    I updated my web site today to bbPress 0.9.0.2 and WordPress 2.5.1. Cookie integration settings got out of whack and I put them back, but now the two are in conflict.

    I've verified (by clearing cookies and watching as new cookies are registered) that both bbPress and WordPress are using the same cookie for login info -- same name, path, etc.

    However, when logging into WordPress I am logged out of bbPress, and when logging into bbPress I am logged out of WordPress. So they appear to be using the same cookie and overwriting it as I login to each section.

    Note that the SECRET_KEY and BB_SECRET_KEY definitions in each respective config files are identical.

    The cookie seems to be broken up into three parts: user name, a shortish numerical code (in decimal), and a long hexadecimal code. The name and shortish numerical code are identical between bbPress and WordPress but the long hex code changes every time. Does this help provide a clue?

  4. Having just read the thread over here, I went and rechecked that my WordPress "secret" setting as listed in /wp-admin/options.php matched the setting in my bbPress admin-stettings-wp-integration screen and found that somehow they no longer matched. My best guess is that in the database "update" with the 2.5.1 upgrade of WP, it regenerated the database secret, thus killing the integration.
