bbPress Messages

Giving myself a review..
Works perfect, simple code, clean design, you can use this plugin with or without BuddyPress with no issues or conflicts.



simple and working

Works Fine but the text is written in hard. No translation possible. Not usable in my lang ! Too bad.

Front-end-pm is a very good alternative.

Translation impossible

I could customize the plugin via filters etc. Works good, so go ahead and install it. 
We translated the plugin ourself via PoEdit and we want to give that back.

Does what it says and very happy with it as a developer
