Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

Add an advanced search form to bbPress search page with filters and search results ordering controls. On the admin side, you can control which user roles (or visitors) can use filters, and hide the filters you don’t want to use.

The Plugin adds the following filters:

  • Forums, including an option to select forums, and search subforums
  • Users, select a user or type username
  • Content Type (reply, topic)
  • Topic Status
  • Topic Tags
  • Date Period, predefined list of periods
  • Change results sort order

Also, plugin can replace the default search form to include the link to the advanced form. The plugin supports use of the templates’ replacement package plugin GD Quantum Theme Pro for bbPress.

Plugin uses templates with filters and actions, and all templates can be overridden through theme, just like default bbPress templates can.
