Anyway to do this on the edit form?

For moderating posts we want to change the reply author to 0, so the person can’t re-edit the post.

Why not change the Disallow editing time option in Settings > Forums to zero.

Because that would prevent *everyone* from editing their posts. Which is not an acceptable solution.

Surely there is a way to change the reply author without going into the admin panel?

I’m trying to use the bbp_edit_reply_pre_insert filter, without much luck.

The devs made it possible in the 2.6 version of bbPress I think.

Not sure how to do what you want with a filter.
