## Description

When users are first created, they are automatically assigned to the primary blog.
But, you may want to set them up on multiple blogs by default. This is especially
helpful if you’re using bbpress or other forum software where the user needs a role
on that blog in order to participate. This plugin allows site admins to set the 
default role on as many blogs as desired for all new users.

    in the wp-content/mu-plugins folder.
 2. Go to Site Admin – New User Default Role to activate the plugin and set default
    roles.
