    I have an intranet site that has a link to my wp-members protected site. I want to be able to bypass login to the protected site from these links and would like to pass through the username and password for the generic account I setup in WP. Is this possible? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    To be a bit more concise, I want to authenticate / set WP cookies programmatically. Ideally, the link on the intranet site would be to a php script that would contain the username and password and call functions to authenticate and set cookies, then redirect to the site homepage. Possible?

    While that would not typically be a very secure process, you can set the user as logged in using the wp_set_current_user() function. You just need to ID (db primary key) of the user – you don’t need the username and password.
