The need to prioritize Documentation tasks

Following up our previous discussions about our various Multisite configs…

@vapvarun shared with us the great work he’s been doing into this area to prepare a documentation resource about it. He made 4 videos to explain the 4 possible BP Multisite configs:

BP Activated at the Network level, community area on main site of the network
BP only activated on one of the site of the network.
BP Activated at the Network level, community area on a secondary site of the Network
BP Multiblog config 🧗‍♂️

@im4th shared his feelings about all these set-ups : as we’re a short contributor team, we need to prioritize what we document according to the “popularity” of the set-up (in terms of number of people using it). Let’s pick the 2 or 3 most used configs and concentrate on their documentations.

@vapvarun picked the 3 first configs to work on a PR he has since submitted 💪 . He also plans to work on pushing PRs about these 2 other migrate tasks:

Documentation pages to use in BP Admin Screen help tabs

@emaralive has been referencing all BP Admin Screens needing a documentation link into this GH discussion. We decided to share migrate tasks about these documentation pages this way:

Open Floor

@emaralive made a very interesting “map” of all Admin places where BuddyPress is adding pages.

@vapvarun introduced Pooja Sahgal to the team, she will regularly contribute to BP Forums, welcome on board 😍.

Next Docs-Chat

It will happen on May 15, 2024 at 19:00 UTC in #BuddyPress. (We decided to postpone meetings by a week to fully test BuddyPress 12.4.1 & prepare a 12.5 minor release).
