Hi guys,

Have a question. Im a NOOB so please dont shoot me.

Ive set up a forum and its working so far. But when a new user registers it also gives the access to the wordpress front-end (dashboard) Even so when I set it up that new users have the role of “forum participant” the still can get to the wordpress dashboard. Not having al the functions ofcourse but still.

Is there a way to NOT show them the wordpress front-end?

Thank you so much

Hello, I would like to know the same thing. Anyone have an answer? My forum is at http://salt-care.com/dev/forums/.

It’s a shame that users have to see the WordPress news and such on the generic WordPress dashboard once they create a forum participant account. There must be a plugin for this.

May be you can use this plugin (have not tested it myself):

Thanks. I just found this link and it seems to have excellent instructions including a login redirect plugin like you have suggested. http://wphow.org/how-to-install-bbpress-with-any-theme/

Tested on WP lastest + bbPress 2.1

I can verify that the plugin mentioned above works.
