Hi, i just added a bbpress forum to my website. You have to be register to be able to post something(wich i want i don’t want anybody to be able to post something). But where do i have to register the new users? On the same database that my admin credidentials? Or do i have to create an other database? Right now anyone can register and already two people did it, wich i guess are bots because they did not post anything on the forum. So do i also have to change the login url to avoid this? Thanks

Hi,
bbPress builds on top of WordPress. Any WordPress user that has at least ‘participant’ access can post on your forums.
So you need to make sure your users stay ‘clean’. I use wangguard for that and Theme My Login with a captcha so I’m rather sure that my users are real and they get checked if they would be sploggers or not. So you will need some extra plugins to safeguard, or you make sure that everybody is set ‘for approval’ so you can decide.
But this is a pure WordPress matter, not a bbPress one.
Pascal.
