Description
BuddyMeet free WordPress plugin
BuddyMeet is a BuddyPress (2.5+) plugin that uses Jitsi Meet to allow the members of a community to participate into virtual conference rooms with video and audio capabilities. BuddyMeet’s features include:
A room where all members of a group can meet each other
On demand rooms among specific invited group members
Automatic customization of the room’s subject and the name/avatar of the participants
Customization of all the paremeters that Jitsi Meet API supports
Moreover, you can use the shortcode [buddymeet room=ROOM_HERE subject=SUBJECT_HERE] to add a conference room to any wordpress page. In that case, you have to pass any configuration by using the following shortcode parameters:
domain: The domain of the Jitsi Meet installation. BuddyMeet uses by default the meet.jit.si free service.
room: The identifier of the room.
subject: The subject of the room. If empty the room is being displayed as the subject.
password: A password for the room. The first to enter the room sets that password and all other participants have to put it to enter.

BuddyMeet uses by default the meet.jit.si service which is maintained by the Jitsi team at 8×8. Upon the initialization of a room, BuddyMeet sends the following information to the service:
The name of the current buddypress group as the subject of the call
The name, the surname and the avatar of the currently logged in user
However, if you want to use your own hosted installation of Jitsi Meet, you can just configure the corresponding domain via the “Manage” menu of a BuddyPress group. For more information about Jitsi Meet please follow the links below:
