I see this on http://de.forums.wordpress.com and I know this is not the latest version running there.

Thank you for hoping with me ... ;-)

But again, YOUR question was regarding the http://de.forums.wordpress.com

I am a fresh user of bbPress, but as far as I can see that forum us the "old" stand alone version of the bbPress. At least the code says so in the RSS generator:

<!-- generator="bbPress/1.1-alpha-2539" -->`

In that case I am not the one that can help. I don't even know who is leading the bbPress project :-)

Hope you get the help you need from others here!

However I believe that is the correct place to alter the RSS feed :-)

Here is the code in syntax:

// Display the feed
	header( 'Content-Type: text/xml; charset=' . get_option( 'blog_charset' ), true );
	header( 'Status: 200 OK' );
	echo '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="' . get_option( 'blog_charset' ) . '"?' . '>'; ?>

	<rss version="2.0"
		xmlns:content="http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/content/"
		xmlns:wfw="http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/"
		xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/"
		xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom"

		<?php do_action( 'bbp_feed' ); ?>
	>

	<channel>

		<title><?php bloginfo_rss( 'name' ); ?> » <?php _e( 'All Topics', 'bbpress' ); ?></title>
		<atom:link href="<?php self_link(); ?>" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" />
		<link><?php self_link(); ?></link>
		<description><?php //?></description>
		<pubDate><?php echo mysql2date( 'D, d M Y H:i:s O', '', false ); ?></pubDate>
		<generator>http://bbpress.org/?v=<?php bbp_version(); ?></generator>
		<language><?php echo get_option( 'rss_language' ); ?></language>

		<?php do_action( 'bbp_feed_head' ); ?>

I can't alter any files, because I am requesting this change for an existing WP.com support forum, for which I am the moderator ( but not admin!). And after requesting it elsewhere, they told me to come here in this forum and put my request in this forum ...

BTW, I think you found just the title for the HTML page and not the rss feed.

I found this code in the bbp-topic-functions.php:
(line 2994)
/bbpress/bbp-includes/bbp-topic-functions.php

<title><?php bloginfo_rss( 'name' ); ?> » <?php _e( 'All Topics', 'bbpress' ); ?></title>

If you alter that you could probably get the RSS title to say whatever you'd like.

I also found this:
/bbpress/bbp-includes/bbp-reply-functions.php

line 1372

<title><?php bloginfo_rss('name'); echo $title; ?></title>

I have ony 2 days of experience with bbPress, but this might help you...?

And it is redundant, because there is a author field which I can see in my feed reader.

Maybe you can change this to “(title) – (author)” (or similar) …

I see this on http://de.forums.wordpress.com and I know this is not the latest version running there. So if this is changed in the latest version, just tell me!

Thanks in Advance!

Kind regards

It's still a Taglogic issue, as far as I see.

Anyways, looks like it is unlikely to get fixed in core.

I *think* 2.1 is supposed to be a bit better with catching the spam.

Your main problem, like you said, is allowing guest posts.

Do you have akismet enabled?

Also I would use something like http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-recaptcha/

For my Relationships Forum, obviously people are more inclined to seek help when they're not obliged to leave their public identities.

So this plugin leaves all Topics and Replies in a Pending and unpublished state.

The issue with Spam posts are these Spammers are also pumping the Tag with URLs or other rubbish.

From a logic point of view, Pending and/or Unpublished Topics/Replies shouldn't affect anything for a Published Topic.

But they are. I'm seeing Published Topics losing already established Tags from unPublished and Awaiting Moderation Repies which, in my opinion, is a bbPress bug and certainly not a logical workflow.

What are the issues you are having. People deleting/removing tags from threads?

Self policing is an open invitation to abuse the tagging system which is happening to me, at least.

I want to contribute ukrainian translation. But I don't see ukrainian language at http://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/plugin, and there is no possibility to add it.

How to add Ukrainian to the list of translations?

I guess my question is: how do you have them behave like the do here?

Where any tags entered into the tags field are simply appended to a topic, and previous ones remain untouched?

My assumption is that I'm doing something wrong, but it appears to happen on a fresh install with the default template.

But it isn't happening here! I can add tags and the previous ones remain, so maybe there's a but in the default template, but not in the core?

The next poster's message (regardless of user role) overwrites my tags or erases them all together.

In fact, every post overwrites the previous tags.

Que? Have I setup something wrong? This happened in a fresh install with the default template too.

I would like to have the same effect happen for the bb-press plugin when someone accesses http://website.com/forums

How can I set this up?
