Alternatively, you can use the following command to download it from the terminal:

wget https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/buddypress.zip

Step 2: Unzip BuddyPress

Next, you need to unzip the BuddyPress file that you downloaded in step 1. You can do this with the following command:

unzip buddypress.zip
