I am looking to integrate Vbulletin and Wordpress. Is there a way, with this plugin, that I can only allow users that a part of a specific Vbulletin usergroup to access my Wordpress site?

Thanks

Thank you for reaching out.

Please use Allowed User Groups vBSSO option: here you can specify group id that will have the permission to be authenticated via vBSSO connection. Those users group id who are not specified in Allowed User Groups will be authenticated ONLY in vBulletin but not in the connected platforms.

For example:
1. Connect vBSSO WordPress, vBSSO Joomla and vBSSO vBulletin.
2. Fill in these fields:

- Allowed User Groups: 1,2,3,4.
- Allowed WordPress User Groups: 1,2.
- Allowed Joomla User Groups: 3,4.

This will mean that all 4 groups will have a permission to be authenticated in all platforms, but the first and the second - only in WordPress, the third and the fourth - only in Joomla.

I have a new installation of VB 4.2.5 running PHP 7 on localhost. I am getting this error on uploading the xml:
Fatal error: Cannot use $this as parameter in D:\XAMPP2\htdocs\xxxx\forums\vbsso\vbsso.php on line 296
What am I doing wrong?

Thank you for reaching out.

It seems you are using 7.1 PHP version - this version is currently unsupported yet (supported PHP versions -> 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, 7.0).

The following code worked in PHP 7, but will emit compilation error in PHP 7.1

function foo($this) { // Fatal error: Cannot use $this as parameter}...

Please find vBSSO vBulletin details here and PHP error details here.

Thank you,

Hi xeagle,

I have the latest Wordpress used for main page and cms and Vbulletin 3.8.10 for forums & classifieds.

In vbulletin I have 150K members
In Wordpress I have 3000 members, some of these are from previously used vb wp bridge.

Mission:
- I would like to gradually bring all users from vbulletin to wordpress using buddypress
- Stop new posts, new threads, new user registration in vbulletin
- Keep Vbulletin forum just for achieve and for old users to log in to map to wordpress
- Use Wordpress as user registration not vbulletin

Is this possible? Thanks!

Done, thank you. I have successfully installed on the new 7.0 version of XAMPP.
However now I am getting the message

I have tried https and non https. Changed the keys, but still the same error in the log file.

I have searched the comments for a similar error and found you responded to someone else with the same problem. So I enabled DEBUG to get the full error message. Let me know if I should PM it to you or if you have a fix already.
Cheers.

Thank you for details.

Please check out next moment:

- are you using the latest vBSSO versions?
- other requirements - Installed PHP cURL, mCrypt extensions?

and submit a ticket support at https://www.vbsso.com/submit-a-request/ (please attach log
files, links to both sites etc).

We will check the log files and do our best to help you.

On the slave side, is there a way to remove the option to logout (and the heading) once you are logged in? Reason is, I use 2 login systems and would like them to use the other system to log out.

PS I managed to fix the above error :)

Thank you for reaching out and for updates.

Could you please give more details on your request - remove the option to logout (and the heading) - do you mean to remove user name from the heading?

We are waiting for your feedback.
Thank you,
