bbPress Forum Moderation

When bbPress is active, the plugin extends the same flag workflow to forum topics and replies, so members can report problem posts and moderators review them in the shared Moderation queue.

Forum moderation only appears when bbPress is installed and active. Without bbPress, the topic and reply options are not shown.

  1. On a forum topic or reply, click the flag button.
  2. Choose a reason in the report modal. Topic and reply report reasons are managed under Categorize By Report → Topic report types and Replies report types, and default to the shared reason list.
  3. Submit. The report is sent to admins and moderators and appears in the Moderation queue.

Click the unflag button to retract a report.

Reported topics and replies appear in the Moderation queue with the author, reporter(s), report count, and reason. From a report you can view the post, hide it, clean up the report to restore it, or delete the reported item.
