@highrollerusa Robins sarcasm is unhelpful and should be #moderated but I don’t disagree with some of the facts. I left WordPress entirely for Laravel a few years ago. My experience with the WordPress community is responses like Robins, and fundamentally broken and opinionated leadership who fail to get anything done, especially as it relates to easily developing new features and deploying WordPress sites not to mention in a secure.
I built this forum site with Laravel + Laravel as an alternative to this feature: https://StoneFabricatorsAlliance.com it’s so much easier to update with new features, we make rollouts weekly. It’s so easy. Doing this with WordPress was immeasurably more complicated for less secure, less stable and slower product.
I would encourage you to consider Laravel instead of waiting 7 more years as I did.
Hey @wcpreston – I’m available by phone [removed – didn’t need to post your number] or email spencerhill – theportlandcompany.com
Thanks for the reference Stephen. I had seen this but didn’t want to spend the time on it without a reference that it functions the way I need it since, as you mentioned, the setup was rather complicated. But thank you! I’ll give it a shot now and report back here for future users.
PS I wouldn’t expect this to be a core BBPress feature either but that’s helpful to know either way.
THANK YOU for your time Stephen.
Kay Hagen, a contributor on the WordPress Core, developed this Post by Email Plugin that could be extended, probably extremely easily, to support Custom Post Types. Which it could then be adopted into BBPress to create a support ticket or help desk scenario.
Interesting. Thanks for locating that. I’m confused now because when I change the pre-fix in settings to /contact-and-support/forums/ is says their is a conflict with BuddyPress. But I can’t locate ANY settings for forums in BuddyPress (maybe because of the 1.9.1 update today and it just got stuck with the old setting?)
