We are considering extending our wordpress site with forum capbilities. The question is whether is possible or not to integrate mailman and bbpress. Any experience?

Thanks in advance.

You mean to pull from you bbPress database to populate the members of your mailman list?

In theory, anything that worked for WordPress to do that could be tweaked for bbPress. Just be careful that the default is to leave people NOT getting emails, so they can opt-in if they want. Otherwise you’re practically spamming

Thanks for your response.

In fact, I’m just interested in sent a mail to one moderator (or mail list of moderators) when every comment or topic is post. Other option could be to impose previous moderator revision to all comments before they are post. However, I have not found any plugin to do so. I tested Moderation-suite but it doesn’t fit our necessities. Any idea?

This plugin should send all moderators/admins an email whenever a post is made by any non-moderator/admin:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/moderator-new-post-notification/

Or alternatively, this one should hold all posts in moderation until a moderator/admin has approved it:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-moderation-hold/

Hope one of those does the trick for you!

Thank you very much johnhiler, I should have searched better.

I will try these plugins.

I tried these patchs. bb-moderation-hold doesn’t work properly and development seems to be discontinued. I searched similar functionality in other plugins but I didn’t find anything.

Any idea?
