<p>Allow your moderators to block spammers from using the forum.</p>
<p>Moderators can mark Topics and Replies as spam, but they cannot change the forum role of a user.  This plugin allows them to block users without giving moderators additional access to wp-admin.</p>
<p>If a user exceeds the spam limit as set by the ‘Spam Limit’ field in bbPress Settings, the forum role for that user will be changed to ‘Blocked’, meaning they can no longer use the forums.  If moderators unspam the posts by a user and the number of spam entries by that user falls below the Spam Limit, then the forum role for that user will be changed to ‘Participant’.</p>
<p>Site admins can review and set the number of spam flags, if any, for each user at the bottom of the Edit User screen in wp-admin.</p>
<p>This plugin is very lightweight. It does not manipulate posts. It only fires when a Topic or Reply is marked as spam or unspam.</p>

<h3>The most popular WordPress plugin for private forums.</h3>
<p>Use bbPress and Paid Memberships Pro to create a private forum in your WordPress site. This plugin enables secure, private discussion boards for members of your free or paid community.</p>
<h4>Private Forums: Restrict Forum Access by Level</h4>
<p>With private forums, all content in the forum is secured from public view. Select the membership levels that are allowed to access the restricted forum. Any member, user, or visitor without access is blocked from viewing forums, topics, and replies.</p>
<ul>
<li>Members get quick access to the private forum on the “Member Links” section of the “Membership Account” page.</li>
<li>Site admins can optionally choose to hide the forum name from the forums list and search results.</li>
<li>To create a better forum experience for your members, choose from the settings to “Hide Forum Roles” and “Show Membership Levels” in replies and on the bbPress profile page. This helps participants see what level of membership access another member has.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Forum Roles: Set Forum Role by Membership Level</h4>
<p>Give certain membership levels a higher tier of access within your forum. Assign the forum role by membership level in your Paid Memberships Pro settings. This forum role is changed or removed from the member when their membership level changes.</p>
<p>For example, allow certain membership levels to be spectators in the forum, while you allow other higher tier members access to moderate forum replies.</p>
