How to Send bbPress Data to SuiteDash
SuiteDash is a business management platform. bbPress manages a user creates a topic or replies in a forum, but sending that data to external platforms needs an integration. AFI bridges that gap to SuiteDash.
Why connect directly?
Cloud automation tools like Zapier charge per task and route your data through external servers. AFI processes everything on your WordPress site. No per-registration fees, no external dependencies.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with bbPress installed and configured.
- A SuiteDash account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect SuiteDash to AFI
- In SuiteDash, go to Profile → Integrations → SECURE API.
- Copy your Public ID and generate a Secret Key.
- In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → SuiteDash.
- Enter the Public ID and Secret Key, then click Save.
Setting up the integration
1. Create a new integration
Go to AFI → Add New. Name it bbPress to SuiteDash.
2. Pick your trigger
Select bbPress as the form provider. AFI fires when a user creates a topic or replies in a forum, giving you access to member details, profile fields, and activity data.
3. Select SuiteDash as the destination
Choose SuiteDash from the platform dropdown and pick Add Company and Contact. This creates a company and linked contact in SuiteDash.
4. Map fields
Match each SuiteDash field on the left to the corresponding bbPress field on the right. Common mappings include member name, email, profile data, and activity type. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}}.
5. Add conditions if needed
Only want to send certain activities? Set up a conditional rule based on any field value.
6. Save and test
Click Save Integration. Trigger a test a user creates a topic or replies in a forum in bbPress. Check SuiteDash to confirm the data arrived. If anything looks wrong, open AFI → Log to see the exact request and response.
Free vs Pro
The free version maps company name, contact name, and email to SuiteDash with unlimited events. Pro adds full field mapping including address, phone, and role fields. No per-event fees on any plan.
