ProxyConnect 1.8 has been released.
This release changes the way we hook into signin and signout urls, with the intended side-effect of improving support for reliably logging users out of their local and remote sessions when they click "Sign Out".
Also included is a new way to integrate with Wordpress using our new Remote Integration Managers. Integrating with Wordpress is now a simple 2 step process.
Enjoy this release and be sure to report any bugs you find!

Possible reasons:
* Database was not created. Did you enable ProxyConnect properly, through the Plugins screen?
* Does your database user have write permissions to the GDN_UserAuthentication* tables?
ProxyConnect is definetely 'properly enabled' and as I'm on localhost, I guess permissions shouldn't be problematic (user role: admin).

My vanilla installation is at 'http://my-machine/dbtest/community/', when I try to sign in, vanilla keeps sending me to 'http://my-machine/dbtest/community/dbtest/community/entry/signin?Target=discussions' which of course brings up a 'Page not found' error. The only possibility to sign in again is via 'entry/password'.

Regardless of settings (manual / auto), with proper values filled in, the 'Apply for Membership' link doesn't redirect to the WP registration URL as specified.

0 • Off Topic Insightful Awesome LOL •I have these conditions:
WordPress script on http://mysite.com/wp/ but got live in http://mysite.com/
and I install Vanilla on http://mysite.com/forum/
When I login to WordPress and view the forum and login with the same credentials, it cannot login as admin, so I can not access the Vanilla Dashboard. But still be able to login as member.
When I logout, I get redirected to WordPress login form, not to the forum page. Now, everytime I login to forum via forum 'Sign in' link, I get login automatically without providing password.
I've curious and tell my friend in another place to click the 'Sign in' link forum, and he got logged in automatically with my last member account without providing password too, even he can change the profile picture. Weird.
I think this is a big security issue and you should fix it as soon as posibble.

0 • Off Topic Insightful Awesome LOL •you are being logged in automatically because cookies have not expired or have been not been cleared.
It is NOT a security problem except at public terminals in say Libraries, Universities and Schools when you should exit the browser rather than just log out, even rebooting the machine if necessary.
You can always login to the admin interface (avoiding proxy authentication) via
http://example.com/yourforum/entry/password
but only to accounts e.g. the original admin account i.e. id/1 that have been setup explicitly with accounts in Vanilla rather than WordPress.

0 • Off Topic Insightful Awesome LOL •I have a WordPress 3.0.1 installation and I've created a brand new install of Vanilla 2.0.10 and installed ProxyConnect 1.8 with Manual configuration (since the WordPress auto config still gives me errors). At the very least, can someone tell me why my WordPress 3.0.1 won't allow ProxyConnectAutoconfigure? The only HTTP header that I'm seeing from the ProxyConnect WordPress plugin is:
X-ProxyConnect-Enabled: yesNo other ProxyConnect HTTP headers are displayed. This implies to me that WordPress isn't set up for autoconfigure.
Moving on...
Besides that issue, how is it possible that I can set up the brand new Vanilla install and log in as the admin on WordPress, then use the SyncScreen to link my WordPress admin account to my Vanilla admin account (upon the first Vanilla login)......and then create a brand new user in WordPress using a different email address, clear my cookies, clear my cache, restart my browser and log in to WordPress as that new user and go to Vanilla only to see I'm logged in as the Vanilla admin?? (i.e. the last user that was logged in)
I've reinstalled Vanilla twice now, from scratch, and I get the same result every time. I don't understand how Vanilla can keep logging me in as the admin (or last logged-in user) when I'm doing everything in my power to clear my cookies/cache/history and log in as a new WordPress user. Even if I create additional WordPress users, they all log into Vanilla as the last Vanilla user to log in (the admin account in this case). I just can't get ProxyConnect to create a new Vanilla user no matter what I do.
Please help.
