    I installed WordPress 2.7.1 and bbPress 0.9 on my local server and trying setting up integration between them by using the bbPress plugin http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/freshly-baked-cookies/ so that bbPress can do the talking with WP 2.7.1
    Now when I did the integration, I am having an issue with both WP & bbPress. Don't really know whats causing it, so posting it on both forums.

    When I login & logout using WP, it reflects on bbPress very well.
    Similarly when I login & logout using bbPress, it reflects on WP very well too.
    but not when I login using one and try to logout using another. What I found is that WP might reflect that it is logged out but if I access the URL /wp-admin/ , m already logged in until I clear the cookie.

    Any idea whats wrong with the cookie?
    Also any idea on how to redirect login on both the scripts to a custom page where I will have different stuff and will use only that thing to login & logout which should be reflected site wide. Thanks in advance!

    Also I lost control of bbPress dashboard. It doesn't appear anymore with the profile page link. When I try to access it by typing /bb-admin/ then it will redirect me to the forum's main page.

    One more thing. When I login using bbPress, it reflects on WP meta widget but when I try to access WP dashboard it asks for login information. That means I am not logged in. I think the WP is not checking the cookie correctly or bbPress is not setting cookie the right way.

    Meanwhile I will try a WP plugin to let it communicate with bbPress instead of using a bbPress plugin as above.
