# [Plugin: BuddyPress Custom Posts] Example use cases

 * Some example use cases could go a very long way to promote wider use of this 
   plugin. It doesn’t even have to be hands-on use cases, or even involving code
   at all, but just some examples of basic use.
 * What can a developer do with this plugin, with fair ease?
 * **Edit:** I just read [this post](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-buddypress-custom-posts-where-is-the-interface-for-creating-custom-posts)
   and it actually provides quite a few good use case examples.
 * My #1 use with this plugin (though I wouldn’t be able to implement it myself)
   would be a group integration with [WP-Wiki](http://wp-wiki.org/) to mimick the
   [BP-Wiki](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-wiki/) plugin. My hope is that
   wiki pages within a certain tag/category could be displayed as a tab in a group.
   How about that?

 * Hi
 * BPCP was developed in parallel with EventPress ([http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/eventpress](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/eventpress))—
   so you can check out that code to see how it works. EP works both with and without
   WP, which was the reason BPCP was made.
 * At the moment, there is no support for displaying cats/tags and no metaboxes 
   for adding categories/tags/taxonomies from BPCP’s front end editor in BuddyPress—
   but that is something in the roadmap and just about the next thing I’ll be working
   on, apart from trying to solve a few bugs in both.

 * You mean with or without BP, right? I can’t see how it would work without WP…
 * Well the upcoming features sound great. Best of luck with your development mate!

 * Oops—with or without BP. Without WP would involve a bit too much work ;).
