Settings live in two places.

Location What is there
PeepSo > Configuration > wpForo Every setting.
WB Plugins > PeepSo wpForo Overview, a Settings link to the screen above, Support (FAQ) and License.

The per-forum switches and a forum’s group are on wpForo’s forum add and edit screen, in the PeepSo box.

Four groups. Every switch is on by default.

Setting Default What it does
Tab label Forums Name of the profile tab.
Show Posts / Posts label On / Posts Topics and replies the member wrote, with Topics / Replies filters.
Show Favorites / Favorites label On / Favorites Bookmarked, liked and disliked posts, as wpForo shows them.
Show Subscriptions / Subscriptions label On / Subscriptions Forums and topics the member follows. Shown on the member’s own profile only.
Show Forum profile / Forum profile label On / Forum profile Forum stats and the member’s wpForo profile fields.
Link members to their PeepSo profile On Member names and avatars in the forums open the member’s PeepSo profile (their Forums tab when it is on) instead of the wpForo profile page.
Use PeepSo avatars in the forums On Forum pages show the avatar each member has on their PeepSo profile.

An empty label field uses the default label.

Needs PeepSo Groups. Without it, Enable group forums shows “Needs PeepSo Groups. Not active on this site.”

In wp-admin, add or edit a forum in wpForo. The PeepSo box has:

  • Do not post new topics from this forum to the activity stream
  • Do not post replies from this forum to the activity stream
  • PeepSo group slug or ID - link this forum to a group (shown when group forums are on). Leave empty to unlink.

Only site administrators can save this box. The switches are stored per board. See Usage > Group Forums and Usage > Activity and Notifications.

  • Overview - what members get, an Open settings button, and whether wpForo and PeepSo Groups are detected.
  • Settings - opens PeepSo > Configuration > wpForo.
  • Support - FAQ, Documentation and Get Support links.
  • License - see Usage > License Activation.
