Keep BuddyPress data, replace presentation deliberately
BP Builder Addons does not require a second member database. Inventory which values are native BuddyPress data, which belong to Youzify-specific fields or add-ons, and which are presentation settings before changing routes.
Map add-on capabilities
- Scheduler → Post Scheduler
- Polls → Activity Polls
- Two-factor authentication → TOTP Two-Factor Authentication
- Profile visitors → Profile Visitors
- Albums → Albums and protected media
- Frontend posts → Frontend Posts
- Advanced search → Member Discovery
- S3 → S3 and R2 Media Integration
- Blocking, restrictions, moderation, completeness, editing, reactions, sharing, myCred, and member types → corresponding native components and policy studios
Rebuild route by route
- Export and back up the current site.
- Generate a BP Builder Addons starter kit in a staging copy.
- Map profile fields and member types without deleting legacy metadata.
- Recreate global design and access policy.
- Validate guest, member, organizer, and moderator journeys.
- Switch one canonical route at a time.
- Keep rollback mappings until acceptance is complete.
Do not promise automatic conversion
A safe migration distinguishes reusable BuddyPress records from product-specific configuration. Validate custom profile widgets, shortcodes, media storage, point histories, and third-party overrides before removing Youzify.
