[wp-testers] logout/signon bug?

[Emiliano Jankowski]

The code I sent is just a test code, the real plugin is much more
complicate, but yes, I don't need to just show user info, I need to log out
any logged user, and then log in a new one and show some info.

So I found a solution, but again, I don't know if it is a bug or just it
works like that. The solution is to use the wp_set_current_user function,
like

$user_obj = wp_signon($user_data, false);
wp_set_current_user($user_obj->ID);


Thanks
