Re: New install: Questions about Roles, Admin bar, shortcodes
#1 yeah, that’s kinda how it works right now. It’s in need of some love.
#2 https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-no-admin/ removes ability for users to post bbPress content in admin area.
#3 When doing it that way, there is a forum and topic selection dropdown on the right hand side above where you publish the post. The idea being that a user can select the forum and topic right there.
I really think that is more just a quick way for an admin to post a reply, though I can’t see why I would ever use it myself.
#4 probably a bug.
There are also plenty of code snippets online in order to completely remove the admin bar or remove menu’s from the bar if you want. Pretty much just decide what you want to do and check google for the code snippets or plugins.
