maanna-stephenson“Want to integrate a forum with your membership site? Now you can do it easily with WishList Member, thanks to the super devs over at Happy Plugins. I’ve worked with Bob Tolbert and his team there for a few years and I’m very excited about the new plugin they’ve created. I’ll likely be adding this bbPress integration plugin to the Webmaster Training site in the near future. I think it will be super for all of us webmasters to help one another.”

Description

Wishlist Member bbPress Protection is a unique plugin that protects both new and existing forums, topics and replies so only members in the levels you specify can access.

Without Wishlist Member bbPress Protection plugin there is no option to automatically protect topics and replies within each forum.

Without this plugin you will need to enter each topic and reply that is created by your forum members and define their protection settings manually, which is impossible to do.

Exclusive Features:

  • Protects all new forums, topics and replies created inside the bbPress forum
  • Every new topic and reply that is added to a specific forum will automatically inherit their parent forum’s protection settings
  • Protects all existing topics and replies inside the bbPress forum in just 1-click
  • Protects the main forum index page (E.g. http://yourdomain.com/members-forum)
  • Allows you to grant access to the main index page only to specific membership levels you define
  • Allows you to define an error page non-members will be redirected to when they try to access the main index page
  • Displays a summary table with all the forums, theirs status (protected: Yes/ No), membership levels and actions you can perform (edit forum’s protection settings / fix protection for existing topics and replies)
  • Displays an error message if you have protected the forum, but haven’t defined the membership levels
