    Hey ! πŸ™‚

    I wonder : What’s the difference between using your login widget and another wordpress random login widget ? Since registration/login is the same between PhpBB and WordPress, it should work with any plugin, no ?

    If it’s not possible to use another login plugin, do you think you can add some features to your login widget ? Like displaying the PhpBB avatar when logged and the new messages from PhpBB inbox ?

    Thank you one more time for your great plugin and great support.

    πŸ™‚ well, it is not very useful in true, as it is possible use phpBB or WP respective logins.
    It come from very first one version, where the plugin was able to login users in wp only after a login in phpBB: so the user was logged so in in WP on redirect in this case.
    We can say it is present just to confuse, or as possible feature maybe for those who want modify some plugin behavior!

    Yes it is possible use any other login widget but:
    1) if it is a front end widget ajax that perform the login in WP, than it should not reset $_POST vars. If the ajax plugin reset the default wp credentials $_POST array, than is necessary to modify directly the ajax plugin, to get correctly work it with WP_w3all at moment.
    2) if the plugin login use a custom login page (such wp ultimate member or others) to login users, the plugin should use default $_POST native vars to login users, or WP w3_all will not work as expected, a phpBB cookie will not be released on WP login, and the login will fail on WP side if done by using this plugin login page, but of course instead the login still will work, if you’ll point to native wp-login.php page.

    It is necessary to re-look the code to fix in case once for all this problem. It will be done.
    If in trouble with a free plugin, just repost the problem. Non free plugins aren’t freely supported.
