Where do I set the user login functions?

In the instructions it says:

..In the “WordPress Integration” section of the “Settings” area in your bbPress admin you will find a “User Role Map” where you can set which roles will be applied to users who register on your forums. Users who register on your WordPress blog will have the appropriate role applied to their account when they first login to bbPress.<<

where is the bbpress admin area? I can;t find it or any ““User Role Map.” Is it sin the same area as my blog’s dashboard? I see “forum” under settings but nothing b=about users. And up in the Forum area of sdashboard, just setting to create forums, topics, replies, ect.

I’m missing something really basic here, I’m sure.

I want to help you , but it seems I am lack of ability .

The bbP admin area is combined with the WordPress admin area, so you access it the same way.

Once you are on the Dashboard you will see specific menu items that have been added for bbP.

I see those on the side but when I open them up, I see nowhere to set user login info

[@jaredatch Member 13 years ago]

What are you trying to do exactly?

[@superhealthyme Member 13 years ago]

To set up a forum on my blog…

That seems to have worked…

Then to have people be able to login, get an account and post.

When someone other than me goes on they get a

“You must be logged in to create new topics.”

There is no place for them to set up an account or login.

Forum is at http://superhealthyme.com/forums

Thanks for helping

You need to create pages and use shortcodes.

See https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-20-shortcodes

For example have a login page that contains [bbp-login] and a registration page that has [bbp-register] – this will allow you users to register for an account (which they need to post) and and area to login at.

Also there are plenty of plugins available on WordPress.org that let you put a login for into widget areas etc.

Do you have any developers you could recommend who could install/configure this for me for a fee?

[@jaredatch Member 13 years ago]

Sorry, I can’t help you there.

It should be pretty simple however. Just create those 2 pages, paste those shortcodes, and you’re done.
