I defined USER_COOKIE, PASS_COOKIE, AUTH_COOKIE, SECURE_AUTH_COOKIE, LOGGED_IN_COOKIE and TEST_COOKIE on my WP config for a single sign own with multiple WP hosted on a single domain + sub domain

Can someone tell me where I can define USER_COOKIE, PASS_COOKIE, AUTH_COOKIE, SECURE_AUTH_COOKIE, LOGGED_IN_COOKIE and TEST_COOKIE in BBPress and how?

Thanks

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

AUTH_COOKIE, SECURE_AUTH_COOKIE, and LOGGED_IN_COOKIE are all done in the bb-config,php file, same as it’s in the wp-config.php file. The only catch is you name them with BB_ in front, so its:

BB_AUTH_COOKIE

BB_SECURE_AUTH_COOKIE

BB_LOGGED_IN_COOKIE

The rest I don’t think you need to define.

[vanesta]

Unfortunately adding these value breaks WP/BBPress login integration (Same value as wp-config without bb_ prefix on the variable)

define(‘BB_AUTH_COOKIE’, ‘xxx’);

define(‘BB_SECURE_AUTH_COOKIE’, ‘xxx’);

define(‘BB_LOGGED_IN_COOKIE’, ‘xxx’);

Thanks for the reply ipstenu

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

You have to put them all in (and this is mentioned during the install and integration)

define('BB_AUTH_KEY', 'xxx');

define('BB_SECURE_AUTH_KEY', 'xxx');

define('BB_LOGGED_IN_KEY', 'xxx');

define('BB_NONCE_KEY', 'xxx');

define('BB_AUTH_SALT', 'xxx');

define('BB_LOGGED_IN_SALT', 'xxx');

define('BB_SECURE_AUTH_SALT', 'xxx');

You don’t have to define them all, in the settings.php if it’s not defined they get created for you in some respects for some of them. This will help you during integration.

In fact anytime you use these defines you are saying to bbpress that the value your defining will manually override anything in the DB.

A goal to have during integration is to try and let the apps do the most work. This way human error can be eliminated. Now there are always exceptions but on a ‘basic’ setup. So again, avoid defines unless otherwise specifically told to (say by the integration plugin or bbpress integration settings).

[vanesta]

Thanks for teh reply guys, but again, this is about overriding cookie setting, not _Auth

xxxxxx_COOKIE

[Jason Giedymin]

Post your versions up. Fill out below:

WP? WPMU?

blog is subdomain? folder?

bbpress .9? 1.0?

Integration plugin ver?

[vanesta]

Both installation on WP (2.

WP1 is on domain.com, and WP2 is on sub.domain.com (same domain name)

Both allow single sign on between WP1 and WP2 with this on wp-config.php

define(‘COOKIE_DOMAIN’, ‘.domain.com’);

define(‘COOKIEPATH’, ‘/’);

define(‘AUTH_SALT’, ‘6428746726478264’);

define(‘LOGGED_IN_SALT’, ‘74829749827489237424’);

define(‘AUTH_COOKIE’, ‘7482647263478623478’);

define(‘SECURE_AUTH_COOKIE’, ‘985847584758475’);

define(‘LOGGED_IN_COOKIE’, ‘98752975897435894375894’);

define(‘TEST_COOKIE’, ‘8947519875894758495’);

So I basically override the cookie also.

Now I installed BBPress (1.0)

These WP-CONFIG setting won’t work even I added BB_LOGGED_IN_COOKIE variable

It only works with BBPress if i use these only

define(‘COOKIE_DOMAIN’, ‘.domain.com’);

define(‘COOKIEPATH’, ‘/’);

define(‘AUTH_KEY’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);

define(‘SECURE_AUTH_KEY’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);

define(‘LOGGED_IN_KEY’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);

define(‘NONCE_KEY’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);

define(‘AUTH_SALT’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);

define(‘LOGGED_IN_SALT’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);

But if I add anything with _COOKIE bbpress + wp signed on won’t work, if I take it out, it will with with BBPress but multiple WP single sing on won’t work

Thanks guys

vanesta, this was flagged as spam by akismet and I rescued it.

[vanesta]

Thanks Chris. Any pointer would be helpful in defining _COOKIE settings

[vanesta]

Anyone could help? Thanks

[joseffb]

I’m not able to get WPMU 2.8.4 and BP 1 to SSO at all. I tried and can’t get it to work any help would be grateful.

I have the multi-domain plugin setup and also have the bbpress-integrate plugin in the “plugins” directory.

Josef, take out in wp-config

/**bbpress integration **/

define('USER_COOKIE', 'wordpressuser');

define('PASS_COOKIE', 'wordpresspass');

define('COOKIEPATH', $base);

define('SITECOOKIEPATH', '/');

define('COOKIE_DOMAIN', '.thisissite2.com'); // same as bbPress

and bb-config

$bb->wp_home = 'http://thisissite2.com/';

$bb->wp_siteurl = 'http://thisissite2.com/';



// Integrating with mu

$bb->cookiepath = '/';

$bb->cookiedomain = '.thisissite2.com'; // leading . allows subdomain sharing

$bb->usercookie = 'wordpressuser'; // WPMU doesn't hash cookies

$bb->passcookie = 'wordpresspass'; // WPMU doesn't hash cookies

Use this plugin https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-integration/

If you’re using MU you will get 4 lines, cookiehash, cookie_domain, sitecookiepath, and cookiepath.

get the information from there and put it right AFTER this line in wp-config

* @package WordPress

*/

then paste only cookie_domain, sitecookiepath, and cookiepath in bb-config file. leave out cookiehash right after

* @package bbPress

*/

Then get new keys, use this link https://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/salt it has 8 keys put it in both like you did before. Don’t forget the BB_ prefix in bb-config.

Clear your cache and cookies. Give it a try. if that doesn’t work then look in your BB dashboard and check your settings on wordpress integration. make sure if you left out “www” in wordpressd to leave it out on bbpress.

[joseffb]

Not working.

The bbpress plugin didn’t give me a domain name so I added it in, but I had to leave it off of the wp-config because if I add it in then the primary domain (with a different domain name) can’t login correctly.

Primary = theitsites.com (blog ID 1)

Secondary = channeltechcenter.com (blog ID 15)

Forum = channeltechcenter.com/forum

This is how my config files look now:

bb-config.php:

define( ‘SITECOOKIEPATH’, ‘/’ );

define( ‘COOKIEPATH’, ‘/’ );

define( ‘COOKIE_DOMAIN’, ‘.channeltechcenter.com’ );
