My bbpress was already active, so i didn't want to run the modified install file. Here is the code that's in the bb-admin/install.php file:<br /> <pre><code>// Anonymous User $now = bb_current_time(&#39;mysql&#39;); $bbdb-&gt;query(&quot;INSERT INTO $bbdb-&gt;users (user_login, user_registered) VALUES (&#39;anonymous&#39;, &#39;$now&#39;)&quot;); $bbdb-&gt;query(&quot;UPDATE $bbdb-&gt;users SET ID = &#39;0&#39; WHERE user_login = &#39;anonymous&#39;&quot;); bb_update_usermeta( &#39;0&#39;, $bb_table_prefix . &#39;capabilities&#39;, array(&#39;anonymous&#39; =&gt; true) );</code></pre> <p>Since my bbpress is already active, I have manually updated my users table by following the guideline in the above code. But, I have no idea what the last line of code means: <code>bb_update_usermeta( &#39;0&#39;, $bb_table_prefix . &#39;capabilities&#39;, array(&#39;anonymous&#39; =&gt; true) );</code></p> <p>Can you modify it so that I can manually update the db or do whatever needs to be done to make it work? Thanks. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/anonymous-posting#post-11012 Wed, 19 Sep 2007 21:30:52 +0000 matt123 11012@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Thanks for the code! Tried it out and it works. Right now akismet is catching a large percentage of the spam. If that changes I'm going to implement your solution! </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/anonymous-posting#post-10850 Fri, 07 Sep 2007 14:13:28 +0000 bbpressfriend 10850@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Replace (in anonymous.php):</p> <p><code> add_action('bb_new_post', 'bb_anonymous_posting_add_post_poster');<br /> function bb_anonymous_posting_add_post_poster($post_id) {<br /> global $bbdb;<br /> $name = bb_get_current_user_info( 'name' );<br /> $bbdb-&gt;query("UPDATE $bbdb-&gt;posts SET poster_name = '$name' WHERE post_id = '$post_id'");<br /> }</code></p> <p>with</p> <p><code> add_action('bb_new_post', 'bb_anonymous_posting_add_post_poster');<br /> function bb_anonymous_posting_add_post_poster($post_id) {<br /> global $bbdb;<br /> $name = bb_get_current_user_info( 'name' );<br /> $bbdb-&gt;query("UPDATE $bbdb-&gt;posts SET poster_name = '$name' WHERE post_id = '$post_id'");<br /> $bbdb-&gt;query("UPDATE $bbdb-&gt;posts SET post_status = '1' WHERE post_id = '$post_id'");<br /> }</code></p> <p>Now, new Posts are automaticly marked as spam.

It took me a lot of searching before I found it. Works like a charm only problem is that it tries to let you pm the anonymous person.</p> <p><a href="http://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/633" rel="nofollow">http://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/633</a> </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/anonymous-posting#post-5616 Sat, 17 Mar 2007 12:52:48 +0000 chrishajer 5616@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>This has been discussed and is not in development, AFAIK:<br /> <a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/238?replies=8#post-2066" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/238?replies=8#post-2066</a> </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/anonymous-posting#post-5614 Sat, 17 Mar 2007 09:37:50 +0000 poots 5614@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I haven't searched the forums yet, but i would like to enable anonymous posting. I feel anonymous posting stimulates discussion, instead of letting a forum just become a well managed resource board. Its certainly debate able.... but my goal would be an board that supports anonymous posting and was tag based. Allowing you to link to the board based on tags, so people could quickly jump into relevant topics of conversation. </p>
