Hi AxeW3,
I discovered recently when an existing phpBB member visited the Wordpress (multisite) area, his account is not created in the Wordpress user database. He appears to be logged into Wordpress, and can log in and out of Wordpress, but no Wordpress account is created, nor does he have (subscriber) permissions.

Re: phpBB members registration not created in Wordpress
testing after all updates to WP 4.9 and latest 1.7.9 plugin.
all is working fine until now, doing these tests steps:
i've login in phpBB with an user, so i've load WordPress main site, user added, logged and with proper role as subscriber.
So i've create for this user, via main admin, a site, using email to attribute to this user a new created subsite: i reload the page with the user, it now have the site assigned by the main admin to him, and he can manage as admin this site.
Now i like to login another phpBB user, with another browser, and i will try to come as logged in in phpBB into the subsite, where then this user will be added. I REMEMBER SO, that i need to setup for this subsite, the wp_w3all plugin (that is network activated) about path and url on config, or the plugin isn't active into this subsite, and when user will come to visit, will not be added.
.... .... after a little lunch time .... ....
Going to setup the same config for wp_w3all into this subsite:
so i try to visit this subsite with a logged phpBB user ...
it is correctly added into the subsite.
And now what you maybe mean:
SO if this user, go to visit the main site, after it has been added alreadu into the subsite, it isn't added into the main site.
As explained on procedure, the user will be added on multisite configuration, into the FIRST site the user will visit, when he is coming as logged into phpBB, visiting WP. So i see this user listed on users that belong to the subsite, and not into main WP.
Isn't it the right behavior?

Re: phpBB members registration not created in Wordpress
Hi AxeW3,
Thanks for your response.
I will try to describe in more detail my setup and issue.
Wordpress Users in /wp-admin/network/ = 148 Subscribers, 1 Super Admin (me)
Wordpress Users in Wordpress root = 86 Subscribers, 1 Admin (me)
These two areas are only visited by me.
The Wordpress Subsites which are visited by site users include:
/museum/ with 23 Subscribers plus 1 Admin (me)
/archive/ with 13 Subscribers, 1 Admin (me)
The problem:
phpBB user 'buggins' is a User (Subscriber) in /wp-admin/network/ but nowhere else
When he visits /museum/, he appears to be logged in but he does not actually have subscriber permissions - presumably because he is not registered as a User in that Subsite.
Thanks for your response.

Re: phpBB members registration not created in Wordpress
hi! Be patient 
Let me understand and do a step more, so when i will return over for the 1.8.0 that will try to fix all about common iframe issues (for not too skilled users that need all ready, and working), will add seo for iframed posts and several more things, we can add also this one about MUMS.
I'm doing a new interesting plugin, that i not want to speak about until not completely ready, so sorry if i not go deep with tests and understanding all WP documentation (also due to my bad eng).
My question is:
into a default WP MUMS install, a registered subsite user, do not have this behavior?
If yes as i presume (but maybe i'm wrong), should we add the option into plugin, that on WP MSMU, coming logged phpBB users are added on fly in WP MSMU not only into first site they visit, but also into any other subsite?

Re: phpBB members registration not created in Wordpress
My middle name is 'Patience'. 
Thanks for your patience, by the way.
I think mine is a fairly default WP MUS setup, but I don't have another for testing.
I notice now that the subscriber is in the /archive/ subsite.
Presumably this is the subsite he first visited. This allows him to publish content on that subsite.
But, as mentioned, he is not registered as a user at /museum/ so he cannot publish content there.
This suggests to me that I (we) need an option (as you suggested) "that on WP MSMU, coming logged phpBB users are added on fly in WP MSMU not only into first site they visit, but also into any other subsite".
