Glad to hear it ??

Ok the issue was that the filter doesn’t actually have the post ID available, as it’s triggered on pre insert. This is something we’ll have a look at improving in future.

I’ve adjusted the code so it now works, new snippet below:

function my_lockdown_forum( $pending, $post ) {
	$lockdown_forum_id = 5;
	$forum_id = $post['post_parent'];

	// Delete this if statement if you don't want to lock down replies
	if ( 'reply' === $post['post_type'] ) {
		$topic = get_post( $post['post_parent'] );
		$forum_id = (int) get_post_meta( $topic->ID, '_bbp_forum_id', true );
	}

	if ( $forum_id === $lockdown_forum_id  ) {
		$pending = true;
	}

	return $pending;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_modtools_moderate_post', 'my_lockdown_forum', 10, 2 );

I’ve applied this to your staging site so you can test there. Note the comment above the if statement which you can delete if you don’t want to lockdown replies.

Let me know how you get on!

Sure. Please email details to [email protected]

Ok so a couple of things:

1. Make sure you aren’t testing this with a user who has moderation permissions, as moderation is skipped for these users.

2. You will need to have some level of moderation switched on for all forums, as otherwise the filter won’t be reached. So for example you could just have the “Unapproved users posting below the English character threshold” setting turned on.

This might be an easier way to do it. If it doesn’t work, I’ll do a test tomorrow and get you some working code!

<?php
function my_lockdown_forum( $pending, $post ) {
        $forum_id = get_post_meta( $post->ID, '_bbp_forum_id', true );
	$lockdown_forum_id = 99;

	if ( $forum_id === $lockdown_forum_id  ) {
		$pending = true;
	}

	return $pending;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_modtools_moderate_post', 'my_lockdown_forum', 10, 2 );

There was a comma missing, my mistake! Revised code:

<?php
add_filter( 'bbp_modtools_moderate_post', function( $pending, $post ) ) {
	$forum_id = get_post_meta( $post->ID, '_bbp_forum_id', true );
	$lockdown_forum_id = 99;

	if ( $forum_id === $lockdown_forum_id  ) {
		$pending = true;
	}

	return $pending;
}

Make sure to change the $lockdown_forum_id to be the ID of the forum you want to lockdown.

Hi,

Currently the plugin doesn’t support different moderation rules for different forums.

Your suggestion to have moderation settings on the edit forum page is interesting and something we’ll look at ??

For now, there is a filter you could use to always mark posts as pending if the topic/reply belongs to a particular forum.

Here’s a quick (untested) snippet:

<?php
add_filter( 'bbp_modtools_moderate_post' function( $pending, $post ) ) {
	$forum_id = get_post_meta( $post->ID, '_bbp_forum_id', true );
	$lockdown_forum_id = 99;

	if ( $forum_id === $lockdown_forum_id  ) {
		$pending = true;
	}

	return $pending;
}

Hi,

Currently the plugin doesn’t support different moderation rules for different Forums. It’s something we’re looking at though.

Thanks.

Hi,

Yes you could use “Lockdown” mode to achieve this.

I’ll mark as resolved but let me know if you have any follow up questions.

Thanks.

Thanks for your feedback.

Topics held for moderation are only visible to users with moderation capabilities. So your guests/subscribers won’t be able to these posts.

Are you saying you would like an additional option to hide pending posts for moderators or does the above clear things up?

Are you running the latest version of the plugin?

If you would like to create an Admin account and send details to team[at]digitalarm.co.uk I would be happy to have a look to help troubleshoot the issue.

Glad to hear that’s working and the plugin is working well for you!

Thanks for flagging this. This has been fixed in the latest 1.2 release.
