So you summon a user who is online, he will recieve a pop-up (or something) . When he presses the link or button in the pop-up, he will go directly to the topic. Ofcourse the pop-up should heave 2 buttons. 1 to accept the summon and 1 to decline it. The summoner will recieve a pop-up when the summon is declined.</p> <p>That would be so cool :) </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/login-status-not-translating-to-bbpress-from-wp#post-16078 Fri, 09 May 2008 02:01:51 +0000 chilledfresh 16078@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I was having the exact same problem.

I have tested your second example (pluggable.php, row 361 etc.) was exactly what I needed! </p> <p>I agree with you that a plugin would be nice, and also it would be even nicer to be able to set new users default role somewhere in the admin interface, but for the moment your suggestion just work.</p> <p>thanks again! </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/setting-default-role-to-inactive-for-new-registered-users#post-13779 Wed, 13 Feb 2008 16:49:17 +0000 chrishajer 13779@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>The default role is set in bb-includes/capabilities.php around line 485 </p> <p><code>$user-&gt;set_role(&#39;member&#39;);</code></p> <p>This is a job for a plugin, but I haven't tried to write one yet, so if you were to change that word <code>member</code> to <code>inactive</code>, my guess would be that that would make any new member inactive and then the keymaster would need to edit their role to make them members.</p> <p>ACTUALLY - that didn't work :D</p> <p>In bb-includes/pluggable.php, line 361 says this:<br /> <code>bb_update_usermeta( $user_id, $bb_table_prefix . &#39;capabilities&#39;, array(&#39;member&#39; =&gt; true) );</code></p> <p>I changed <strong>member</strong> to <strong>inactive</strong> there, and now new users are inactive when they first register.</p> <p>Like I said, this is really a job for a plugin, but you could probably use this last change temporarily until a proper plugin is written.</p> <p>HTH, and be warned this is not a good way of doing it.

I've tried to look into the code, but was not able to figure it out how to do it. hints would be welcomed.</p> <p>another option (the one I'm currently adopting) is removing the register function and putting something like "write to this email address if you want to be registered", then using this plugin to allow administrator to add users:</p> <p><a href="http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/admin-add-user/" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/admin-add-user/</a></p> <p>but this is not how really we want it to be. an example of it is the "candidate" system used in vanilla forum: you candidate yourself to be a member of the forum, and if admin agree then you're in. (why then not using vanilla? because there's a graphic customization people have worked into, and we are running very short on deadline, say the url is in this morning newspaper... :-) ).</p> <p>I'd also be grateful for any other suggestions. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wordpressbbpress-users-are-known-but-not-loggd-in#post-12314 Tue, 27 Nov 2007 22:44:24 +0000 electroniques 12314@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Hey.</p> <p>I solved it myself.<br /> As a matter of fact it was a <a href="http://www./no-www" rel="nofollow">www./no-www</a> issue.<br /> In Wordpress my Blog-URL was <a href="http://cmscentral.de" rel="nofollow">http://cmscentral.de</a> and after I changed it to <a href="http://www.cmscentral.de" rel="nofollow">http://www.cmscentral.de</a> everything worked just fine. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wordpressbbpress-users-are-known-but-not-loggd-in#post-12204 Sun, 25 Nov 2007 23:53:59 +0000 electroniques 12204@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>@fel64:</p> <p>My Blog's address is: <a href="http://www.cmscentral.de/index.php" rel="nofollow">http://www.cmscentral.de/index.php</a><br /> Installed in subfolder /content/<br /> My forum's address is: <a href="http://www.cmscentral.de/content/forum" rel="nofollow">http://www.cmscentral.de/content/forum</a></p> <p>I installed bbpress in my Blog's/WP's subfolder, because that supposedly should automatically have the right cookie settings.</p> <p>Could this be a www/no-www issue? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wordpressbbpress-users-are-known-but-not-loggd-in#post-12186 Sat, 24 Nov 2007 22:25:54 +0000 fel64 12186@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>electroniques: what are the urls of your installs?

I use bbpulp a lot to find the needed code, but that isn't always enough.</p> <p>I'm glad Chris found an answer, but then I ask: how did you do it?
