• I haven’t installed this but I am a user of a forum using this plugin and it’s terrible! I don’t know what part are the rules set up by the admin and what are just bugs. I’ve complained to the admins without results so I post my issues here.

    • It does not allow external images, sometimes! Sometimes it does?!
    • The upload function for images is buggy as heck
    • Spend too long composing a message and the post fails
    • Edit a message and while it goes through, it deletes the message!

    The main problems with the above is that every problem, every issue means the message I mean to post gets DELETED and there are no warnings! It is destroyed and never seen again!

    I don’t like not being able to use external image links, but I can live with it. What I can’t live with is the capricious nature of the software and that my messages are so easily deleted. Since this forum has foregone simple forum submits and uses ajax instead, the browser itself can never save the message which on older forums meant you could backspace and save your message. This does not work here. If your post has an error or violation of some kind you are not sent back to the editor, THE POST IS DELETED !

    Same thing if I edit a post, if I accidentially did something the forum software didn’t like it again DELETES THE POST! And you get no warnings, you just press the submit button and everything is gone.

  • I have nothing to do with the BBpress team, I’m just someone whose used it in the past.

    But your review is very unfair, the problem you are having are likely not caused by Bbpress, the forum admin likely has other plugins conflicting with Bbpress.
