Strange posts claiming to be password protected?

  1. I just installed a BBpress forum using the plugin on my new wordpress site a few days ago and today I see two strange posts claiming to be password protected????

    One was clearly spam and the other weird so I deleted both users and all their posts. When I did a test post with my own test user this did not happen.

    Any thoughts on this?

  2. Those topics were created via the WordPress dashboard. The post status is hard coded into the meta box, and password protected content is only loosely supported in bbPress 2.0. Someone is currently making a plugin that blocks admin posting which will prevent this in the future.

  3. Thanks, I will wait for the plugin then. I have shut down the forums for now. I will experiment some more with them on my test system. Really like how bbpress looks and feels but I don't really need a forum :(
