Thanks for the time/code but closed bbpress this morning and moved to discourse. Lost the perfect integration with wordpress but this is a way more convenient way for me to handle a community maybe too big for bbpress
sorry to disagree. This is not a 3rd party plugin issue but a feature from bbpress that should be optional. Or, at least, that admin should be able to not use.
You do not fight spam with manual approve. I got days with over a thousands spams, GL doing it one by one LOL. Spamming is anti-spam business, not forum job (using server anti-spam + CleanTalk, maybe I had to remove one post this whole year. Out of 300k posts).
Today, I had to approve over 350 posts. Some of wich I had no clue why any piece of code could think of it as spam. And that included topics I, as admin, moved from one forum to another.
Whatever, migrating to Discourse is on its way and should be up tomorrow (it is but not public). There’s no way I can use a manually validating forum anymore. Those 5 years with bbpress were fun (in spite of some epic crashes).
Same here. Also opened a thread in Requests & Feedback (https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/any-way-to-remove-moderation/). This moderation thing is just killing me. Got no message from anyone involved in dev team…
looks like there’s no notification. Not to user. Not to moderators.
And same “approval” procedure for topics users create or edit.
Cmon, maybe that’s a good options for some forums. But for active communities, this is just a pile of s…
This has to be moved to an option. With settings.
Whatever, had to approve 173 post and 18 topics today. And it’s only 5:30 PM here… And it’s a not very active day, no way I can face it on a monday.
