Is Mr Papa about today? He has done some work on my site to resolve the above issue but something was lost in translation. I sent him a PM this morning but I haven't had a reply yet.

Here is the message I sent him after he made the changes...

"It's not quite right I'm afraid.

DAP is used to protect paid for content on the site and not for logging in WP users to the forum. I think DAP is supposed to sync with WP but I've had problems with that in the past.The reason I didn't give you an email address and password instead of a user name and password is that currently forum users need to log in to WP (user name and password) to use the forum and log in to DAP (email address and password) for the protected content. Of course in an ideal world there would just bee one login for both but I haven't been able to resolve the issues with DAP syncing with WP.

The changes you have made now mean that forum users are being redirected to the DAP login form so won't be able to log in to the forum and new registrants are being directed to a redundant page.

I thought I asked, and maybe I didn't make myself clear, for the WP login and registration forms to be moved to courtesy of the plugin you mentioned in order to deter brute force logins and the forum login and registration links to reflect the changes. Are you able to do this?

I hope I haven't confused the issue any more!"

The problem that I have is that DAP and WP users don't seem to by in sync on my site. I know they are supposed to, but they aren't. Just to make sure, I've just logged in to DAP via the log in button which you have edited on the forum. I was logged successfully in to DAP but when I switched back to the forum, I wasn't logged in to the forum. I had to log in to WP separately before I was logged in to the forum.

It's a situation which has driven both me and many of my users mad over the last couple of years. There's constantly confusion which login form to use for which part of the site but I haven't had a clue how to resolve the issue so it has remained a problem.

Are you interested in giving me a price for sorting the problem out so that both DAP and WP are in sync?

If not, then here's what I need.

• The WP login and register URLs need to be moved to thwart brute force log ins
• The forum log in button needs to reflect the changed URL
• The forum register button needs to reflect the changed URL

Let me know if you need more information.

Thanks,

Paul

No, I don't have a preference. Anything will do providing that they differ from the normal WP log in and register URLs.

When you set it up will you be able to redirect those who log in and those who register back to the forum rather than to the WP profile page?
