WordPress doesn't realise I'm logged in after I've given it its own directory

    I’ve followed the procedure outlined in the Codex under “Giving WordPress Its Own Directory”.

    From the user’s point of view everything’s largely working fine. From my point of view as a logged-in user, it’s not working fine. I can access WordPress admin as usual, but when it comes to actually browsing the site, I am effectively browsing the site as a logged-out user, because WordPress doesn’t seem to realise that I’m actually logged in.

    So when maintenance mode is switched on, I get locked out of the site itself (I can still access the admin back-end, no problem). On every page, I have “edit post” links for logged-in users… now I can’t see them. Et cetera.

    As this is is obviously quite a serious issue, any clues as to how I might resolve this?

    Hmm, seems to have fixed itself after a short period. (The best kind of problems. :P) Never mind!

    I think I’m having the same problem … let’s hope I get the same solution !
    Do you mean that you lose the admin toolbar, even though the checkbox is checked in your profile ?

    Well, I lost all logged-in functionality: no admin bar, no “edit post” links, etc. – basically it was as though I wasn’t logged in at all. I’m guessing it was just a temporary issue caused by caching or something along those lines.
