### What does BuddyPress add to your multi-vendor site?

BuddyPress added to your marketplace site will allow your Store owners to sell their products on their BuddyPress social media profile. 

## Configuring BuddyPress from the admin dashboard

To allow store owners to sync their stores with their BuddyPress profiles and start selling, the admin needs to follow these steps:

- Locate the BuddyPress module and enable it.
- Install and activate the BuddyPress plugin.
- Navigate to **MultiVendorX → Modules → Integration** from the WordPress dashboard.

Once BuddyPress is configured in the admin dashboard, profiles will be automatically created for all store owners on the site.

## BuddyPress from the Store Owner's dashboard

Once all store owners’ profiles are synced with BuddyPress, they can navigate to their BuddyPress member page. Under the **Shop** section, the products from their respective stores will be listed individually.
