Release notes / BuddyPress Check-ins Pro
BuddyPress Add-on Plugin

BuddyPress Check-ins Pro

A basic check-in button is not enough for communities built around location: travel groups, local events, neighborhood networks. BuddyPress Maps and Check-ins Pro adds a mashup map showing all members and groups by location, a check-ins activity map, nearby member search, and a dedicated location profile field. Members can explore the community geographically, not just chronologically.
