Yea well that's why it's still not installed on any of my sites lol. My main reasons is I just hate upgrading, but when a stable release is out I sure as hell upgrade ;) Thanks for the response :)

On this line my theme stops working:

PHP Code:


		
			
<h3 id="comments">Comments:</h3>
<ol class="commentlist">
<?php
foreach ($vbridge[replies] as $reply) {
?>
[B]<li class="<?php echo $oddcomment; ?>" id="comment-[/B]<?php comment_ID() ?>">

HTML output:

HTML Code:

<h3 id="comments">Comments:</h3>

<ol class="commentlist">



<li class="" id="comment-">

I would highly appreciate any feedback about this :) Last bug before going to public :)

Well, the one thing I see is:

Code:

<li class="<?php echo $oddcomment; ?>" id="comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>">

Should probably be:

Code:

<li class="<?php echo $oddcomment; ?>" id="comment-<?php echo comment_ID() ?>">

But cannot be sure because I am not positive on what you mean by "My theme stops working"..

Thanks! Will try this as soon as I am at home. I meant that the layout get broken because the php code stops working there.

edit: doesn't work

Not sure why you are calling echo comment_ID(), or $oddcomment.. Those are not needed. Vbulletin is taking over the comments, not accentuating them.

?? Its (the code) from your readme file...

My bad.. You have only shown me the partial code, would need to see everything you did.

I have the following hacks installed:

Custom Status Icons Per Forum
vBSEO
vBSEO :: Sitemap Generator
Welcome Headers

Can you please help me out? I saw another guy on page 49 had the same problem, but the solution you gave him didn't work for me.

Cheers

My forum is on http://www.webhostingtalk.co.za & WP on http://www.webhostingtalk.co.za/blog

What am I doing wrong?

Can you have it setup like

blog.yoursite.com
forums.yoursite.com

?

Hi,

Great mod....thank you!!!

Everything is working perfectly except my comments from the forum are not showing in wordpress. I made the template changes per your instructions. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I have included the modified template files for reference.

Thank you,

Brian

My forum is installed http://www.webhostingtalk.co.za & Wordpress on http://www.webhostingtalk.co.za/blog/ - both use the save DB.

Hello Jafo! :)

Just a quick questioned i've installed this mod but whenever another admin clicks on site admin it forwards them to my forums url. I'm an admin on my site and it works perfectly fine for me when i click on site admin.

Thanks,
Tom

Hellow every body,
I install this bridge and work good but I have two problems, I will talk about one now because I need asolution for it nowadays.

The first problem that this bridge dont work with Arabic usernames,
I mean when the username in English, the user login at wordprss and be one of wordpress useres. but when username in Arabic its not working and the user not logged in at wordpress.
That because I let registeration in Arabic names. so I need to fix this problem

any idea?

Don't allow arabic characters, that should fix it.

Is there any way around this?

I was thinking of getting vbSEO - anyone had any compatability issues with this plugin and vbseo, or has it been working fine?

Thanks

I've been using this successfully for 2 weeks now, but today I went to my site to find this:

Quote:

Fatal error: Undefined class name 'vbulletinhook' in /home/videknet/public_html/forums/includes/class_bbcode.php on line 2405

What happened?? And how to I fix it??

EDIT: Disabled it, and edited the VBbridge call out of my themes index and the site (stand-a-lone) works fine a again.

This is a great addon, thanx :)

I have some questions though, as I couldn't find the answers to them in the 29 pages worth of stuff on this particular thread.

* How do I map my Blog categories with my Forum categories?
* If a user gets promoted to a new user group in vBulletin, does it automatically change his privilege in Wordpress as well?

I've been using the bridge for quite some time without an issue.

Good work!

There is one thing I'd like to do but I have read anything on how to do it.

I would like to embed the forums into wordpress. Something like I've seen phpbb embedded into PostNuke and others.

Is there a way to embed vB into WP pages?

Thanks!

Ok I need help again. Now my posts dont transfer to my forum cause the bridge is disabled. How do I resolve that error, what happened?? If I can still use this bridge, I need to :erm:

How did you disable the bridge?

I disabled the product and took out the template edits. Everytime I re-install now I get that fatal error listed above.

Does this work with wordpress in one subdomain and vb in a different subdomain?

You may want to edit the vbbridge.php file where it says:

Code:

## If you get errors relating to the class 'vBulletinHook' not found, uncomment next line.

# define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true);

Has anyone got this to work?

I'd love to see if this works for us but this thread is scary. I'm going to have to hire someone to do this for me and I don't want them stumbling around with trial and error. Also please excuse my low tech-ness but I'm not quite sure what the bridge DOES. I don't much care about WP bloggers being able to comment. I want people to join if they want to discuss an entry which is why I want it tied to a forum. I'm most interested in being able to create tags and categories so people can read past entries by subject matter.

Also, does the WP theme have to be duplicated to match the forum skin? I have two active but very different skins and I'm not sure how it would work if we had to pick one skin.

Sorry for the questions, I've never worked with Word press before and I'm not sure how this works.

This has worked great for my news system

What it does, is give forum users an account on wordpress (you can determine which group you want to take on which role). Comments can be handled either by wordpress or by the forum, whichever you want. If you want it to be on the forums (like me) it will automatically post a thread, to which your users can reply.

I love this plugin as it allows me to use all the great features of the WP posting tool like pinging other sites, category and tag archives etc. - while I can still use vBulletin to handle discussions and comments. I used vbExternal before, but this is much more stable in regard to converting HTML -> BBcode

Fraik, I sent you a message. By the way your skin and forum design is impressive!

May be a dumb question but do vb and wp have to be in the same database? If not, what are the settings to make it read from the other db?

How do I get the images to show up in the forum posts?

All I see is the HTML code for it, do I have to allow HTML in the forum?

the php files and the documentation both need line feed conversions :)

I'm a little bit a of newb, but what do you mean by line feed conversions?

Installed, however:

When my users view a blog post and click on comments, it does not take them to the forum in which the article was posted to... if comments are on, it uses WP commenting. If comments are off it there is no option to comment at all.

Are there changes that have to be made to get that feature to work? I felt that was the best benefit of this mod. I don't want people to be able to comment unless they are a member of the forums. I've seen it work on jeffsrecipes.com... it is not working that way for me.

Blog addy

[S]Second, when my members go to the blog, it auto adds them as a user. Is it supposed to do that? [/S] *DUH, read the ReadME

Jafo can you please work out some method to have pagination with the comments? I'm getting some pages with like 200-1000 comments that are killing my server. Anything would be appreciated :)

PhenomLeader, did you follow the instructions for replacing the Wordpress replies code with the one that directs it to a vB topic? I know I had to do that anyway

Im pretty sure its somewhere in the readme file.

I had a coder install this for me... I will ask him to check that. Thanks. I did ask the original coder but got no response.
