BuddyPress Message Attachment

Description

Extend BuddyPress’ private message feature by enabling attachments. This plugin enables users to send attachments in private messages. The type of file types allowed and maximum size of the attachment can be controlled by admin.

Screenshots

  • Thread details screen, with attachments displayed.
  • Plugin settings screen.
  • Media library, small icons to indicate a file was sent as an attachment with a buddypress message.

Installation

You can download and install this plugin using the built in WordPress plugin installer. If you download it manually, make sure it is uploaded to “/wp-content/plugins/buddypress-message-attachment/”.

If you are running a multisite installation, you can activate this plugin network wide or on individual sites. This plugin should work nicely irrespective of buddypress activated network wide or on individual sites.

After activating, make sure you change settings according to your liking/requirement. Settings can be found under Settings>Message Attachment in wp-admin or, on network admin screen if you have activated it network wide.

It works the way it is supposed to, but I was expecting more. Users can attach/upload files, but the recipient has to download the file in order to view it, even an image. Please make it work like Facebook or Whatsapp, so when the file is attached it gets instantly displayed on the screen. This will also serve as a preview for the user to consider sending the file or not.
