Allowing only the Forum creator to add the Topic??

    Hey everyone! I am wondering if it is possible to limit members from my site to only be able to add and edit topic under the forum they created? (If you didn’t create the forum, you can not add the topic under that forum)

    Thank you very much!!

    I use User Role Editor to allow subscriber to add Forums. Then, I put the Forum creating shortcode on a page.

    I’m using bbpress not buddypress.

    However, I want to restrict the Topic creator to only be able to create a Topic inside of the Forum they created. Is there a way to do that?? Thanks!!

    ok, so you could use

    Private groups

    then when you set up each forum ‘I put the Forum creating shortcode on a page.’ you could also set up a group for the forum, add the creator as a member and give him permission to create topics.

    It is a but labor intensive, but would work.

    How many forums are you planning ?

    Oh THank you for the reply!!

    There will be many forum creators!! (Every user are free to create a forum of their own!) Is it possible to make the setting a default for every forum??

    THanks!!

    By default, I mean letting the forum creator create the topic but not others (for every forums!!)

    Is that possible??
