WP Integration: suggested user role mappings

   Hi, I've just installed a fresh install of WP and bbP and I've got to the point where I need to choose the user role mappings.

   However, although I've used WP extensively I've never used bbP before so I'm not sure what mappings I should use. I was thinking maybe something like the following:

   Administrator - Key Master
   Editor - Administrator
   Author - Moderator
   Contributor - Member
   Subscriber - Inactive

   Can anyone with experience give me any better suggestions? Also, can I easily change these roles later?

   It depends how much you trust editors with user records. I would tend to go with this.

   Administrator - Key Master
   Editor - Moderator
   Author - Member
   Contributor - Member
   Subscriber - Member

   As you can see, you don't need to have one-to-one relationships.
