Hello

I’m not sure if anyone can help, but it would be very much appreciated if they can.

I have a registration, login and update personal info system that I use for my site. I am trying to integrate bbpress into my site.

However, I would also like to integrate the registration and login system of bbpress into my site. That is, I would like my members to use the registration and login system of my site, and have that update and use the database of bbpress.

Therefore, all of the members of my site will only use the admin features of my site, not bbpress.

Has anyone done this successfully? Or can anyone help please?

PS: I like bbpress a lot, it’s just that I think it would be easier to manipulate my system rather than bbpress’.

Thanks if you can.

Hi Pedagog,

You’re not wrong. ther are more options for login/registration in WordPress. The simple solution is to physically point the links for login and registration to the WordPress ones.

Anywhere you output a link to bb-login, just change that to wp-login. You will have to edit your theme to make this happen, but its well worth it

Hello Kevin

Thanks for your reply. I’m not using WP, but I think I get your point. At the moment, I can register new members through ‘my’ admin, and it saves the details to my database ‘and’ bbpress.

But as you are more than aware, for various reasons, when a new student logs in to bbpress, they are registered as ‘inactive’.

I’ve not started working on a single login point from ‘my’ site yet.

I will try to tinker with what you have said and get back to you on my success (or failure).

Thanks for your input – I’ll get to work on it.

Hi Kevin,

Are you aware of any plugin for bbPress that forces all registration through a local WordPress install? I can’t seem to find it through google etc.

If not, if I search (through NetBeans / Eclipse + PID) for all strings of bb-login.php or register.php will I find them all?

Or is the easiest way to simply change the header to not show the defualt Login + Register form, and forward people onto the wordpress pages?

Thanks,

Tomek
