    I'm digging the idea of bb inside wordpress. thanks

    installed bb following integration with wordpress. installed fine. however, none of my logins work for bbpress. if i try to write a post, i'm asked to login. i do so, and the login doesn't allow me to post or comment on threads. nor can i get into the admin area.

    i know the login is correct because when i use a false login, i get an error message - which doesn't happen when i use the correct login. all that happens when i login with the correct info is i end up being told i need to login again. it's as though i'm stuck in some loop.

    not sure what to do next. any help?

    Thanks astereo:

    Solved my problem. It was coming from

    #
    $bb->wp_table_prefix = false; // 'wp_'; // WordPress table prefix.
    #
    $bb->wp_home = false; // WordPress - Options->General: Blog address (URL) // No trailing slash
    #
    $bb->wp_siteurl = false; // WordPress - Options->General: WordPress address (URL) // No trailing slash

    I had set the urls only to domain.com/directory, when I added the http and www it worked fine.

  3. This sounds like: http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/52

    After you try to login, does it still display the login form or does it instead show you the profile, admin, and logout links?

    define('CUSTOM_USER_TABLE', 'wp_users');
    define('CUSTOM_USER_META_TABLE', 'wp_usermeta');

    this helped me in getting bb press to usre the same users of wp. Now, i need them to share the same session. (test user can log into wpmu account, and not having to loginto bbpress to post to forums.)

    Actually, is there any downside into making bb use wp's users like that?
