, so we shouldn't feel like it has to be done in the most robust way possible. But at a minimum, it would be nice to think about some ways that users could have at least minimal control over what appears in their profiles.

imath has a pretty cool plugin, BP My Home, that does all the widgety goodness we want: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-my-home/

I'll take a look at the code to see how nice it is. But it's a good starting point.

If we decide it's good, I can just create some widgets for BP My Home.

I'd love to see this and provide some tight integration with the CBOX Theme.
