   I've written my own custom plugin to have bbPress use my site's authentication system (it's not wordpress). It's working beautifully (for the most part). I replace bb_is_user_logged_in and bb_current_user (and the latter sets bb_set_current_user).

   The problem is this: AJAX calls to add a new tag, to remove an existing tag (your own or as admin), or to delete a post all fail with a "you don't have permission to do that". I see that other plugins have had that problem too. However, if I submit the request using the old school (non-AJAX) url, it works just fine.

   So I'm guessing there's something unique in the AJAX calls and that code seems dense to me. Can anyone suggest some places to check first?

   There is a change to the way AJAX calls are checked for permission in the next release (0.9, coming any day now I swear).

   So this may just fix itself when you move to bbPress 0.9 - in any case, I wouldn't try to fix it right now as the changes in 0.9 will probably break your fix anyway.

   thanks, sam,

   I neglected to mention that I was working on an build of 0.9 from a few days ago. Is this a change that you checked in recently? either way, I guess I can wait for the final release to re-check it. but let me know.
