I’ve found out the problem!
It has nothing to do with cookies or wordpress 2.5, but with the sql connection in the api.

In smf_api_1.1.php, in line 166 we should change:
@mysql_connect($db_server, $db_user, $db_passwd)

to:
@mysql_connect($db_server, $db_user, $db_passwd, true)

This will prevent the SMF bridge from hogging the sql connection, thus allowing for wordpress to keep on running as usual

Ha! I’ve found the problem (for my case, at least)!

Well gumfi claims that the plugin works with 2.5.1, but for me, once I activate it, I get kicked out of the site, and cannot login until I delete the plugin files.

Anyone else had this sort of problem?

I’m using it (here) on WP 2.3.3 with SMF 1.1.4. I’ve modified it a bit so users can sync with their existing forum account, even though their WP accounts were new.

I’ve upgraded the site (on a dev environment) to WP 2.5.1 and SMF 1.1.5 and it broke (because of WP 2.5.1).

I hope something will turn up from here.
