Hi, I added a new wordpress role and would like it to map new users not to the participant role but rather to spectator.

So I added this filter in my functions.php.

add_filter('bbp_get_user_role_map', 'assign_spectator_role');
  function assign_spectator_role($roles) {
    $roles['mynewrole'] = bbp_get_spectator_role(); 
  return (array) $roles;
}

Problem is that this filter does not get executed.
If I add my role directly in the bbp_get_user_role_map function it works but not with the filter.
The tools function ‘remap_roles’ also works fine.

Any ideas how I can get it to work?

Cheers.

[Solved]

If anybody hasthe same problem, I solved it by creating a small plugin out of the code so it’ll load on time.

<?php
/*
Plugin Name: FilterBbRoleMap
*/

if(!class_exists('FilterBbRoleMap')) {
	class FilterBbRoleMap
	{
		public function __construct()
		{
			add_filter('bbp_get_user_role_map', 'add_spectator_role');
			function add_spectator_role($role_map) {
				$role_map['prefix_spectator'] = bbp_get_spectator_role();
				return $role_map;
			}
		}
	}

	$FilterBbRoleMap = new FilterBbRoleMap();
}
