Well, it turns out I shouldn’t play with bbpress/wpmu when I’m tired at 2am. I never ended up activating the plugin . Anyways, I got the code that Detective wrote to work once I pulled my head outta my butt!

Here’s for anyone else that has this problem…

toss this into a file called default-role.php and put it in your my-plugins directory within your bbpress install folder.

<?php

/*

Plugin Name: bbpress wpmu default role

Plugin URI: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/yet-another-integration-bug-no-role-set-on-registration?replies=5

Description: Sets a default WPMU role for all new bbpress users.

Author: Detective

*/

function wpbb_add_user_role_rk($user_id) {

$user = new WP_User($user_id);

$user->set_role(get_option(‘default_role’));

}

add_action( ‘bb_new_user’, ‘wpbb_add_user_role_rk’);

?>
