    Hello

    I have problems after the update.
    I can login to phpbb and I am also logged in to WordPress. I logoff in phph, stay loggedin in wordpress. I loogin in to WordPress, phpbb will not login me.
    Unfortunately, I have only one day before the update installed the plugin, I think it was different before the update.

    Hello!
    Please can you try this:
    open wp_w3all.php file
    search for line:
    // $w3reset_cookie_domain = '.mydomain.com'; // (set 'localhost' if you're on localhost) change to fit THE SAME COOKIE DOMAIN SETTING as you have set it in phpBB config (note the dot in front). To RESET/force cookie domain setting: remove // chars in front of this line, edit and save, than load any WP page one time. So comment out other time this line re-adding // chars and save.
    remove two chars in front and setup as:
    $w3reset_cookie_domain = '.mydomain.com';
    changing the .mydomain.com into what is your domain name.
    Overwrite the wp_w3all.php and load any wordpress page.
    Reset your cookie on browser, login.
    If all ok, re-add the two chars in front of the line you’ve edit into wp_w3all.php file, or remove (it is not more needed and add a query to db each time WP is loaded), and overwrite other time wp_w3all.php file.
    Should be resolved. Let know please! Or i need to check as soon this to be sure all is ok after latest update to 1.8.2.

    Sorry for my late reply.
    I made the changes and everything worked. Then I undo the changes and signed off in WP.
    I’m getting a Error in Firefox.

    Error: redirection error
    The website called redirects the request so that it can never be quit.
    This issue can sometimes occur when cookies are disabled or rejected.
    the forum is on a subdomain.

    hello yes, always a cookie problem.
    you still in problems or cleaning cookies on browser, then logging in all result ok?
    the important thing is, if phpBB is on subdomain, that you setup by the way on phpBB cookie setting, the domain to be:
    .mydomain.com
    and NOT
    mysubdomain.mydomain.com
    or .mysub.mydomain.com
    the path setting need to be a single slash:
    /

    done this, you should logout, clean all cookies on browser, login.
    Report if still in trouble, 1.8.3 will be fixed under any aspect about cookies if still there are problems.
