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

Groups bbPress integrates Groups and bbPress so that all topics and replies related to protected forums are also protected automatically.

This additional plugin is necessary if you want to run member-only forums with bbPress and Groups. As the topics and replies in bbPress are custom post types, it is not sufficient to protect a forum using Groups.

The topics and replies in a protected forum would still be accessible unless they are also protected.

This plugin extends the access restrictions on a forum to its related topics.

This also applies to replies posted on topics: replies posted on a topic will be accessible to users who can access the topic and the forum only.

If additional access restrictions are set on a topic, its replies are protected by both the forum’s and the topic’s access restrictions.

Groups Forums is an alternative to using bbPress as your forum system with Groups.
