Hoping y’all can help me with a little issue here…

I’ve set up [WP Discourse](https://github.com/discourse/wp-discourse) and Discourse, and everything looks good.

However, I had a customer sign up (on the WordPress side of things) before Discourse was connected, and that user was NOT created simultaneously in Discourse.

**When this user tries to visit the forums, he is redirected to my primary domain with a long SSO query string appended to the URL.**

(In other words, it doesn’t work.)

I’ve chosen to **bypass email verification** to remove that potential obstacle, so that’s not the issue here.

I’ve also selected **sync user data** in the [WP Discourse](https://github.com/discourse/wp-discourse) Plugin in hopes that this might resolve the issue, but it did not.

I feel like I might be able to manually resolve this if I can create a user inside Discourse, but I can’t see a way to do that based on the way my forums are currently set up.

So what can I do? If possible, I would prefer not to tell this user to cancel their payment and then do the whole thing over again…

Thank you for any insight you can provide!
