Hi – I have successfully added a bbpress forum (Version 2.6.4) to a new site with a custom theme on WordPress (5.3.2). I’m wondering if anyone can help recommend plugins to tackle some (I think) fairly standard requirements.

I’ve tried a few combinations myself without complete success so I’d really appreciate some guidance.

I’m trying to –

• Allow user registration (sign up, get password, manage profile, password reminder),
• Admin manually approve/suspend/delete users,
• Prevent spam,
• Import users from the previous forum using a csv of username and email.

Sorry if it all seems a bit basic but I’m tying myself up in knots finding the right plugins.

I think you just need to google for the plugins and try them.

I use Theme My Login for managing the login etc.

Theme My Login

I use WP Approve User to add control:

WP Approve User

I use WP Security Question for the spam side of things:

WP Security Question

I customised my user table to show the security question answers in a new column.

There are probably other solutions, of which are paid, but the above help me sufficiently (for now).
