    Hello!!

    I am starting my first WordPress Blog after working with other applications and creating my own sites in Flash and other applications. I had some preliminary questions that I was hoping someone could help me with.

    I really liked the user log-in widget on this WordPress Theme:
    https://bavotasan.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/magazine-basic-800.jpg

    Is this difficult to add to an existing theme that I found more aesthically appealing? What I hope to do is combine WordPress with BBpress so that only those with a login and user name can access the site to post comments and to the forum and that they both use the same user name and log-in.

    Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.

    In my opinion, to do what you’re looking to do, you may want to consider a CMS like Expression Engine, which combines a CMS and a Forum within the same login environment, database. I’ve used the few forum plugins that WP has, and they are pretty weak, IMO.

    Just my opinion, good luck.
