Controlling who can create new posts

  1. Hi there,

    I'm a first time bbPress user who just recently installed it on his website. What I would like to do is to control who can create new topics in the forum. Ideally, I (the keymaster/admin) would like to be the only person who can create new topics in the forum. Once topics are created, however, I would like anyone to be able to post within them.

    Has anyone ever heard of a plugin or way to make this happen? I can't seem to find a way to do it with the standard software.

    Thanks in advance!

  2. How about the hidden forums plugin?

    You will find lots of what you need in plugins:

  3. Actually you want my Read-Only forums.
    It makes it so only some people can post, everyone can read.
