    Not sure if that belongs to here

    I´m new to bbPress and I was running an SMF forum for quite a while. I like to use bbPress because it integrates seamlessly into my WP site. That said I´d like to do the following:

    I need 10 different user groups. Each user group should have access to specific forums. Forums that they don´t have access to should be hidden from them.

    Example:

    User John is member of the group X. Group X can see and write into forum X but not into forum Y and Z.
    User Jane is member of the group Y. Group Y can see and write into forum Y but not into forum X and Z.
    User Jim is member of the group A. Group A can see and write into any forum

    So some users can see only specific forums and some users can see all forums.

    That is a simple task with SMF but how can I achieve that with bbPress?

    Thanks in advance
    Michael

    Hey Michael Oeser!

    I don’t really know actually. The best place to look for an answer would be the bbPress codex/docs here: http://codex.bbpress.org/

    I’ve done something like that with BuddyPress and bbPress but it wasn’t as specific with varied access like that. BuddyPress is also somewhat heavy for basic user restrictions.

    Regards,

    Thanks Devin. Unfortunately the bbPress forum is very slow :-(

    Most other forums are unfortunately. If it was something we could help with we would but bbPress is an ecosystem of itself.
