Re: WordPress + bbPress Integration 101
Something I could not find in this or any other thread concerning integration of 0.9.0.2 with wp 2.5. Problem is that a login to either bbPress or WordPress will log a user OUT of the other, can not be logged into both at same time. Common problem but different question. Several people have suggested adding the following to the bb-config.php:
$bb->usercookie = ‘wordpressuser’;
$bb->passcookie = ‘wordpresspass’;
Questions: are these really needed, should the full hash number (wordpressuser_full.hash.number) also be included and if so, where do I find the hash code? Using Firefox, the I see two cookies when logged into either bb or wp:
wordpress_test_cookie
wordpress_cabxxxxxxxxxxxx
The Secret keys are identical for both bb and wp config files. Also I have:
In bb-config file:
$bb->wp_table_prefix = ‘wp_’;
$bb->user_bbdb_name = ‘xxxxxxxxxx’;
$bb->user_bbdb_user = ‘xxxxxxxxxx’;
$bb->user_bbdb_password = ‘xxxxxxx’;
$bb->user_bbdb_host = ‘xxxxxxxxxxx’;
$bb->custom_user_table = ‘wp_users’;
$bb->custom_user_meta_table = ‘wp_usermeta’;
$bb->authcookie = ‘wordpress_cabxxxxxxx’; //identical to what is shown in Firefox cookie
$bb->cookiedomain = ‘.alleventsadviser.com’;
define(‘COOKIE_DOMAIN’, ‘.alleventsadviser.com’);
$bb->cookiepath = ‘/’;
define(‘COOKIEPATH’, ‘/’);
$bb->sitecookiepath = ‘/’;
In wp-config:
$table_prefix = ‘wp_’;
$wp->cookiedomain = ‘.alleventsadviser.com’;
define(‘COOKIE_DOMAIN’, ‘.alleventsadviser.com’);
$wp->cookiepath = ‘/’;
define(‘COOKIEPATH’, ‘/’);
$wp->sitecookiepath = ‘/’;
define(‘SITECOOKIEPATH’, ‘/’);
A registered user is shown in both bb and wp.
Thanks for any help.
