"Promote" bbPress forum topic to WordPress blog post?

   I love that the bbSync plugin turns WordPress blog posts into bbPress forum topics. But is there a way to do the opposite?. In other words, can you turn a bbPress forum topic into a WordPress blog post. I'd love the ability to "promote" certain forum topics into a WordPress blog post.

   That way, the blog can becomes a community blog, where members can submit content in the forums. And if the content is good, it can be selected by a moderator to make it to the front page of the blog

   I would love something like this. In fact; That is the exact functionality I was looking for and ended up looking into Drupal. I still haven't done anything with it yet... but if I could find a bbpress/wp solution, that would be so cool!

   hmmm... yeah. So it sounds like everyone wants it. Now we just need to find someone awesome who can make it happen.

   On a side note... it would be really cool if they released a 3rd product focused more around community. Basically just an integrated bundle of bbpress and wordprss with maybe some additional integrated features. That would kick so much butt!! Drupal sucks... so does everything else. But I might end up using it if the main feature I am looking for doesn't exist. :(

   @chriskalani,

   I think that's what the buddypress initiative is about.

   @Crowspeaker,

   Very interesting! I am really excited for this. I wonder if they are going to work on bbpress integration as well for this.
