Re: (yet another) integration bug, no Role set on registration
Ah apparently Detective’s method is for sites running WP at the same time as bbPress (not just integrated, running within each other – which I do not recommend). So this won’t work for most people.
I solved the problem by forcing all registration links to go through WordPress but obviously that’s not a perfect answer (and needs core hacks).
So this problem needs to be revisted again
