Hi, for my business website I’m trying to get a working forum together, I’m using WordPress.com, and I’ve got bbpress and bbpstyle pack active right now.

The issues I keep getting prevent users who do not have WordPress accounts from registering, it redirects the users to the WordPress login page and doesn’t send an e-mail.

In my Settings, if I remove the ability to login with WordPress accounts, it functions perfectly, but I lose access to editing and updating the site, I’m lost on how to get this functional.

hmmm…

bbpress just uses wordpress registration, so users should be able to just register and get participant access.

what have you got set in

dashboard>settings>forums>Roles?

[mballa3rdo]

I have it checked to automatically grant the Participant Role, yes.

so if you are allowing registration, how are users registering – what widget or shortcode or method are you using ?

[mballa3rdo]

[bbp-register]
[bbp-login]
[bbp-lost-pass]

[Robin W]

ok, so when someone tries to register, what happens?

[mballa3rdo]

It redirects to the WP login page and no registration email is ssent.

strongly suspect the issue is that you are running on a staging site, so conflict between the actual url and the one in the wordpress database
