RE: Adding certain wpForo fields onto BuddyPress

@chris, thanks but
Stricly speaking, this is incorrect. wpForo handles nicename/nickname and display names differently than how WordPress does:
if you change nicename/nickname with WordPress' native Edit Profile option (not wpForo's), this change is not synchronized to wpForo, but if you change it in wpForo, it is synchronized back to WordPress. I tested this with wpForo v. 2.1.6 and there's a screenshot of what I mean attached.
wpForo treats nickname as unique. I cannot have two users in wpForo whose nickname is '@frank' ('This nickname is already in use'). But if I use WordPress native Edit Profile option, I can have multiple users with the same nickname (again, tested in WordPress)
About Display Name, WordPress uses First and Last name and then combines them to give you a few options as a dropdown on how you want your name shown. wpForo uses a simple (and better in my opinion) approach of a simple box. You just decide how your name should be shown.
So, I would understand using directly those WordPress fields if they behaved exactly like they do in wpForo but, as things stand today, they don't.
I also understand that there may be issues in nickname synchronization from WordPress to wpForo if the WordPress interface is used and two users end up with the same nickname. After all, you cannot have two wpForo users with the same handle, and you cannot force WordPress to have the same behaviour as wpForo.
But this still leaves us with the problem that WordPress and wpForo handle those fields in a different way.

@lunell,
This problem is already fixed. We'll release the update very soon with the next wpForo 1.7.1 version. In the meantime you can fix this issue by removing the password field from registration form in Dashboard > Forums > Member fields > Register form tab. Just drug the password field and drop in the "Inactive fields" section below. Once the password field is removed and fields are saved you'll see the two password fields on registration form. This is a bit paradoxical but it should work until we release the update.

... you need to install our "wpForo User Custom fields" plugin. Through the provided dashboard, you can manage all user fields, including Adding the usergroup field to the registration form.
The Usergroup field by default uses a dropdown menu.
For displaying all groups alphabetically, custom scripting is required. If you need assistance with this, you can request help from our Pro Support Team. |

wpForo Integration |

Hi @bvsc,The "User registration" plugin saves "Biographical info" data in the Wordpress corresponding fields, so the wpForo make synchronization, and in the "About me" the date is visible. It seems that the "RegistrationMagic" plugin doesn't save the date in the Wordpress corresponding fields, thus the "About me" field is not visible.However, we don't recommend to use the plugin for registration. The wpForo has your own the registration form.Also, we may suggest you check out the wpForo – User Custom fields add-on to customize the tegistration form as you like. |

This will be taken into consideration for future updates.
Currently, I suggest you check the "wpForo Users Custom fields" addon created by gVectors team. It allows customizing User Account fields, Profile fields, registration fields, and Member Search fields based on your created custom user fields:

And after discussing with them further, they suggested:
Additional thoughts: In this case, the real issue seems to be that the wpForo form ignores the fact that other plugins may need to hook into the registration form. They could format their CSS in such a way that any extra fields would look the same as the default fields. I would recommend that they adjust their form CSS to make sure that if another plugin hooks into the registration form, their would not be any issues. You also can manually add CSS to format the fields if you like. |

We just released wpForo 1.8.0 middle version, then bug-fix 1.8.1 version!
Important update notes
wpForo 1.8.x versions are not compatible with old versions of addons. Please update addons right after the wpForo update and delete all caches. The wpForo Polls addon cannot even be activated with wpForo 1.8.x. In case you your license key is expired and you cannot update addons, we recommend do not update wpForo or just renew your addons license keys.

Some JS and CSS files are changed, please refresh (press Ctrl+F5) on forum front-end twice to reset browser cache, otherwise you'll see crashed design.
If you have a Cache or Minifier/Optimizer plugins please delete all caches after wpForo update.

We've re-developed topic and post editors to make those dynamic. This allowed us to create new addon "wpForo topic Custom Field". This addon allows you to create custom fields and manage topic forms layout. So you can use your forum as in other way, such as classified listing or business directory.
wpForo topics Custom fields addon:
2. Smooth post editing in the same place (there is no more scrolling down)
3. Calling to Login or Register in topics for guests
4. URL, shortcode and separate page to open Add New topic form
You can call it using /add-topic/ URL path. Like this:
You can add preselected forum ID to URL /add-topic/19/
You can use these shortcodes to create separate "Add topic Page" (wrap with [ at the biginning and ] at the end):
wpforo item="add-topic"
wpforo item="add-topic" id="19"
wpforo item="add-topic" slug="how-to-and-troubleshooting-2"
5. We've added options in user profile page to quickly edit and delete them in dashboard:

@veramilo,
Let try using Secondary Usergroups.
1. Edit the two new usergroups and check/enable the option "Can be used as Secondary".
2. Then buy wpForo User Custom fields addon, add new field in the registration form "Choose your Community" [secondary usergroups dropdown]. So the user could select one from those two usergroups and automatically get according secondary usergroup on registration. The secondary usergroup will let them access to according forum. Here is an example of the addon usage on registration form:

Are you sure that the default registration form of WordPress?
This is already built-in function. wpForo detects user registration and synchronize it even with default WordPress registration form. You can try it here:
Make sure you enter correct email address, you should confirm it to complete registration.
There is another solution, you just need to enable this option to only use wpForo registration page: |

@ikeduru4,
This is a problem of all websites, this is not wpForo problem. You should care about your website protection with special solutions.
First is provided by wpForo, it's the Google reCAPTCHA. Have you configured it in Dashboard > Forums > tools > Antispam admin page? Do you see the reCAPTCHA on your registration form? Have you enabled it for all registration forms?
Second is the Akismet. wpForo is well integrated with WordPress #1 antispam protection system. Please activate it too, there is even free activation for this plugin.
Third, make sure you don't have other unprotected registration form from other plugins. Some profile, eCommerce, membership and other plugins come with own registration form. Make sure those are disabled or protected.
And yes, use Antispam plugins, there are tons of them, however after installation, logout and do some test registration, make sure they don't conflict with wpForo and user registration works good, test all from registration > email confirmation to login... |
