Hi, I did an integration between wordpress and bbpress about six months ago. About 2 months ago, I lost the ability to login to my admin screen for bbpress. When I go to my bbpress forum, I’m automatically logged in as the admin and can add/delete posts, edit my profile (it looks like I’m still the keymaster, but I’m not sure), etc. However, I can’t get to my bbpress admin panel. When I click on the “Forum Dashboard” link, it takes me to my wordpress admin panel. When I go to the URL that used to take me to my bbpress admin panel, I get my wordpress blog page (a default page, I believe). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I have exactly the same issue

I integrated (cookie) not data and seem to loose the admin area

I can seem to find the bb-config.php only a sample

Make sure you have the integration plugin running on the WordPress side

Yep. I’ve got the integration plugin running on the WordPress side (if it’s the one called “BBPress Admin”). When I click on it in the WordPress admin panel, I get a sub-window that should be the bbpress admin panel. Instead, it’s just showing my blog (which I think it’s picking up as a default.) Thanks for the suggestion though…

Try logging out of both bbpress and wp, then logging back into bbpress only. That works for me.

@ topic starter this is a known issue for a long time..

You can’t do anything against it. (maybe do a new integration) but don’t do anything without backing up..

Try this:

Go back to your WordPress site Log-out > move back to the forum page and log-in on the bbPress site as the admin than you see you can go to the bbPress back-end..

Now you also can go to the WordPress site and jump to the WordPress back-end.

So my advice would be try to delete the WordPress log-in section from your WordPress site and try to include the bbPress log-in section into the WordPress section else you will keep this issue.

Hello,

fel, I have recently installed fresh new wordpress and bbpress on my web site. I am still running into the problem of posts not being created unless default forum is filled in on the options screen. However, I can’t override this by using a different forum number on the write a post page. Any idea what the hangup is there?

Thanks

Cool. I finally got in. Thanks, everyone. What I did was install the bbPress Integration plugin, clear my cookies, and then log into bbpress admin w/ a different browser (Firefox instead of IE).
