Installation

Install and activate both PeepSo and bbPress first. The addon deactivates itself if either is missing.

  1. Upload the plugin files to the /wp-content/plugins/peepso-bbpress directory, or install the zip through Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin.
  2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins screen in WordPress.

On activation the addon:

  • Turns on sensible defaults (forum, topic, and reply activity display; the profile Forums tab; group integration; new topic and new reply notifications).
  • Fills the three activity message templates with default text.
  • Enables per-member forum, topic, and reply activity for existing users.
  • Redirects you to its settings screen.

Because this is a Pro plugin, enter your license key so the site can receive updates. The license field lives on the shared Wbcom license tab in the plugin’s admin area. A failed license server response no longer forces the key inactive (fixed in 2.3.0).

Settings are split across two places:

  • PeepSo > Configuration > PeepSo bbPress Addon holds the working settings (activity, profile tab, group forums). The plugin’s Settings action link on the Plugins screen opens this tab directly.
  • WB Plugins > PeepSo bbPress (top-level admin menu) holds the Welcome and FAQ tabs.

Continue with Configuration.
