Hello
I've currently set up wordpress mu and bbpress on the same domain. Everything seems to be working well, i used the built in integration and the cookies work fine. When the user logs into wordpress it also logs them into bbpress and vice versa. However when a new user signs up for wordpress they are marked as inactive/no role on bbpress.
However despite the fact that they are being added to the main blog as subscribers, they aren't being given the role of member to the forum even though the role mapping is set as such (see image attached labeled correct roles).
I can manually change the users role in BBpress correctly, it seems the role mapping is the only thing not working.
Is it possibly a permissions issue or did i miss something else?
(ignore the first image attached that was me testing other roles to see if they would work, they didn't either)

Hiya sjrenn,
That's no fun. The roles should be fully integrated. What versions of WordPress and bbPress are you using?
You should be able to check for the role mapping at sitepath/forumpath/bb-admin/options-wordpress.php
If that doesn't work try this plugin: http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/user-roles-table-for-bbpress/
Let us know how it goes!
Thanks!
