Reply To: BBpress Login widget creates a weird double-login process

Hi @wout77!

So running in a clean environment with no other plugins, etc, I don’t actually see the same thing.

The login widget provided by bbPress is really just a simple (but customizable) wrapper around WordPress’s regular login process. Though you may not realize it, the username and password fields are simply passed to wp-login.php (and the reason you may not notice this is that a redirect is performed to take the successfully logged in user back to whatever page they started on).

With that in mind…my hunch is that this is not a problem with bbPress, but rather with another plugin (or perhaps even your theme).

If you are unsure what’s causing this and there are no obvious sources of the problem (such as a Captcha plugin), it could be worth doing a round of selective deactivation of other plugins and/or your theme to try and find out what’s causing this. Make sense?
