~Modification installation
Step 1: Modify .htaccess file
This step is for those that installed phpFoX Konsort with the Rewrite mode enabled. With your FTP client or hosts file manager navigate to your phpFoX websites root directory.
Open the file .htaccess. It should look something like this (Note: The example below is not an exact replica of how your .htaccess file will look like, we are mainly focusing on the RewriteCond):
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/file/.*
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/install/.*
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/design/.*
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/plugins/.*
RewriteRule ^index.php(/.*)$ /index.php?do=$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/file/.*
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/install/.*
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/design/.*
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/plugins/.*
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/index.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/robots.txt
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/favicon.ico
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?do=/$1 [L]
To get this plug-in properly working you will have to add the following line of code twice in the .htaccess file above each of the RewriteRule inserts:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/forums/.*
Your .htaccess file would then look like:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/file/.*
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/install/.*
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/design/.*
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/plugins/.*
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/forums/.*
RewriteRule ^index.php(/.*)$ /index.php?do=$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/file/.*
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/install/.*
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/design/.*
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/plugins/.*
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/index.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/robots.txt
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/favicon.ico
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/forums/.*
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?do=/$1 [L]
Step 2: Install vBulletin
Our first step will be to install vBulletin. We can not go into great detail on how to install vBulletin, however you can check out their great documentation here.Before you attempt to install vBulletin there are some factors you will need to take note of:
* When you upload their product it must be placed in a folder and the name of the folder must be forums. This folder must be placed in your phpFoX websites root directory. Proper layout would be: http:///www.yoursite.com/forums/
* The vBulletin tables must be placed in the same database as phpFoX.
* phpFoX should be installed with a database table prefix. By default this prefix is phpfox_. If you did not install phpFoX with a table prefix you will have to install vBulletin with a table prefix.
* This plug-in was not developed to work under a sub-domain environment yet,for that you have to wait for v3. (Example: http://forums.yoursite.com/)
* During the install of vBulletin you will be asked to add an Admin User. This user will shortly be deleted by our integration and replaced with your main phpFoX Admin account.
Step 3: Edit config.php file.
Edit the config.php file in the vbulletin folder and change the name from forums to whatever the vBulletin subfolder is called in the PhpFoX directory.
Step 4: File uploads
Upload the whole vbulletin folder to the phpFoX plugins folder.
Step 5: Importing
Notice: Read this step thoroughly before attempting to import any data.
For those that already have phpFoX running and just installed vBulletin you will have to do the step Import phpFoX Users.
For those that already have vBulletin running and just installed phpFoX you will have to do the step Import vBulletin Users.
Import phpFoX Users
Run the import file through your web browser by entering the URL into your browser address bar (if you have followed our example, type in http://www.domain.com/plugins/vbulletin/install/import.php, naturally substituting 'domain.com' for your web address.)
Import vBulletin Users
Run the import file through your web browser by entering the URL into your browser address bar (if you have followed our example, type in http://www.domain.com/plugins/vbulletin/install/vb_import.php, naturally substituting 'domain.com' for your web address.)
Step 6: Integration and edits
Now lets log into your vBulletin Admin control panel. Note that it will not work to log into your site using the phpFoX login forum. You will have to use the vBulletin login form. (Example: http://www.yoursite.com/forums/index.php). Note that you will need to log into vBulletin with your phpFoX Admin account, which is the same account you log into your phpFoX site.
Follow the next steps below:
Update Forums Cache
Go to: Forums & Moderators >> Forum Manager >> Then edit the forum called Main Category. Save that forum without making any changes.
Update Forums Counters
Go to: Maintenance >> Update Counters Then rebuild the following:
Rebuild Thread Information
and
Rebuild Forum Information
Enable Plug-In System
Go to: vBulletin Options >> vBulletin Options >> Plugin/Hook System
Change the setting:
Enable Plugin/Hook System
To Yes
Importing the plugin
Go to: Plugins & Products >> Manage Products >> Add/Import Product
Look for the block Import Product and then for EITHER upload the XML file from your computer browse for the XML file product-konsort.xml which was part of the package you downloaded from phpFoX. Then click on the import button.
Template edit (Optional)
Go to: Styles & Templates >> Style Manager >> Edit Template (on all your styles) >> Open template header
Remove the part of code between the logo comments.

Install time: 1 minute
Install level: Easy
*******
Reading your instructions above I will have to disagree with your install level of "easy" and install time of 1 minute.
Regardless, I will give this a try.
**EDIT**
Never mind .. @ $300 a 'try' is out of the question.
EDIT AGAIN ***
Upon further investigation $300 does not seem like such an obscene amount for this software. I just wish their list of clients and sites that are running this was more robust.
* Edit part 3 **
Yeah one would need a dedicated server to use ALL the modules that PHPfox offers ( especially the video module). I think the $300 start up costs plus the monthly server fees make this a no go for anyone without the financial means to offset the costs.

can this be used for people wanting to use phpfox? i mean if i am running a vbulletin site, can i install phpfox and integrate that into the forums?
my forums is in root directory http://myforums.com and i want phpfox to be like http://myforums.com/phpfox
great mod by the way :) thanks
Yes it can but vbulletin has to be a sub-directory of phpfox :( it would have to be moved.

Hi, I just finished installing phpfox & VB. I found one small problem. The "Welcome our newest user" at the bottom of the forum still says me, even though other new people have registered. Showing only 1 registered user. Is there a setting I can change or something?
Thanks :)
EDIT: Just to add, people can logon & post without problems. Everything else seems to be ok.
Make sure you have made all edits in the last step.

Thanks for the reply, I tried them all again, but nothing has changed, still only one user.. Me.
Also, I notice that if I view last post right from the forum index, the thread will still be marked as unread unless I access it by going to the forum, then clicking on the thread title.
Edit: it just updated itself after somebody logged in. Seems to be ok now :)

01-15-2009, 08:41 AM
Sorry, ignore the edit above, I spoke too soon.
I have to do those last installation steps again every time somebody new registers otherwise the forum stats won't pick them up, and they will still only be picked up after they next login.
The issues in post #9 (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1712462&postcount=9) remain with every new user & every new post until I rebuild the forum counters & thread informaion.

phpfox2 is in alpha - will this add-on be compatible to this new version, when it's stable ?
No this is only compatible with 1.6.A version for v2 will be made later.
@Anyoldname
Then enable the plugin on forumhome_complete.It should be listed in more info in Readme,
Anyoldname
01-15-2009, 01:11 PM
Brilliant, thanks Ziki! The last registered user now shows. However new posts remain marked unread as new unless you access them by first going to the forum, then clicking the thread title. Looks like a cookies problem, but I can't figure out what it could be.
Edit: Although the latest user is showing correctly, the counter still shows only 4 registered members, when there are now 7.
Well you can replace the entire content of that plugins with this (from the 2.0.3 version) but it is deprecated code but should fix the problem:
$totalQuery = mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(*) AS count FROM `". App::getT('user') ."`");
$totalFetch = mysql_fetch_array($totalQuery);
$numbermembers = $totalFetch['count'];
$userQuery = mysql_query("SELECT `user`,`id` FROM `". App::getT('user') ."` ORDER BY `signup` DESC");
$userFetch = mysql_fetch_array($userQuery);
$newusername = $userFetch['user'];
$newuserid = $userFetch['id'];
$oSrvLog = &App::getModuleService('Log', 'Log');
$aItem = $oSrvLog->getSiteStat();
$numberregistered = $aItem['online_member'];
$numberguest = ($aItem['online_all']-$aItem['online_member']);
$totalonline = $aItem['online_all'];
Btw what phpfox version are you using?
Anyoldname
01-16-2009, 01:03 PM

Go to vBulletin Admincp - > Plugins and Products -> Plugin Manager and find the plugin I told you to enable,click edit and paste it there.

Hello,
I'm about to integrate this and want to be sure I understand correctly:
Step 2 says to install vBulletin in yourwebsite.com/forums (which I've done), but then Step 4 says, "Upload the whole vbulletin folder to the phpFoX plugins folder."
Does this mean to upload the original vBulletin source files from my computer, or to "move" the vbulletin folder from the yourwebsite.com/forums directory to the phpfox plugins folder?
Thanks!
Anyoldname
01-19-2009, 06:03 PM
You upload the vbulletin files to the /forums folder on your server and upload the vbulletin integration files from here to the phpfox plugins folder.
TonyMF
01-19-2009, 09:16 PM
Thank you Ziki for this mod! It's up and working on my board here (http://talkgamer.com/forums/).
The only minor nuisance I have is some of the text on the pagebg areas being white against a white background. I've checked the style option settings in vBulletin and it doesn't update. I think it's being overwritten by phpFoX. The other is when you accidentally use the vB login box it's sometimes quirky for me staying logged in.
Other than that, A+ mate. :up:

I've got a custom theme installed on my phpfox site (not just a theme you can switch to, but hard-coded), so my header and footer is off.
Where is vBulletin pulling the CSS, footer, header, etc. from with this integration?
Anyoldname
01-20-2009, 08:08 AM
Where is vBulletin pulling the CSS, footer, header, etc. from with this integration?
Admin cp >> Style manager >> Edit templates >> Your phpfox style header & footer.
Is anyone else using this with phpfox 2.1.6? And are your forums & posts being marked read if you read them from the https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2009/01/13.gif button?
This is my only bug now, unless I follow the path completely thru the forum, then the thread, it remains marked unread.
I also have the same login quirk as you Tony. I wonder if it would be better to just remove the login form from VB so that users must login from the phpfox index?

I have your older version of phpfox 1.6.20 and vbulletin integration. I want to upgrade to the new version of the integration. Do I uninstall the the plug-in from vbulletin admin? What about the phpfox side? and then install the new integration plug-in?
I have some questions:
1. I have some forum that are only availabe to admins, when admins opens a new topic in that admin only forum section, the new forum topic shows up on phpfox side to everyone. So then if a non-admin user clicks on the new forum topic from phpfox (NEW FORUM TOPICS) they get an message that says that they don't have access to this topic. How do I remove non-admins to view latest topics that are posted in admin only section of the forum?
2. When I delete a user from phpfox side, my users don't get deleted in vbulletin. Do I have to delete them manually?
3. I am using joomla for CMS and I want users to be able to login from anywhere in the site. Vbulletin, phpfox, joomla, and other static pages. I want to use this mod (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=173698) and place it on top of all pages on my site. Is there a better way? What can I do to allow users to be able to login on top of any page on my site?
Thanks a lot already.
There is a guide to for upgrades in the readme.
1. http://forums.phpfox.com/showthread.php?t=25585
2.Yes
3.Well any login mod would have to be synced with this.

Nice mod, but got a little problem:
just have an runnig vb, fox is an new install. When i tried to integrate the user of my vb into fox, your script says: ok
but the old Admin-User ( from the install of phpfox) is away and all Admins and Mods could not sign on to php-fox.
They all get following message after login:
Sorry! This area is for official members only. Please login or signup.
Even there is no more an admin-account of php-fox, i dont´t know how to solve?
Go to your phpmyadmin -> phpfox_user -> edit the user you want to be admin and set type to 0.
PeterXP
04-13-2009, 07:47 AM
thanks, but this doesn´t work.
Changed Type to 0---> typed in Name and password in in phpfox-Login--Mask ----> the bulletin Software tells me: Thanks for login in, Administrator ---> then i will redirected to the fox-site which tells me :Sorry! This area is for official members only. Please login or signup..
Maybe you have another Idea?
Please check if the databases are synced correctly,if there are the same users in vB and fox as well.
PeterXP
04-13-2009, 09:18 AM
Please check if the databases are synced correctly,if there are the same users in vB and fox as well.
yep...done in the last hour.... all Users are completely the same.. 2480 Users in VB-table, 2480 Users in phpfox Table, even aditional informations like date of Birth, etc. are the same.
i think there is another problem,too.
I logged out of the vb, cleanded Local Cache, Cookies, etc. of my browser and go to the php-Fox installation. Without logging in ( in forum, because in phpfox i didn?t came in), i see in the Archive the Administrative Forums of my vb and even can read them via the archive of php-fox.
When i click onto " view full version:link", then it will be denied to me, but the Archive has the whole Content of the administrative Forums of the vb and is readable for everybody who clicks onto archive. ( just even testet with a good, trustfull friend via ICQ).
Maybe there is more than one problem that i have?
Sorry, my head goes round, because i tried the last 10 Hours the integration in the new php-fox. the announced offlne-Time for Board and Domain was 5 Hours und at this time my users mailed more about 200 most angry Mails.....
Is there a possibility to solve this Problem without uninstall phpfox and vb-integration and searching for another cms?
And what phpfox version is it?
PeterXP
04-13-2009, 12:14 PM
phpfox version 1.6.21
vBulletin 3.8.2
Hm,try posting the exact problem into the original thread and I will take a look at it.
PeterXP
04-13-2009, 05:46 PM
Thanks, but i don´t think, that there is a problem with phpfox, because in Stand-Alone-Operation ( without vb-integration) it works fine. To keep my Community runnig, i uninstalled php-fox and even the vb-integration.
Even therefore phpfox offers a 30 Day Money Back Guarantee and I just bought another Script called Handshakes. I hope, the integration of my vb-users will be better than this script here.
Sure, it is not a PHPfox-Problem, but i bought that phpfox-script to integrate a vbulletin into an cms to get something like an common portal with Chat, Blog, Flirtline, etc. Even this script here ( the integration-script) seems to be the only way to integrate a vb to this cms and it not works for me, i decided to try out other scripts with the needed functionality.
Many thanks for the trying of support this integration-script,
sincerly,
PeterXP
ps: could anyone delete the mark " downloaded" for this mod?

Ziki,
I installed facebook connect which actually doesn't interfere with vbulletin or facebook. But it doesn't create the facebook users for phpfox. Only in vbulletin.
I need help fixing this. I noticed you asked that we come to you for any plugins that use or affect the login process.
It's a great plugin. https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=198499
How do I fix this so that the users are created in phpfox as well as vbulletin? Especially because the vbulletin/phpfox integration plugin uses vbulletin to authenticate.

Have done this before without any problems. This time tho on Godady servers. VBulletin 3.8.5 Phpfox 1.6.21 and ZIkis Plugin 2.5.1
This is the error it shows:
Database error in vBulletin :
Invalid SQL:

Will this work with vbulletin 4.0?

Ziki,
I installed facebook connect which actually doesn't interfere with vbulletin or facebook. But it doesn't create the facebook users for phpfox. Only in vbulletin.
I need help fixing this. I noticed you asked that we come to you for any plugins that use or affect the login process.
It's a great plugin. https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=198499
How do I fix this so that the users are created in phpfox as well as vbulletin? Especially because the vbulletin/phpfox integration plugin uses vbulletin to authenticate.

@Mykal...
Are you having any problems with Facebook Connect?
I was using it an had a hard time with it as it was real buggy...
I just switched to YAFB Yet Another Facebook Bridge and wow is it sooooo much better.
You can actually INVITE your facebook friends right from the USER CP!!!
Check it out I am sure you will be glad you did!
EDIT:
By the way if you are running 3.8.x you can still use the 4.0 Version of YAFB as it works on both 4.0 and 3.8.x

Does this mod make sense to add to VB4? I think VB4 accomplishes everything that phpfox does and more. You'll have a lot of redundancy.

That would actually be neat if someone had the time to do this..
Go over what features and abilities that PHPFox has:
VS.
vBulletin 4.2x
See if it does make sense or not for everyone...
Thanks!

I haven't seen the ability to customize profiles like PHP Fox has. They have the ability to change almost every part of the page to a different color of background picture, and for people to pick which modules they want on their profile page, and to be able to move the modules around. If their is a Vb mod for that I'd like to know.

When I try to login through the forums I get the following Firefox error:
Actually the same thing happens when I login through phpFox.
I'm seeing this same error and though a link was provided to solve this in this thread, there seems to be no access to the info at the link. Was this problem ever solved?

Dunno if you solved this or not, but I would guess that you are installing with the short URL enabled tru Phpfox. Saw the same issue and resolved it by turning off short url's until I completed that step.

Depending on what you are looking for in the way of a front end for Vb forums, Phpfox does make sense for some applications. The CMS it has is much easier to work with than the VB4 suite version of CMS and it does give you the ability of having way better member pages.
There is a plugin/product out there for the latest versions of both VB and phpfox , ($40), but it has some issues. Install instructions are pretty inaccurate and sketchy with it and due to some errors will only work with short URL re-write enabled on your server and a REAL lot of tweaking.
A free version should be out before too long.

Got an answer from a phpfox coder on this one. If you disable Gzip compression in the Vbulletin AdminCP options it fixes the problem.
Thanks Komplex! :)
