Force WP registration

   I would like to force users to register via the WP blog that my bbpress install is integrated with. Is there any fast and easy way to do this?

   I know I could probably crawl through the code and hard code the link so it goes to the WP registration screen instead, but I was hoping someone might have a different suggestion. Also, forcing them to log in through wordpress would be kind of nice as well.

   Call me crazy, but I'm still a little cautious about running registration and login through the BBpress side.

   I force the WP registration on my users since the Role Manager WP plugin we use causes the bbPress registration to mark new members as an Admin. I customized the wp-login.php page and included text stating that registration was for both our site and forums.

   Just add your WP registration link in place of the bbPress one in login-form.php. If you don't use a customized theme, I'd stick it in your my-templates folder so it doesn't get lost when you update.
