WordPress-BBPress intergration - user registered on BBPress has no role on WordPress

    • Posted 2 years ago #

    Hi,

    I have installed WP 2.8.4 and the most recent version of BBPress. Via the user role mapping, I managed to get a user who is registered through WordPress to have a default role in BBPress. However, I cannot find any plugins that allow anyone who is registered through BBPress to have a default role (it's currently set to None) in WP. Any idea how may I achieve that?

    Seeing the same here.

    Using WP 2.8.6 and BBP 1.0!

    User with role in bbPress and without role in WordPress log in to WordPress and WordPress change role none to your WordPress default role.

    Try installing this: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/add-bbpress-default-role/

    for wordpress -> bbpress

    and

    the wordpress integration option in BBpress should take care of the other.

    Thanks for this.

    I wonder, is there a non-plugin solution? Hate to load up plugins for something that should be automagic.

    Ironically, the plugin did not work for me.

    Not sure why... hmmm.

    casemon, I also installed this http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/user-roles-table-for-bbpress/ maybe they work together??

    Update: I no longer have this issue, since rebuilding the bbpress installation. Before, something was screwy, between outdated documentation, and just learning bbp.

    Hurrah!
