Hi –

I want any user who I register on my WPMU site to automatically get the cookie-share-log-on-goodness that bbpress provides.

HOWEVER!!!

I do NOT want any user who registers at my bbpress site to get a WPMU account. I don’t even want them to get a “subscriber” account.

Any ideas?

Won’t work. What would end up happening is your user tables would be out of alignment.

What do you do when that user WANTS to register at your WordPress site then? Just curious…

Best thing to do, is create a plugin on the bbPress side of things to add a usermeta value for that user that you can check on the WordPress side of things, and disallow access based on that usermeta value existing.

Interesting idea … I might try to work on that.

I understand the physics behind the why, but the reason I want it that way is the forum is a whole-world feature, the blog(s) is an in-house… and I don’t want the world mucking around in the backend of the blogs. Paranoia?
