I’ve been playing with [DiscourseConnect](https://meta.discourse.org/t/13045?silent=true) - the documentation is great, thanks.  
However i’ve hit a few roadbumps i’m hoping for some help/clarification on.

We are wanting users to be able to login to Wordpress using their Discourse login (that is working fine 🙂 ) - however.

- Is it possible to create a Wordpress User via Discourse Signup (when a user creates a Discourse user account, it automatically creates a wordpress account/profile for them so they can log into wordpress)

- Is it possible to sync Workpress User Groups and Discourse Groups.  
If a user has both a Wordpress and Discourse user account, [DiscourseConnect](https://meta.discourse.org/t/13045?silent=true) is able to join them - but doesn’t give the wordpress account the User Groups of the Discourse Groups of the same name, and vis versa (and what about if groups don’t have the same name - how can i tell [DiscourseConnect](https://meta.discourse.org/t/13045?silent=true) to give the User Group ‘Testing Group’ when the user has the Discourse Group ‘Group for Testing Things’?

What am i missing?
