  2. Interesting thread. I'm curious, has anyone made a mod that will support role-based permissions on forums? I mean, every private forums thread I've seen is just trying to require a login to post / view the forum, but has anyone made a plugin that requires different roles to see specific forums?

    I'd like to have a forum for moderators or admins only (or based on a custom user role), has anyone got anything like that going?

    See my other thread here, on the same subject..

  4. Can I make another feature request for any private forum plugin, please? I want to have a private forum but still have the RSS feeds accessible. At the moment, if I use the plugin, the feeds become inaccessible without being logged in - i.e. services such as bloglines can't see the feeds. I know that making the rss feeds available, in effect, makes the forum "public again" . . . . I guess the ideal solution is another plugin to give the feeds a randomised code in their URL . . . . but even if this isn't possible, not being able to find the feed address without being logged in provides an adequate level of deterrent for my purposes.

    Can anyone help?

    ok. uploaded the new version of private forum. then there was this message that i have not installed the newest version of bbPress. i downlaoded the 3 new files and uploaded them. now i get this kind of error if i want to access the forum:
    Fatal error: Call to undefined function is_serialized() in /srv/www/httpd/phost/c/com/pytalhost/cessi/web/bbpress/bb-includes/functions.php on line 364

    greets topiQ

    PS: since this is as far i can guess not related to your plugin i posted it here and not on your site...

    EDiT: i solved the problem by installing the new version of the site options plugin. thanks a lot!
    but if i install the 3 new files in the bb-include i get this error:

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function option() in /srv/www/httpd/phost/c/com/pytalhost/cessi/web/bbpress/bb-templates/header.php on line 44

  8. My mistake on the private rss feeds issue. The first plugin in this thread (not the Selectable Private Forums plugin) did seem to make the feeds private. I've installed SPF.

    All working well, now. Thanks.

  9. Any news on the roles-based forum permissions. It is the only feature holding me back now ... I have been exploring all sorts of options involving more advanced forums (smf, phpbb etc ...) but those involve crappy bridges, none of which work well or look nice. I love bbpress' simplicity ... so, any way to restrict certain forums to certain users? I don't even need it to be roles-based. I'm OK just selecting users individually to have access to a specific forum.

  10. there are is a ticket in trac for role based forum access.. but it is a major change and might not be in atleast till release 1.0..

    its on the plate..

  11. How about a plugin allowing admin to select specific users who have access to a forum? ... doesn't even need a GUI, you could enter a list of names in the script.
