Hi there

This is now the third forum plugin I have tried and it looks nice and simple and neat.

So far I have one big problem.

1. When I try and login using the forum login, the page just refreshes and does not log me in, it still says welcome guest.
2. Even if I login to wordpress in the backend and then go to the forum, it still sees me as guest.
3.I have also noticed that the wordpress admin bar that used to appear when I was logged in and viewing the frontend is also missing.
4. This happens for all users
5. I do have User-role-editor plugin installed, but even with the plugin disabled, I get the same result.

Please help
Thanks

Same here too and a weekend of Googling this issue has not turned up anything. For me I can only get the user login working on IE. Safari, Chrome and Firefox all rout back to the 'Welcome Guest' login screen without any visible login errors (like Username and/or Password is incorrect). I can login to the dashboard of my wordpress site via Safari, Chrome snd of course IE. So to me this rules out a local and also theme issue, or compatibility issue. Over the weekend just gone, I tried EVERYTHING to get this working: Cleared out ALL History in all browsers, both public and private, including active logins. Cleared ALL caching on all browsers. Reset browsers back to default. Uninstalled Mingle Forums plugin and then reinstalled. Uninstalled any redirection plugins (I had a couple that redirected to a customized login screen when User Registers). Still no luck getting access or registered within the forums over these three browsers. I also gave different OS platforms a go; OSX Mountain Lion & W7. Still no joy. I've asked around some of my web dev mates who are also complexed as to what is causing the issue. There is a known bug with Firefox, where you cannot access the dashboard for Wordpress, not since Firefox 3.5. No info found on why that is :( I'd be interested to hear if anyone else has gone to any other extremes and/or tried anything different to what I already have. Maybe belting out a hearty Yodel once clicking the Login button might do it... but I haven't tried that, yet...

While Mingle forums looks great and, well functions awesomely once you are able to login, im seriously considering dropping it due to this issue...
