Hi. I’m setting up a fitness site with a forum and I’d like each member to be able to have their own ‘Training Log’ area in the forum, i.e. they start a post called “Jim’s Training Log”, and only they and I (forum owner) can post, or potentially the user can specify whether other forum members can view/comment on the post. Is this possible in bbpress? Is it as simple as each user starting a new post in the ‘Training Log’ category, then choosing whether to lock it or not?

Thanks for any responses, hope that makes sense!

In my opinion, a forum isn’t a great piece of software for this kind of experience. You may want to use BuddyPress, and setup some kind of private activity stream, or create an explicit hidden group for each partnership.

If you’re committed to using bbPress, you’ll need to do some custom development to use bbPress for this job.
