    That isn’t a features list, that’s a features-not list.

    Yeah, having trouble with W-P Forums. But not ready to start over the entire installation from scratch, which I would have to do I think with bbPRess…

    I’m looking for these features in WP: User registrations required for posts in forums, the ability to add images to forum posts, and possibly a link to a user image gallery…

    Got any ideas? Or do I need to go back to joomla or drupal?

    Thanks

    thank you chrishajer.

    Right now on the forums, I have major categories like tacky lamps, tacky decorations, tacky parties, etc. The members can post comments and photos. In Joomla, I’ve also linked the users with photogalleries they can create using Coppermine. I have set up moderation to approve people before they can join because they spammers were atrocious.

    I’ve used Community Builder to coordinate user registration, postings, and their galleries. I used Fireboard as the forum plugin and it integrates with Community Builder.

    A couple of problems I noted is that there was no way for the community to report bad posts or spam, which made more work for the moderator (me) having to approve posts until I got to know the people.

    What I’d like to have is a self policing community, spammer protection, and some automated filters for bad language and the like, with the ability to report abuse to the moderators. Then I’d like the members to be free to create as they like.

    So, I’m hoping to duplicate these features in a WP environment…

    Aside from that, there would be articles and news by editors that would be normal WP stuff.

    Maybe I should wait for WP 2.9?
