yes, you need my private groups plugin, an to enable topic permissions, which let you determine which groups can create topics and replies
Private groups
if (bbp_is_topic_sticky( $topic_id )) {
//do something
}

10 years ago would have been bbpress version 1, which probably explains it.
I’d need to look at how best to do a password protect, and it would be a couple of weeks due to other commitments, might well be a standalone plugin rather than private groups, as that plugin is now so full that I have to keep refreshing myself on how it works !

if you disable (as a test) any/all of Active Member 360 / Active Campaign / Buddy Boss Social Learner / BBPress / Learn Dash.
Does the problem go away, suspect the issue is related to those plugins
ok, where do you want to see this – on what screens?
I’m not aware that this was previously possible with bbpresss v2 (may have been with v1) – I am author of private groups.
2 questions
1. if password protected, how would you envisage the forum working – can you describe it’s set up
eg who would see the forum and when?
2. I could do with understanding the time saving over using private groups. In one case you allocated someone to a group, in the other you email someone a password, isn’t time taken the same? With passwords if you ever want to change who can see, you have to tell everyone the new password, with private groups you just change the user. With passwords everyone has to remember the password, and there is a risk that it is compromised. Please understand – I’m not arguing that you don’t have a valid proposition, just trying to understand whether I can make PG better, or if I can see you angle, add PW capability to my plugin.
button is where it should be – cross reference with say a page, and you’ll see it is supposed to be in the box – it’s just pages have other info.
there are none, basically bbpress is a plugin under wordpress, so if your wordpress site works, then bbpress should, with any in support versions of php and wordpress
ok, so it’s more a site than a bbpress issue.
so more fault finding needed.
try this
Check Email
bit of a cop out answer (ie ‘we can’t be bothered’), but yes you can manually do this using
bbP Toolkit
ok, but if you look at their profile
dashboard>users>edit user
what is their forum level eg participant, spectator, blocked
so what forum level do they have once they have cancelled?

can I just confirm that this happens then with both the bbpress shortcode [bbp-lost-pass] AND with the wp-admin lost password ?
which version of bbpress and wordpress?
can you test that a user gets a reminder if they click the wp-admin lost password ? Not suggesting this as a solution, this is a bit of fault finding.
can I just clarify that your site takes a tenth of a second longer to load with bbpress – yes ?
bbpress just uses much of your theme’s style
additionally you can use
bbp style pack
to improve it’s look
you set the default role in dashboard>settings>forums and when the users first log in the will get it allocated.
or go to
Dashboard>users>and amend their profile
or if you want to do it programmatically or directly in the database, then in usermeta you additionally set
wp_capabilities which already has their wordpress role, so you just add it to the array
to say
a:2:{s:13:”administrator”;s:1:”1″;s:13:”bbp_keymaster”;b:1;}
a:2:{s:10:”subscriber”;b:1;s:15:”bbp_participant”;b:1;}
a:2:{s:6:”editor”;b:1;s:13:”bbp_moderator”;b:1;}
This is really a theme/site specific issue, but is quite do-able.
