Sorry my fault about the two different sub directories in the URL’s as I was trying both and guess I pasted them here incorrectly. However, even from one sub directory where I have it installed such as /wp39/ it happens. It also happens on my live server location as well.
The latest WP and bbPress versions,yes…actually tried it again with a fresh install of WP, but same issue and with twenty fourteen and thirteen.
No bbpress login widget, just logging in with the Default WordPress admin login form to get to the dashboard. So correct on the example wp-login.php url you posted. I will use my localhost on XAMPP as an example:
http://localhost/pref/wp-login.php
If I use http://localhost/pref/wp-admin I do get logged into the dashboard. The url becomes
http://localhost/wp39/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%2Fwp39%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1
when hitting the wp-admin url method.
Forgot to mention I also tried the default WP themes…same thing happens.
Thanks for the reply… If you are referring to the admin bar plugin for bbPress, that I don’t have, just the default WP user admin bar. I just finished testing all plugins I have installed, and one by one testing the login (each time closing the browser out), but as soon as I activate bbPress, that is when this phenomenon happens…I log into the dashboard and finding myself staring at the site’s front-page. I still have to add a subpage url to the browser address bar, or use the user admin bar at the top to get to the dashboard.
So, there is something about bbPress that is doing the front page redirect…even if I make bbPress the only active plugin. This does it on my local XAMPP location, as well as my demo site on a live server.
Incidentally, I’m on the latest WP and bbPress versions.
