The bava may be in and out over the next day or two as I upgrade my own WPMu version to the 2.7 trunk (pre-beta!) and integrate it with BuddyPress and bbPress (the last piece of which has consistently proven a major pain in the ass when it comes to cookies). Nonetheless, I am getting really close—you can see the beginnings of the integration between WPMu and BuddyPress here. I am still bothering with bbPress because it has been integrated with BuddyPress groups providing instant, integrated forums on the fly, which I like in theory a lot.
So, anyway, great pâté, but I got motor if I’m gonna make this funeral.
I have everything thing working, but I am having a botch of time getting the cookies to login users to both. Damn it, it’s been two days now and I can’t get an answer. I kind of hate bbPress as much as I appreciate it, the integration with WPMu has been anything but easy no matter when I tried.
I actually got the integration between WPMu and bbPress working finally.
Seems like we need to add another line in the wp-config:
define('COOKIEHASH', 'Your_cookie_hash_here' );
I try and explain it here (though not very well),

Sam Bauers give me the hint here:

I’d be interested to hear if this works for you.
Now all I need to do is get the forums working in the BuddyPress Groups and then I’ll write the whole thing up. Here’s to hoping.
