I was working on my site and saw some new text (a link for an online [url=https://pesaland.com]casino[/url]) added to a block on my homepage. I deleted the block of text, then checked my “users” list. That’s where I saw a new user (Ann Smith) with a spammy e-mail address (I think it was 11@11.com or something), this user had Administrator and Keymaster status. I deleted the user. I then tried to give myself keymaster status again, and cannot. I currently have Administrator and Participant Roles. There is one other user (a developer I work with sometimes) who has Administrator and Keymaster status.

I thought if I deactivated and deleted the bbpress plugin, cleared the cache and reinstalled it that would let me start over, but that did nothing. (note I have not started using this for a forum on my site yet so doing this was no big deal). Since that did not work I deleted the plug in again, but I am submitting this question because I would like to use it. Also, even after the plug in is deleted the roles (Keymaster and Participant) still appear in the user list under the “Role” column, but I thought they were only associated with bbpress. Is that correct? (I am not using buddypress)

So basically I need to know how I can install bbpress and be given the keymaster role again. Please help, thank you!!

yes u are right
