loging into wordpress blocks acp access on phpbb

    When you login to wordpress admin panel and then goto phpbb your logged in fine until you try to goto the admin control panel on phpbb where it asks you to reauth yourself.

    If you log into phpbb first you wont be logged into wordpress. If you login to wordpress after logging into phpbb and then goto phpbb again and try to goto the acp and reauth yourself you will get stuck in a loop of being sent back to the forum home page.

    Sometimes wordpress wont redirect properly if you happen to be logged in as a different user on phpbb then you are on wordpress.

    If you have wordpress open and phpbb open at the same time and login on wordpress then supposedly you arent logged into phpbb until you close and open a new tab for phpbb (according to one of the admins on the wordpress installation).

    Also changing your password on wordpress doesn;t change it on phpbb but it does vice versa.

    But changingnit on phpbb changes it on wordpress
    profile update done in phpBB is done in WP when the user visit as logged (or login) wp side.
    While profile fields update is done at same time in WP and phpBB when profile update is done in WP side (as it is a WP plugin and his code run only on WP side).

    Think should be some problem with some plugin so, have you one that you use for custom wp profile’s pages?

    Looking just to the avatar code for example, i’ve add a fix right now, latest was not exactly done at right point, and was not solving completely a problem, so on some circumstances can lead to a php notice (php notices that on online sites are normally suppressed) another onlogin where a php notice is issued, if username that try to login not exist on WP. So these are minor fixes, and at moment still not added to the online downloadable plugin code.

    The plugin will be reviewed and improved as soon is possible under many (all) aspects, and any help by anybody to make it better for all, would be very appreciated!

    … the bug you report was in part correct, this the result after a fast test:

    the login error, ERROR: Invalid email address come out when, the admin try to login BY Email not username.
    the same happen to users, but the error in this case is Username or email already exist on our forum db … if they try to login by email and there email on phpBB are different.

    Conditions for the bug to come out (on my test) seem to be:
    User need to login by email (this not happen if you try the same by username) in wp. And his email need to be different in phpBB. And you need to try to login in Wp, using the email address that is set on phpBB for the user. If you try to login by email that is setup for for the user in wp, instead, the bug not exist (as the email for the user will be found on WP, and correctly updated in phpBB).

    This problem will be fixed as soon, and if you think that there is some other case, please report like above the procedure to get the error.

    if the plugin tries to load the avatar from phpbb side, it always tries to load from http. My site uses https so maybe adding a protocol parameter in plugin settins?

    check out the 1.5.4 about avatars, that should definitively fix any problem.
    about yours password problem, and login problems, it result i cannot reproduce unfortunately at moment on any test.
    About my reported bug, will be resolved on next version.

    Not sure how this got resolved but now the plugin isn’t even logging us in to phpbb when we login using wordpress anymore. Vice versa is the same.

    Accessing the admin panel on the forums while logged into wordpress still seems to be futile.
