[Plugin: bbPress] Cannot login to bbPress forum
-
Hello WordPress Users,
Recently I’ve been wanting to create a bbPress forum on my WordPress website. I was able to successfully install the plugin through WordPress, create a new forum, set Settings, etc …
However, I simply cannot login to the new forum I’ve created (the formatting on the forum is not good, but I’ll worry about that until AFTER its functional): http://epochgames.co.uk/forums/forum/test/
To see what I mean, try registering (which I’ve had no problem with: I receive the registration email, and have seen my account appear in WordPress Dashboard settings related to Users), but then try logging in … when I try logging in, I’m taken back to the same page, with the same login box, and unable to post. I’ve had other on my development team try as well, with the same result. And yes, there is a thread there, but I was only able to post it after checking “Allowing guests to post” in Settings, and post as a guest. I’ve since disabled the feature.
I even downloaded Peter’s Login Redirect plugin, and tested my forum account to redirect to a different page on the domain after login … and it does redirect, but I’m still not logged in! Really weird, right?
Also I’ve noticed that when trying to login to WordPress via the wp-login.php page redirects me to the main page, instead of the Dashboard. Thankfully, I can still Dashboard by going to its URL, and it says I’m logged in, but obviously this is strange behavior. When I disable the bbPress plugin, the WordPress login properly redirects to the DashBoard.
Any ideas what could be wrong? I am definitely a WordPress Newbie, so it could be something simple, but I’ve not found a topic with this same problem, I’ve skimmed through the FAQ and found nothing about this … any help would be great.
