Here goes nothing…

The other day after upgrading to WordPress 3 I decided to create a new user, delete de old “admin” user and set the right permissions to the new user.

Now the problem is that I’ve integrated wordpress and bbpress. When I login to the forum, it doesn’t recognize the new user as admin. Therefore I can’t access the bbpress admin section.

When I go to forum/bb-admin/ it just takes me back to the forum’s index.

Is there a way to change this?

Delete all the cookies for your site in your browser and try again. That worked for me.

Been there, done that. Even though I’m using the same database for wordpress/bbpress it doesn’t recognizes the new user as an admin.

Bump. If anyone knows how to fix this I would really appreciate it.
