BuddyPress Member Blog
Members who want to publish posts on your community site have to ask for backend access or use clunky third-party forms. BuddyPress Member Blog gives every member a frontend Editor.js blog interface that auto-saves drafts every 60 seconds and adds a Blog tab to their BuddyPress profile. Works standalone or alongside BuddyPress, BuddyBoss, and PeepSo.
