Forum and Wordpress Usernames and Password Accounts

[robobobo]

Hey Guys,

I currently have a word press section on my website for news www.techinfo-4u.com/wpnews

Visitors have the option to register so they can leave comments on it,

I will be setting up a forum aswell in the near future, is there a way that if users register on my wordpress page that those usernames and passwords will work in the forum and vice versa? This would save them from having to sign up twice


Hope there is a way

Thanks

It would depend on the forum software you are using, but just search google for "wordpress *insert forum* integration", and you should turn up a mod and installation instructions to integrate them.

Just change the green *insert forum* with for instance phpbb3, or vbulletin.. whatever software you choose
