When our users log in to the wordpress site using Explorer, they are automatically logged into the Simple-Press forum.  That doesn’t happen in Firefox or Chrome.  Is there a fix to that?  Thanks!

not sure what you mean…  simple press has nothing to do with logging in… that is all WP…  you dont log into simple press – you only log into wp…

When you log into WP on Chrome or Firefox and go to the Simple Press forum, the message says: ” The requested group does not exist or you do not have permission to view it” You have to click the log in bottom on the top right and log in again then all the forums open up. When you log into WP on Explorer, the forums are visible without having to log in again.

sounds perhaps that you are caching pages?  you cannot cache the forum page (its dynamic)…

but again, you do not log in to simple press – only wp…

I’m sorry I don’t know what you mean. To get to the forum from our WP site, users have to log in and then click a link to take them the simple press forum. If they’re using Explorer, they don’t have to log in again and the button on the top right of the screen on the simple press page says ‘log out’. If users are on Firefox and Chrome, when they click the link to go the forum, the button says ‘log in’. I’ve tried clearing caches on all the browsers and get the same result. Thanks for the help. We’ll keep exploring for solutions.

Fixed it! The link from WP to the simple press forum was going to a dev. page. For some reason Explorer didn’t care but Firefox and Chrome did. When we changed it to a simple http: link, everything worked. Thanks again for your help!!
