In new 2.7+ versions of Wordpress and WPMU there is no mention of SECRET_KEY or SECRET_SALT, the config instead lists the following 7 keys:</p> <p>define('AUTH_KEY', 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX');<br /> define('SECURE_AUTH_KEY', 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX');<br /> define('LOGGED_IN_KEY', 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX');<br /> define('NONCE_KEY', 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX');<br /> define('AUTH_SALT', 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX');<br /> define('LOGGED_IN_SALT', 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX');<br /> define('SECURE_AUTH_SALT', 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX');</p> <p>While the BBPRESS config only lists one key:</p> <p>define('BB_SECRET_KEY', 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX'); </p> <p>Which key in WPMU 2.7+ is equivalent to BB_SECRET_KEY?<br /> Or, do i now need to define all 7 of the Wordpress secret keys in bbpress as well? Eg. BB_AUTH_KEY, BB_SECURE_AUTH_KEY, BB_LOGGED_IN_KEY, etc... </p> <p>Any help clearing up this config confusion would be great.

You've made my day! I've spent hours trawling the bbPress and WPMU forums for this...</p> <p>For what it's worth, my problem was the SECRET_SALT. I'd done everything else right, but each time I logged into either bb or wp I was logged out of the other 'cause of the cookie value being encrypted differently... I thought the salt may have been the problem, but I wasn't quite sure what it did. This is the first thread I've found which even mentions it!</p> <p>Thanks...<br /> Caesar </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wpmu-151-bbpress-0902-login-cookie-solved#post-16586 Tue, 03 Jun 2008 00:19:37 +0000 tdjcbe 16586@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Thanks for this.

But you are right that the WPMU one cannot, mostly for login compatibility between blogs within WPMU.</p> <p>Obviously you should choose your own secret and salt values, not the one's given above. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wpmu-151-bbpress-0902-login-cookie-solved#post-16508 Thu, 29 May 2008 09:38:52 +0000 sepidol 16508@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>my mistake,<br /> make sure your BB_SECRET_KEY and BB_SECRET_SALT value on your bb-config.php are the same with SECRET_KEY and SECRET_SALT value on your wp-config.php</p> <p>cheers,</p> <p>--<br /> rh </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wpmu-151-bbpress-0902-login-cookie-solved#post-16507 Thu, 29 May 2008 09:35:09 +0000 sepidol 16507@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>i just solved my login cookie issue after one night debugging...<br /> i found these things:<br /> - by default, wpmu generate auth_cookie as "wordpress", but bbpress generate as "wordpress_xxxxx(hash)"</p> <p>- wpmu not using "database secret" for cookie hashing, but it use the SECRET_SALT constant defined in the wp-config.php, bbpress using "database secret". so the cookie result will never be the same.</p> <p>you need to update your bb-config.php file to meet these situations.<br /> assumed you've successfully install wpmu + bbpress, then edit your bb-config.php and add these line:</p> <p>define('BB_SECRET_KEY', 'yourreallysecretkey');<br /> define('BB_SECRET_SALT', 'yourreallysecretsalt');</p> <p>$bb-&gt;authcookie = 'wordpress';<br /> $bb-&gt;cookiedomain = '.yourdomain.com';<br /> $bb-&gt;cookiepath = '/';<br /> $bb-&gt;sitecookiepath = '';</p> <p>and try to login... voila.. you can switch to bbpress and wpmu without re-login... :)</p> <p>good luck,</p> <p>--<br /> rh </p>
