From visiting your site, I think your WordPress site is functioning as the [DiscourseConnect](https://meta.discourse.org/t/13045?silent=true) authentication provider for your Discourse site. If that is correct, you can use the `add_user_to_discourse_group` helper function to add WordPress users to Discourse groups: [https://github.com/discourse/wp-discourse/blob/main/lib/utilities.php#L278-L326](https://github.com/discourse/wp-discourse/blob/main/lib/utilities.php#L278-L326). Details about using the function are here:

> [WP Discourse](https://github.com/discourse/wp-discourse) functions The [WP Discourse](https://github.com/discourse/wp-discourse) plugin has a couple of functions that can be used to associate WordPress users with Discourse groups. These functions are only enabled on sites that are using WordPress as the SSO provider for Discourse. add\_user\_to\_discourse\_group( $user\_id, $group\_names ) [View Code](https://github.com/discourse/wp-discourse/blob/main/lib/utilities.php#L278-L301) remove\_user\_from\_discourse\_group( $user\_id, $group\_names ) [View Code](https://github.com/discourse/wp-discourse/blob/main/lib/utilities.php#L303-L326) Each of these functions take the same two parameters: $user\_id: the WordPress user’s id $group\_names: a comma separat…

Note the `use` statement at the top of the code example:

```php
use WPDiscourse\Utilities\Utilities as DiscourseUtilities;

```

And how that is then used to call the (static) function:

```php
$result = DiscourseUtilities::add_user_to_discourse_group( $user_id, $group_name );

```
