For some reason, whenever I try to access the bbPress admin area directly I get redirected back to the front page. I do have WP and BB integrated, but if you log in from WP, BB recognizes your login fine. Everything works except trying to access the admin area; I have to log out and then log back in using BB’s log in form. Any ideas? (yes, the user has admin-level access)

Sign out. Then log in from your forum instead of logging in from wordpress.

You might want to check my other thread about this. (I had the same problem)

Thanks Alekseo. Yeah, that was a workaround I was trying to avoid since this is for a client. I did find the solution here though: https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/fix-admin-access/

Worked like a charm!
