Reply To: 2.6 doesn’t recognise existing WP forum roles

Hi there and thanks for the reply.

The trouble is I’m not entirely sure how we did it as it was a while ago and the person that did it is no longer with us.

I’m not seeing anything in functions.php which is where I understand that code is normally put for this so I’m assuming it’s in the capabilities.php file that the update is overriding as this does refer to treating wp_roles as bbpress roles.

I can send a copy of the capabilities file (not seeing an upload button) or perhaps you can give me an idea where else to look?

Sorry to be so vague, but it works fine with the previous version of bbpress so I’m guessing it’s something that gets overwritten when I update.

The roles were created by clicking duplicate on a bbpress role and then changing the name, but if I try that now it just created a wp-role and not a forum role.
