I want to have a global forum where members can post without joining any group. I searched out this:

`Change the parent forum to use for all BuddyPress group forums:
define ( ‘BP_FORUMS_PARENT_FORUM_ID’, $forum_id );`

Deos this mean to create such a global forum?

This is your solution:

Global Forums – Discontinued

Side Note: That plugin will remove the Forums Being Part of a group, All your groups will no longer have a forum.

I prefer keep local forums with the global fourm running along. Seems not an easy task.

Than add another forum via plugin such as: http://simple-press.com/

Actually, @sbrajesh‘s Global Forums plugin can either integrate the groups forums or run separate from the group forums.

That’s great, I will check it out. What I need is one global forum to act as “Questions and Answers” page for all members.
