Integration
BuddyNext
BuddyNext is Wbcom's in-house social-networking layer and Jetonomy is the forum and Q&A layer. Run them together and the forum adopts BuddyNext's look and lets BuddyNext own the page header and navigation, with no configuration.
Why it matters
How BuddyNext helps your community
- You get a complete community platform from one vendor: social profiles and a feed plus structured discussion and Q&A.
- The forum matches your social layer in light and dark mode without writing any CSS.
- Pages show one header and one navigation instead of two competing sets of chrome.
- There is nothing to configure: the integration turns on by itself when both plugins are active.
What it offers
Inside BuddyNext
- Auto-detects BuddyNext (1.0 or higher, community hub enabled) through the buddynext_loaded action.
- Inherits BuddyNext design tokens through the Jetonomy token cascade for accent colour, type, radius, and dark mode.
- Suppresses Jetonomy's own header and navigation so BuddyNext owns the page layout.
- Responds to BuddyNext's dark mode toggle so community pages switch theme instantly.
Best for: Owners who want the social layer and the forum from a single vendor.

Questions
BuddyNext and Jetonomy
How does BuddyNext work with Jetonomy?
BuddyNext is Wbcom's in-house social-networking layer and Jetonomy is the forum and Q&A layer. Run them together and the forum adopts BuddyNext's look and lets BuddyNext own the page header and navigation, with no configuration. It is part of the Jetonomy ecosystem, so it fits your community rather than sitting beside it.
Do I need BuddyNext to run a Jetonomy community?
No. Jetonomy is a complete community platform on its own. BuddyNext is an optional integration you add when you want what it brings.
How do I set up BuddyNext?
