Hi there,

on my page i use the wordPress function to do some automatted posts. however, they do not show up. Only after doing the repair tools they are available.

This is how i do it :

`
$post = array(
‘post_title’ => $topic,
‘post_content’ => $message2,
‘post_type’ => ‘topic’,
‘post_status’ => ‘publish’,
‘post_author’ => $authorId,
‘comment_status’=>’closed’,
‘post_parent’ => $parentID,
);

$topicid = wp_insert_post( $post, $wp_error );
`

The post_meta is not set properly. So what do i have to do to make it work?

There are a few functions to help with this:

• bbp_new_forum
• bbp_new_topic
• bbp_new_reply

right, still you need to give the meta information for parent forum. got it figured out how to do so, thx.
