[wp-hackers] problem with wp_signon

Thanks for your reply. Tried that and didn't work. I just found myself it's 
a bug in is_user_logged_in().

Nicest work around I found is to call set_current_user() just after the 
wp_signon(), of course if the user was really logged in. Answer is here: 
http://blog.rhysgoodwin.com/programming/wordpress-wp_signon-current_user-is-not-populated/.

I guess it's time for the Wordpress team to fix that bug as it took me hours 
and hours to figure this out. Didn't expect this type of bug in Wordpress.

Guys,  please fix.

I think the cookies are not set on the first load - so you'd have to
redirect them in order for WordPress to detect that the user is actually
logged-in.

I could be wrong though, so if someone else has a clue...
