 * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-addonchat/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-addonchat/)
 * This plugin works in recent previous versions, but not in 3+…
 * It receives the error “invalid username or password” when trying to login.
 * I believe its the variables that are different in latest wordpress version?:
 *     ```
       <?php
   
       // Include the WordPress bootstrap
       include_once(dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/../../../wp-config.php');
   
       $using_ras = ( get_option( 'addonchat_use_ras' ) == 'yes' );
   
       // Start printing
       print "scras.version = 2.0\n";
   
       if( $using_ras ) {
   
       	// Decode the username and password
       	$username = urldecode( $_GET[ 'username' ] );
       	$password = urldecode( $_GET[ 'password' ] );
   
       	// See if it is possible for these credentials to login
       	$login = wp_login( $username, $password );
       	$user = get_userdatabylogin( $username );
       	if( $login ) { // The credentials are valid
   
       		if( $user->user_level >= 8 ) { // User is an administrator
       			print "user.usergroup.id = 2\n";
       			print "user.usergroup.can_login = 1\n";
       			print "user.usergroup.is_admin = 1\n";
       			print "user.usergroup.mark_as_guest = 0\n";
       			print "user.usergroup.post_delay = 0\n";
       			print "user.usergroup.allow_pm = 1\n";
       			print "user.usergroup.allow_room_create = 1\n";
       			print "user.usergroup.idle_kick = 0\n";
       			print "user.usergroup.can_kick = 1\n";
       			print "user.usergroup.can_grant = 1\n";
       			print "user.usergroup.can_cloack = 1\n";
       			print "user.usergroup.can_see_cloak = 1\n";
       			print "user.usergroup.can_ban = 1\n";
       			print "user.usergroup.can_enable_moderation = 1\n";
       			print "user.usergroup.can_system_speak = 1\n";
       			print "user.usergroup.can_silence = 1\n";
       			print "user.usergroup.allow_bbcode = 1\n";
       			print "user.usergroup.max_msg_length = 2048\n";
       			print "user.usergroup.filter_shout = 1\n";
       			print "user.usergroup.filter_word_replace = 0\n";
       			print "user.usergroup.can_launch_websites = 1\n";
       			print "user.uid = {$user->ID}\n"; 
   
       		} else { // non-admin but credentials are valid
       			print "user.usergroup.id = 1\n";
       			print "user.usergroup.can_login = 1\n";
       			print "user.usergroup.is_admin = 0\n";
       			print "user.usergroup.mark_as_guest = 0\n";
       			print "user.uid = {$user->ID}\n"; 
   
       		}
   
       	} else if( !$login && !$user && get_option( 'addonchat_enable_guest' ) == 'yes' ) {
       		// Login guest users if their username is not in the system (prevents the wrong
       		// password with valid username bug)
       		print "user.usergroup.id = 3\n";
       		print "user.usergroup.can_login = 1\n";
       		print "user.usergroup.mark_as_guest = 1\n";
   
       	} else {
       		print_cannot_login();
   
       	}
   
       } else {
       	print_cannot_login();
   
       }
   
       /**
        * Utility function to print data when credentials are not valid.
        *
        */
       function print_cannot_login() {
       	print "user.usergroup.id = 1000\n";
       	print "user.uid = -1\n";
       	print "user.usergroup.can_login = 0\n";
       }
   
       ?>
       ```
   
 * I think its related to this section in particular:
 *     ```
       // Decode the username and password
       	$username = urldecode( $_GET[ 'username' ] );
       	$password = urldecode( $_GET[ 'password' ] );
   
       	// See if it is possible for these credentials to login
       	$login = wp_login( $username, $password );
       	$user = get_userdatabylogin( $username );
       	if( $login ) { // The credentials are valid
       ```
