Register/Log-In Tied to WP?

Hi, I’m setting up a discussion forum and user accounts on my website. One thing that bothers me is that when creating an account you are taken to the WP-login page. What’s more is that the user has access to a WP dashboard, whereas I’d rather they were only able to edit their profile on my actual website. I really don’t like this as I don’t want the user to be aware that WordPress was used to create this site. Is there a way to have accounts using BBpress without WP popping up? In other words, the user’s account is handled on the website with no mention of WP?

the following will disable the toolbar for all but admins
```
//disable toolbar for non-admins
if (!current_user_can('manage_options')) {
show_admin_bar(false);
}
```
put this in your function file

see

The you can add a widget login to the sidebar

Dashboard>appearance>widgets and look for (bbpress) login widget

You can also add logins to the menu see

Thank you, I’ll give it a shot and let you know. Will this also stop the wp-login screen from appearing? For example, if a user tries to register an account but the email has already been registered, it takes the user to the wp-login screen and returns an error (I would rather the error be returned on my website).
