Different questions

    Hi,
    I am making a review site and I have BuddyPress and BBpress installed. I have a few questions about using BuddyPress for a review site:

    1) Is it possible to make a blog with different articles where some of the best articles, like “plus” or “gold” articles, only members of the site can read? (A way for me to give people something in return for registering as members)

    2) How can I make members make reviews without getting access to the admin panel of my WordPress site? It wouldn’t be much fun for me if members can edit or see others posts. I want members to get a very narrow access to only “make a new review” and then they can not edit the review afterwards, as the admin (me) has to approve.

    3) Where do I upload language files (I have Danish .mo and .po files)?

    4) How do I change the text in the automatic emails send to the members? (is it in the language files as well?)

    5) Is it possible to upgrade members, let’s say those who have been making the most reviews, so they achieve either points or a higher level?

    Thanks in advance!!

    1) & 2) some plugins you could use: Mycred, Megathread (for comments only), Buddypress Profile Rating, BP Group Review

    3) wp-content/languages/plugins/buddypress.mo/po

    4) yes and also in wp settings.

    5) see Mycred plugin

    Keep in mind that BuddyPress is members oriented. Classic content like blog posts and forum topics are managed as content first than binded to a member’s activity.

    Thanks for the reply!

    If I go to wp-content/languages/plugins/ I can only find Akismet and not BuddyPress. All other folders mentioning BuddyPress do not include a language folder, so I’m confused?

    I have bought a WordPress theme called Implicit by IndustrialThemes, and making a product review is a part of the theme that’s linked up to posts. So if you make a new post you can make it a review filling out different fields such as ratings and criteria. So if a member wants to make their own review they would have to gain access to the admin panel in order to write a post/review. But if I open up this feature then the members would be able to see other posts as well and they can edit etc. As I understand, the plugins you mention will not get the member inside the admin panel with limited access. Am I right?

    Which of the plugins can be used in order to block different blog posts from not-registered users?
