Now you can create custom fields for posts like 'Name', 'Email' and 'Website' for anonymous users.

Post Meta suppliments bb-anonymous (ck mod) or can work on it's own to add additional custom fields to your posts.

It has the default code to demonstrate fields like WordPress's 'Name', 'Email' and 'Website' and also a 'Post Title' for admin/mods (which can be disabled).

Post Meta is very complicated as it has to "trick" bbPress in several places while getting along with other plugins so please test extensively for compatibility before using on a live site.

Human Test plugin or some kind of Captcha plugin is highly recommended when allowing anonymous posts.


  1. Version 0.0.1 is an early public alpha released for testing and bug reports.

    Do not use this on a live website until more fully tested.
    It is extremely complicated and is likely to have subtle bugs.

    Please see the screenshot to further understand it's purpose and abilities.

    it would be incredibly useful to have a way to notify guests of replies to their posts by email. any idea how to do that?

  3. This plugin is not meant for that.
    I have another plugin to do email notification that I may release next month.
    Until then use the Subscribe to Favorites plugins.

  4. How can I use the value of Post title for the link of a topic. For example, I want to change the link of a topic <?php topic_link(); ?> to whatever the value is in the first post's Post Title. So instead of adding a title, I want to add a url and use that as the link for the topic. In the front-page.php, I tried post_meta_post_title($text), post_meta_post_title(), $bb_post->title replacing topic_link(); but none of them ever worked. Any way to get around this?

    I think, that this plugin work well in my forum.

  6. When I have the plugin installed and I go to the administration panel at the URL /bb-admin/content-posts.php I get tons of

    Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /forum/my-plugins/post-meta/post-meta.php on line 234

    The previous query, SELECT post_id,post_meta FROM zt_bb_postmeta WHERE post_id=731 LIMIT 1
    is returning zero results and a simple extra check of is_array($meta) should do the trick before the foreach.

  7. Thanks for the report toomasr, I've put in a check now.

  8. When searching for a user in the admin interface I get a:

    Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /forum/my-plugins/post-meta/bb-anonymous-posting.php on line 234

  9. That means your haven't upgraded to the newer version because the line number would have changed.

    Be sure to download it again from here and replace the copy on your server.

  10. The meta author name does not display in post.php . In particular, post_author() returns an empty string when the poster is anonymous. I am running bbPress 1.0 Alpha 6 and the below plugins:

    Akismet
    BB Anonymous Posting (2.2_ck_mod_1.2.0)
    Human Test for bbPress (0.8.3)
    Post Meta for bbPress (0.0.1, re-downloaded zip file today)
    Wiki Link (no version)

    All other meta functions work (last poster, topic author, etc - see example at http://krcla.org/talk/topic/2 ) so it seems a little tweaking of the plugin may fix it..

  11. apparently 1.0a6 broke some things compared to the previous 1.0a5 version

    sorry to say this but it's not a priority for me to fix for the alpha, it's going to break with every change they make which means wasting an hour to track this down is pointless

    I'll try to make it work with 1.0a6 at some point but if you haven't seen my announcement in the main forum, all my plugin updates for 1.0a7 are suspended indefinitely until 1.0 beta

    Posted: 3 years ago #
  12. Version 1.0a5 doesn't work either for me..(http://gocoop.org/forum/topic/1 ) is it supposed to work on alpha 5?

  13. I'am runnig bbppres 0.9.0.4 . My site isn't live and i'm testing the plugin. When the Post Meta plugin is active, even whit all other plugins inactive, return an error message from topic in database, Table doesn't exist. I create myself the bb-postmeta table in database with php myadmin, and then, in bbpress plugins administration panel says that the PostMeta plugin is non active because they had a "fatal error". There are a conflict, y think, between de PostMeta plugin & the anonymous plugin, because when PostMeta is activ, anonymous not runs. I desactivate the anonymous plugin, and the conflict continue. I try to execute the postmeta.php and returns an error in line 34
    add_filter('post_author', 'post_meta_author' )
    Sorry, my english is catastrophic.

  14. When the wordpress integration is enabled it won't work. Could you fix it?

    Posted: 2 years ago #
  15. When a anonymous user post, after they register a single email, it shows just one avatar (for all kink of email)! How to fix it!?

    Posted: 2 years ago #
  16. Please be advised I am very likely discontinuing this plugin as it's
    overly complex and will be hard to maintain with constant bbPress changes.
