I’m attempting to upgrade a website I run for a group to both WordPress and BBPress. I have integrated the two and the user accounts are in sync. Everything is working fine, except…

When a user logs in from the WordPress index page, it doesn’t log them in for BBPress. This is a problem, because I want to have administration links for accounts on the homepage of my website. I want a user to login and be able to click on ‘Settings’ and go to their BBPress settings page. Also, I want them to be able to click on “Messages” and go to their BBPress messages.

So, my question is – when a user logs in to the WordPress homepage, how can I make sure they are logged into the BBPress forums as well, without requiring them to log in a second time when they go to the forums?

Thanks for your help!

What versions did you try to integrate?

If you scan the tag for integration you will see lots of people who have the same exact problem as you.
