Could it have anything to do with my wordpress install being at http://larm:8888 and the forum at http://forum.larm:8888 ?
Let me just add that it is the shared login that does not work. The deep integration is working and I am using the wordpress menu inside the bbpress theme without any problems.
Hi Kevin
Thanks for the tip. However, I have already followed the guide once and I just did it again to double check.
All keys match in both config files. The bb press once has BB_ added in front of the key names. The cookie paths has been set, users mapped, and even the wp-load.php has been set. Keys are correct as they appear locked in the “wordpress integration” section of bbpress – also the table_prefix is set to wp_ as it should. Basically I think everything has been set up as it should.
I am testing this using mamp pro and the bbpress folder is inside the wordpress folder. I am beginning to think it has something to do with my setup. I have been trying to figure it out for days now.
Seems like I inserted a code tag at the wrong place in the above post. However, the keys are correct on both sides.
