   I upgraded to WordPress 2.6 without adding the AUTH_KEY, SECURE_AUTH_KEY, and LOGGED_IN_KEY. I went back and added them to the wp-config.php file. It doesn't seem to have any affect. Just wondering if someone knew what else I need to do to get them to take effect? Thanks!

   You won't notice any effect. It's to foil hack attempts among other things.

   Thanks Samboll. I understand I won't see any effect. But I'm running a membership site with WordPress housed within amember. Amember is not syncing with WordPress because of the auth_key, secure_auth_key and logged_in_key . I already added the info to amember, so I just want to make sure there's nothing else I need to do with auth_key, secure_auth_key and logged_in_key besides just adding them to wp-config? I'm going to submit to amember too, but their site is down...so any help is appreciated.

   You don't need to do anything else now that you have added them to your config (except maybe clear any old cookies.)

   So, am I supposed to enter the same phrase for all three lines, or different ones?

   Also, totally unrelated..on this site, when I try to view my profile, I get "user not found". So I can't set my password to something I can remember! frustrating.

   Think I found the answer to my first question. The example in the detailed instructions indicates three different random strings: http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php
