[bbDev] Re: "You've Been Blocked" Error

Dave,  I'm posting this to bbdev for archival purposes.  Be sure to

This must be because the account doesn't have any capabilities.  Look  
in bbPress' usermeta table for a meta_key that looks like  
$bb_table_prefix . 'capabilities' (e.g. bb_capabilities).  If there's  
not one, there needs to be.  Create one for the appropriate user id  
and give it a meta_value of

a:1:{s:9:"keymaster";b:1;}

Then all should work.  I'm curious, though, how a user managed to get  
created without any caps.  Was this a pre-existing user from your WP  
install?  That's a situation we haven't dealt with yet.

It'd be great if, and this goes for everyone, during your  
integration, you could keep track of all the little annoyances and  
any thoughts on how things could be better.  One of bbPress' main  
goals is ease of interoperability with WordPress.
