bbPress – Moderation Tools

Screenshots

Moderation Tools extends bbPress to give you more control over your forums by adding rules that can automatically detect spam from users and bots. Out of the box bbPress has limited moderation tools which means running a forum can be a constant battle to stop spam. This plugin is completely free and we’re always happy to hear from our users via the WordPress support forum if have feedback or feature requests. When you activate the plugin you will find a new set of rules added to the bbPress Forums settings page, found under Settings > Forums. Features Spam Detection Rules Use one or more rules to automatically hold posts for moderation, including: Anonymous/Guest posting Unapproved users posting Unapproved users posting links Unapproved users posting below the English character threshold (this is a percentage that can be tweaked) All posts below the English character threshold All posts (lockdown) Flag individual users for moderation Email notifications When posts are held for moderation When a user reports a post Send email notifications to any combination of the following: Keymasters Moderators Specified emails Front end controls Approval and unapproval of posts and blocking users is handled on the front end by showing pending posts to the post author, moderators and administrators. More Features Redirect blocked users to a custom page instead of the default 404 Adds a Senior Moderator role Support for single forum moderators (bbPress 2.6 feature) ** Developers ** Check out our documentation for actions and filters you can use to extend this plugin: https://sites.google.com/digitalarm.co.uk/bbpress-moderation-tools/ Props to Ian Stanley for the inspiration for this plugin with his work on the plugin bbPress Moderation.
