Backend Topic Creation Not Working

[durin]

svn v2928

Trying to create a topic on the frontend is successful. However creating a topic on the backend does not show on the frontend. It seems like the backend side is not creating the correct meta keys for the topics:

backend

---

meta_id post_id meta_key meta_value
3808 2999 _edit_last 1
3809 2999 _edit_lock 1298466142
3810 2999 _bbp_forum_id 2730

---

frontend

---

meta_id post_id meta_key meta_value
3811 3003 _bbp_forum_id 2730
3812 3003 _bbp_last_reply_id 0
3813 3003 _bbp_last_active_id 3003
3814 3003 _bbp_last_active_time 2011-02-23 08:06:34
3815 3003 _bbp_reply_count 0
3816 3003 _bbp_hidden_reply_count 0
3817 3003 _bbp_voice_count 1
3825 3003 _edit_lock 1298466636

May I ask why you're creating topics in the backend? In my opinion, the "Add New" options for topics and replies should be hidden in the admin panel.

Was kind of thinking the same thing. It sucks to lose this functionality since it's nice to have, but I've mostly ignored that ability the entire time.

Because in the backend there is a nice interface with the familiar tinyMCE for WordPress, so you can add attachments, images, formatting, etc - its nice for administrators / people who are going to be making details topics to have that ability IMO.

Would rather we bring these interfaces into the front end, so that users are not automatically drawn into wp-admin to make elaborate posts. There will be an option to bring TinyMCE into the post form in bbPress core, as it's one of the most requested features.

The topic backend posting system works for me. However, I don't think anyone will be creating topics from the backend, so if it didn't work it wouldn't be a problem.
