Elo,

Is there a way to group forums together; I’m thinking about if you tried to scale bbpress to a large forum (the largest I know) sorting through all those subjects/topics/forums to find the right place to post would be difficult.

Thoughts ?

EDIT: he, he, he, my long subject show’s a bug in the css ;o)

Give us an example of what you mean. Use the bbPress forums as an example if you can:

Installation — Getting it up and running

Troubleshooting — Fixing it when it’s broke

Templates — Making it look purtee

Plugins — Making it do what it ain’t supposed to

Requests and Feedback — Tell us what you’re thinking

I think I saw someone working on forum-grouping or someting. Otherwise, I can see what I can do.

Hi david,

I was thinking of grouping for table formatting on the front page, which I guess later on in development could have permission attached, so something like..

** Support **

Installation — Getting it up and running

Troubleshooting — Fixing it when it’s broke

** Extend **

Templates — Making it look purtee

Plugins — Making it do what it ain’t supposed to

** Any other Business **

Requests and Feedback — Tell us what you’re thinking

OFF-Topic – Doesn’t exists, just trying to show what I mean ;o)

did you have a look at the link I posted, if you ported that to bbpress you’d just have a long list of forums…. am I making sense ? :oP

Sounds like you’re looking for forum categories:

See? I knew someone was working on something like that.
