PeepSo + bbPress

Your bbPress forum never shows up in the PeepSo activity feed.

Members post in bbPress and the conversation stays there. PeepSo bbPress Addon posts every topic and reply into PeepSo activities and groups, so forum talk appears where your community already looks. No code, and each member keeps their own switches for the forums, topics, and replies they write.

The sync path

Forum post in. PeepSo activity out. Nothing typed twice.

Cross-posting by hand is what dies first when a community gets busy. This runs on every topic and every reply, in the background, with the rules you set once.

  1. 01

    Someone posts in bbPress

    A member starts a topic or leaves a reply in any forum on your site. Nothing about their bbPress habit changes.

    Existing topics and replies stay where they are.

  2. 02

    The addon writes a PeepSo activity

    Admins choose which forum actions generate activity and which attributes carry across, from the plugin settings screen. No code and no template edits.

    Set once, applies to every forum.

  3. 03

    It lands where members already look

    The activity appears in the PeepSo stream, in the group linked to that forum, and under the member profile tabs for topics and replies.

    Members can switch their own sync off.

Four placements

One forum post, four places your members already read.

The addon does not move bbPress into PeepSo. It publishes what happens in the forum to the PeepSo surfaces around it, and adds the forum tabs PeepSo profiles and groups are missing.

  • The activity stream

    Every new topic and reply posts into PeepSo activities, so members who never open the forum still see it happening.

  • The group that owns the forum

    Link a bbPress forum to a PeepSo group from the forum's own edit screen, one forum to one group. The group gets a forum tab and new topics post straight into the group activity.

  • The member profile

    A Forums tab on the profile carrying bbPress's own panes: topics started, replies written, favorites, and subscriptions to both forums and topics.

  • Notifications

    Members subscribe to a forum and hear about new topics and replies. Admins can tell the whole site when a new forum goes live.

Who decides

Admins set the rules. Members keep a switch.

Nothing here needs a developer. The admin screen decides which forum actions become activity and how much of the post carries across. The member decides whether any of theirs does.

Backend settings

The admin screen, no code

Choose which forum actions generate a PeepSo activity and which attributes come with them. Set it once and it applies across every forum on the site.

  • New topic posts an activity On
  • New reply posts an activity On
  • Forum tabs on member profiles On
  • Announce a new forum to the whole site Off

Member profile

Their feed, their call

A member who posts in a support forum all day may not want every reply in the stream. Their profile settings carry a separate switch for each action, so replies can stay quiet while new topics still land. A member whose forum role cannot start topics simply never sees that row.

Members can also subscribe to a forum and get notified about new topics and replies there.

Pricing

Two licence tiers. Same feature set either way.

Personal and Agency ship the identical addon: forum activities in the stream, group-linked forums, profile forum tabs, subscriptions, and the per-member switch. The tier only decides how many PeepSo sites you run it on. Pay yearly, or once for a lifetime licence. Read the refund policy.

Before you buy

Questions PeepSo admins ask before they connect bbPress.

Answered by the team that builds and supports the addon. Anything else, use the contact page.

Does this need both bbPress and PeepSo?

Yes. PeepSo bbPress Addon requires bbPress and PeepSo installed and active on the same site.

What is the difference between Personal and Agency?

Personal covers one PeepSo site. Agency covers more than one, for teams and agencies managing several communities. Both include the same features.

Can members opt out of forum sync?

Yes. Profile settings carry a separate switch for new forums, new topics, and new replies, so a member can keep replies out of the stream and let topics through. Each switch appears only when the admin has enabled that action and the forum role of that member can perform it.

Does it work with PeepSo Groups?

Yes. A bbPress forum is linked to a PeepSo group from its own edit screen in wp-admin, one forum to one group. The group then gets a Forum tab with Topics and Add New, and new topics in that forum post into the group activity. The tab appears once the forum has its first topic.

Which forum panes does the profile tab carry?

One Forums tab holds bbPress's own profile panes: topics started, replies created, favorites, and subscriptions to both forums and topics. The tab can be switched off and relabelled from the plugin backend.

Can bbPress links point at PeepSo profiles?

Yes. One option rewrites bbPress user links to the matching PeepSo profile, so clicking an author in the forum lands on their community profile instead of a bbPress page.

Do I need to write any code to set this up?

No. Which activities sync and how the forum tabs are labelled are both set from the plugin backend screen.

What happens to my existing topics and replies?

They stay in bbPress exactly where they are. The sync starts working on new forum posts as soon as you activate the addon.

What happens if my licence expires?

You keep using the plugin. You stop receiving updates and support until you renew.

Can I pay once instead of renewing every year?

Yes. Personal and Agency both have a lifetime option that never needs renewing.

Connect your bbPress forum to PeepSo this week.

Install it on staging first. Existing topics and replies stay exactly where they are, and the sync starts on the next forum post after you activate.
