Wordpress with VanillaForums Single Sign On

Hello,
I want to connect my Wordpress with VanillaForums. I'm using Wordpress 3.8 with the official Vanilla Forums Plugin and VanillaForums 2.0.18.10 with JSConnect 1.0.3b. I put all the urls like sign in and stuff like that into JSConnect. If I register through Wordpress I can only login in Wordpress and not in Vanilla and vice versa. If I try to login there is a "Connecting.." showing up all the time.
What can I do?

I wonder, are you double post due to the system issue or you purposely do it?
If you are double posting your question won't be answer any quicker might I add.
It's probably due to site issues. Also happened to the user with the bonk error.

There was an error rendering this rich post.
When I created a topic first it showed me an error which is the reason why I tried it again. I didn't realize it already created a topic the first time. I'm sorry.
Do I have to install both systems into the same database?
Thanks for the links. I'll read through them.
Sorry for posting again! If I use the VanillaForums Plugin will the user be synced? If I register at wordpress can I login at Vanilla with that account or do I have to create another one for Vanilla? I'm kind of confused.
Anyone? Please?
I think you are looking for something like this http://forum.strukts.com, where users register and sign in both wordpress and vanilla.
Exactly. And how can I achieve this?
Oh, really? This forum is really no help.
@holybrowncow, here is some info
Yes, but you need to create the same roles in your wordpres
Yes, but you need to create the same roles, so Vanilla can populate this info
Please see this article for SSO and WordPress on our blog:

I already created the same roles in Vanilla; no change at all.
@holybrowncow it will work only on new users created, not existing accounts.
Still doesn't work. I also read, that on Wordpress 3.8 it doesn't work anymore. Maybe Vanilla should update their plugin.
Please, guys? Otherwise I have to go for ModX with Discussion 2, even if I want to use VanillaForums.
