Hey. I was having the problem where new registrations to BB was giving the users administrator privileges (bu the default was set to subscriber) — and In the WP userlist, the new bb users were sort of ominously listed below the users who registered through WP.

I saw this mentioned a few times here (sorry for not just adding this in reply to one of those posts, I couldn’t find them)…

Anyways – I realized I have the Role Manager plugin installed in WP.. I de-activated it, and now new users get assigned the proper default WP role.

Cheers.

Wow, so glad someone finally figured that out! We need our Role Manager plugin, unfortunately. What I ended up doing was removing the forum registration; it works out well for our purposes, fortunately.

“What I ended up doing was removing the forum registration”

That’s exactly what I did for mine. Instead, I just pointed to the WP register link and that works out beautifully for me.
