My website (www.seeanimalswild.com) is a blog giving news on the natural world and environment.

I am creating a short form forum with bbpress, to allow readers to add brief news summaries that might have been missed by the main blog.

What i am looking for, is the ability to link a readers brief news summery in bbpress, to an article on the subject, whether this is on the main blog, or on another long form forum on the website. Is this possible?

It seems simple, but it does require me to be able to add a link (or connect a link) to a post not made by me? Thank you for any help. I’ve included my website address, but the forum in question does not yet exist. It would also be useful, if someone writing a long form post on a forum, could link it to the brief summery themselves, but this may be to complex.

Thank you for your time and any help

If you are admin, you can edit a users topic and add the link yourself

Will that connect with the post itself? If so, that should work, thank you

if you add it as a link

ie using the link button you see above the new topic/reply content, then yes

Well, that was surprisingly simple. I’ll try to make it work tomorrow, and come back if it fails.
