Single sign on for wordpress & membership software
Aloha Vanilla members!
I have been working on a membership site with wordpress. A key to this site is the forums, which before I was using simple press. After I saw there was a vanilla plug in I immediately hopped on as I prefer the look and feel of Vanilla forums.
My question is, using either magic members or wishlist members I would like to have my forum connect with my wordpress site with single sign on. Beyond that I am hoping that through user roles I can limit certain categories on the forum to those membership types.
for example, A members can access category A forums and B members can access category B forums but only both of them if they sign up for both.
Any idea about how one would go about doing this? Thanks to anyone who could help!

We are interested in this as well. Any feedback out there?
Hey guys,
While vanilla forums are still my favorite. I've decided to switch to buddypress for my project. The user integration is seamless and using the buddyboss theme just makes everything work so well. No hacking user roles required. I would consider switching back to vanilla for other projects in the future.
