Hi All,

I’m having an issue with my bbpress >> add new topic functionality.

When a user is not logged in and clicks on “Add new topic” they are sent to a 404 page instead of login/register page.

Additionally, I would like to make my forum open to anyone to post, without registration. Is this possible?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Keep up the great work guys!

There was a similar bug report posted – the earlier response might be helpful… or maybe the original poster might let you know if they ever found a solution?

This might also do the trick (although it’s a bit kludgy):

There’s a plugin that allows anonymous posting, but all users are marked as with “anonymous”:

_ck_ wrote a cool plugin that lets you “add additional fields to posts like Name/Email/Website for anonymous users via Post Meta plugin”: https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/post-meta/

I don’t know how thoroughly it’s been tested, but if you are willing to run alpha software – it might be worth a shot!

They didnt post what version they are using, it may be a 1.0a6 bug
