Link WordPress user role with bbpress user role

Hello!
Is it possible to link WordPress user role with bbpress user role?
For example, I have users on WordPress who are “subscribers”, but if they stop paying they automatically go to “customers”.
I would like to automatically convert a “customer” in WordPress to “locked” in bbpress.
This is possible? how?
Thanks!!!

You’ll have to write a custom plugin that filters bbp_get_user_role_map and adds a key for the customers role.

Something like:
```
add_filter( 'bbp_get_user_role_map', function( $roles = array() ) {
    $roles['customer'] = 'blocked';
    return $roles;
} );
```

Hi John!
Thanks for the quick response!
I modified your code to:
```
/* wp customer -> bbp block */
add_filter( 'bbp_get_user_role_map', function( $roles = array() ) {
    $roles['customer'] = 'bbp_blocked';
    return $roles;
} );

/* wp suscriber -> bbp participant */
add_filter( 'bbp_get_user_role_map', function( $roles = array() ) {
    $roles['subscriber'] = 'bbp_participant';
    return $roles;
} );
```
But doesn’t works fine… when I change a Wp user role they lost any user role at bbpress.. (I put the code in functions in my child theme, is correct?)

Thanks again!
