    Hi all

    I have bbPress installed and everything is working fine.

    I would like to use wordpress’s moderation tools.

    This post states that bbPress uses the same moderation tools as WordPress.

    Moderation and BlackListing

    I have entered test words in the moderation text box:

    Dashboard > Settings > Discussion > Comment Moderation

    If I use these words in a post nothing happens and the post is added to the forum.

    I’m logged in as admin and the words are used in the post not comments.

    Does the user effect the moderation?

    Is the moderation only on comments?

    I’d try this as a non admin/keymaster and see if it works. Say set up a test user as you intend your users to be. Normally admins are allowed to override any restrictions in WP and bbp.

    I have tried as a non admin but still getting the same response. How should the words be entered into the moderation text box – should they be comma or space separated.

    I think it might be a plugin that stopped it working. I turned off all plugins and now I think it’s working.

    If I use a moderated word now the post is not added but I don’t get any indication that the post has failed moderation.

    Should the user get a message if the post contains a word in the moderation list. If not is it possible to do this.

    no it just goes into moderation.

    I don’t know how to change this, as it’s fairly core to wordpress

    There are some details on what and why different status’ are reported depending on if the result is due to “Comment Moderation” or “Comment Blacklist” here:

    Moderation and BlackListing

    Depending on time, improved support for this may land in bbPress 2.6.
