Building a new site running the latest WP BuddyP and BBp, I have a (perhaps stupid_ question.

What I want to achieve:
Buddypress user, who are member of certain groups have rights to some “extra” forums. (done)
“Approved” registred members should have access to “sitewide” all forums.
“Non-approved” new memebers (who are regsitred) should have access to a limited number of forums.

Should I do this with Buddypress, using some kind of Parent forums? Or must install a plugin and create new roles?

Thanks!
(link to an example or extra instructions would be nice)

several ways you could achieve this, and depend son how your site is set up.

if you have ‘approved’ forums as private and the rest as public, the you could user an ‘approve user’ plugin to prevent users accessing before approved – several out there – just google

wordpress plugin approve user registration

or you could use :

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/

to control who sees what forums
