bbpress integrated into wordpress, and dashboards log each other out

  • Hello, I’m brand new to both WordPress & bbPress, but successfully managed to follow all instructions for integration. Everything seems to have worked quite well, with 1 exception. When I access the dashboard panel on either WordPress or bbPress, it logs me out of the other.

    I can navigate the blog on WordPress, leave comments, etc., and vice versa on bbPress, without having to log back in to either; it only occurs when I access the Dashboard panels.

    I suppose if I have to, I can live with this, as its just a nuisance, but would love to fix it if possible.

    I am not that good at php yet, just learning as I go. Pretty sure I got all the cookie integration correct. I found a couple of posts on here suggesting things like:

    ‘AddHandler x-httpd-php5 .php

    AddHandler x-httpd-php .php4′

    When I first tried the above, it seemed to have solved the issue, only it broke other links on the site (this caused downloads to occur rather than links).

    Using WordPress 3.0.1 & bbPress 1.0.2.

    My Host provider is JustHost & server has php 5 with phpSuExec enabled.

    Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks

  • Meant to say I tried adding the php flags to the .htaccess file by the way.

    Someone might be able to correct me if I’m wrong, but maybe this has something to do with php flags not working in .htaccess when phpSuExec is enabled? Not sure.

    Okay, looks like I figured out the issue.

    Nothing at all like I thought.

    I followed a few things from this guide: http://wpbbpthemes.org/integration/

    I used the WordPress MU settings rather than the standard WordPress settings in the BB_config & WP_config files both.

    So basically I added to the beginning of each of those:

    define( ‘COOKIEHASH’, ‘4ec2be76cfe2b6c707014602c3cc078f’ );

    define( ‘SITECOOKIEPATH’, ‘/’ );

    define( ‘COOKIEPATH’, ‘/’ );

    instead of just:

    define( ‘COOKIEPATH’, ‘/’ );

    Then I verified that ALL 8 of the define lines from the WP_config file, both the Key & the Salt were in the BB_config file (for some reason only had 4 of them, the Key files and no Salt files).

    Problem Solved.
