Re: How will Buddypress Forums change with 1.3 and the new bbPress?
As much as I am aware, we’ve put in some ground work for the bbPress plugin, but I would not expect to see it supported in BuddyPress until bbPress plugin has had its first release and a bit of time in the wild. I do not think this will happen in time for 1.3.
Extra goodies? None planned. What do you think would apply well to all BuddyPress sites?
I don’t know about a forum/group specific tag cloud, why not leave a suggestion on https://trac.buddypress.org/ ?
Guest/anonymous posting requires support in bbPress. I think it has it in the plugin now, but no plans have been made for how that might fit into BuddyPress.
I am pretty sure John added to BuddyPress 1.3/trunk a view somewhere that shows a user’s forum posts. I can’t remember where it is, and I can’t take a look at the moment.
Forums will be moving away from being group dependant, but I’m not sure if this is happening in 1.3 or 1.4.
