The two are integrated with each other. I had a look at the users and roles in WP and noted that bbPress had changed all the roles to the bbPress role types. The WP roles are now all gone. The problem is that no one of my users can login, only the first admin user which I created when installed WP and bbPress. If I change another user from member to admin he cannot login. </p> <p>Can I change back the roles to the default WP roles or do you have any clue what have happened? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/yet-another-integration-bug-no-role-set-on-registration#post-18914 Thu, 04 Sep 2008 10:51:40 +0000 Sonika 18914@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Detective, thanks a lot!!!<br /> It solved my problem ( wp 2.5.1, bbpress 0.9.0.2)</p> <p>Bo Fiddlesticks, you should save code in <code>set-default-role.php</code> file, put it in bb-plugins and activate<br /> <pre><code>&lt;?php /* Plugin Name: bbpress wpmu default role Plugin URI: <a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/yet-another-integration-bug-no-role-set-on-registration?replies=5" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/yet-another-integration-bug-no-role-set-on-registration?replies=5</a> Description: Sets a default WPMU role for all new bbpress users.

I have a forums where I need to have a set of moderators have access to only moderate a few forums and not every forum on the site. I did some searching and couldn't find anything in the forums or plug ins that did this task. Is this something that could be handled by being able to add more roles, and then custom define the abilities of those roles? Thanks for your time, I look forward to hearing back from the community on this. :) </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/yet-another-integration-bug-no-role-set-on-registration#post-16718 Thu, 12 Jun 2008 10:17:49 +0000 Bo Fiddlesticks 16718@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Unfortunately, Detective's solution doesn't work with the latest versions.

Actually I didn't upgrade to 0.8.3 because of Forum Restriction breaking. I already have some sections of the forum pupulated, which need to be hidden from the general user, so upgrading is just not plausible for me right now. I am using it in conjunction with Private Forums plugin (which feels much better to me). If that plugin could be integrated with Roles it would be the best solution by far.</p> <p>I am at a dead end for now. I can't upgrade Wordpress to 2.3 because bbPress breaks, and I can't upgrade bbPress because I would be opening some important forums to everyone. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/shares-roles-with-wordpress-role-manager#post-11547 Fri, 19 Oct 2007 01:30:25 +0000 larscsim 11547@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I've looked through the (two) plugins that allows us to restrict forums, and sadly, it seems your guesses are correct. The first one which allows you to allow users in to a forum based on member names is hardly compatible with the latest version of bbPress (and seems dead). I almost got it working right, except for the fact that it messed up my forum hierarchy, and some other bugs, which meant that threads couldn't be posted to a certain forum without being in that forum, which was enough for me to rule it out.</p> <p>The other option, private forum as you tried out yourself, doesn't allow us to do anything but restrict it to either members, mods or admins, which is the most viable solution to me at this point. It does mean however that I will need to give all my members who need access to the restricted forum moderator capabilities. Hardly ideal, but I'll have to go with it for now.</p> <p>I'll be looking at it this weekend though, and hopefully I can find a sort of solution to it. Right now I'm thinking of finding a way to strip moderators of actual moderating powers, but I really don't know. Adding another usergroup (pretty simple) should work too, but it has to be reflected in the plugin as well, but I don't have the coding skills (I don't have any coding skills) to do that.</p> <p>Hopefully a gifted plugin developer will step in and solve this for us :) </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/shares-roles-with-wordpress-role-manager#post-11529 Thu, 18 Oct 2007 19:28:00 +0000 grosbouff 11529@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Hello, I use "Role Manager" plugin with worpress, which is very useful.<br /> I thought that bbpress will work with it, but instead it's using his own roles.<br /> The problem is that I would like to use my custom-role in wordpress in bbpress too.<br /> I installed the plugin "private forums" for bbpress, and it's a shame I can't use my wordpress roles to make forums privates... ?<br /> Any idea ? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/add-roles#post-10967 Sun, 16 Sep 2007 22:48:07 +0000 fel64 10967@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Coolio.
