Changing password on WaniKani does not invalidate forum session

I changed my WaniKani password on another computer, while I was logged into the service on this machine. Now, I notice that, although my https://wanikani.com session has been invalidated on this computer (as I expected it to happen), the forum session has not been invalidated, and I can post normally, even though I have not logged in with the new credentials yet.

That would be an issue with the Discourse side, 恧恗悇恆 ?

I found this topic from a few years ago where someone mentioned that error:

And then something about fixing it hereā€¦

ā€¦but considering youā€™re still having the issueā€¦ :thinking:

Thatā€™s all Iā€™ve got :durtle_the_explorer:

Well, you do not change the password via discourse, but by using the WK interface. So perhaps this patch has no effect in this situation :thinking:

I donā€™t even think you can change the password using discourse

Ooo gotcha, yeah I donā€™t think you can, then itā€™s probably an issue between WK ā†’ Discourse

Yeah, I think it is our end that would be responsible to invalidate the forum session. The boards are on a SSO with your WK login. Iā€™ll look into this.
