I've found a temporary fix for the "admin/first user" bug.
The dilemma: I'm working on a project that is requiring a pretty complex setup, and this plugin was a crucial part of it, especially due to the fact that we need to fully support multiple contributors. Unfortunately, we ran into a huge issue during development, the issue being a bug where the author ID would change to 1, no matter who was editing it. Ultimately, it came down to a box on the post editor which allows one to change the current author of the post being edited. This box works fine without the plugin active because it would pull the list of authors from the WP database, but the vB bridge does not push it's users into WP, so WP would still only find the same users in it's database. That means when anyone edited the post and saved it, the author box would default to user #1 (usually 'admin'), because, as I mentioned earlier, it does not "see" any of the vB users. The solution: Make A BACKUP Of Both Files BEFORE You Make ANY Edits! These are core files, and can ruin your Wordpress backend. You Have Been Warned! Open: wp-admin/includes/edit-form-advanced.php Find and Delete/Comment: PHP Code:
Open: wp-admin/includes/edit-page-form.php Find and Delete/Comment: PHP Code:
That's it! I'd love to figure out how to make the plugin disable this box, and will probably try to do so once this project is done, unless the developer beats me to it. One last reminder: Because we made core file edits, there's a strong chance that the changes you've just made will be overwritten in future upgrades. |
Is this working with vB4.0 or not?
|
Does anyone know how to display the authors details / about me (Biography, Location, Interests, Occupation ) in a post?
I have tried various solutions such as: <?php echo $vbulletin->userinfo['location'] ?><br /> <?php the_author_ID(); ?> <?php the_author_meta(); ?> <?php the_author_description(); ?> but no luck I am desperate to find how to do this and have't had much success googling or searching for it. |
hey people i'm back!! :D

Hi all,
I'm having the same problem that AndyAA has but with a twist. I'm trying to make two things work: Show the author's info and also make the comments propperly work becouse it won't get the user's avatar. Also, I have a problem where the author is always the same (from vB DB) no matter which user posts and I have multiple contributors... how an I fix this? Also, has anyone had any problem with the flash upload system in WP after installing this addon? I had to switch to normal uploader becouse the flash system won't recognize users as logged in when this plugin is active. Using 2.91 + 3.8.4. Thanks! |
I'm having the same "author" issue as mentioned above. I'm currently running WP 2.7 and VB 3.8.1. I can't upgrade until there is a solution t this since the bridge is integral to my site (www.tmrzoo.com). I've been using ver. 3.05 of the bridge for some time now. NONE of my 774 WP users and 1362 VB users have the same userid. After I upgrade, all of the author names are wrong. Any fix for this?

InfoNirvana,
Thanks for that. I'll be honest that installing it isn't an issue - it's trying to debug problems. We've got as far as getting it all installed and posts being posted to VB, however when we set it to Auto-Integrate we get the following PHP Error reported in our logs: Fatal error: Cannot redeclare get_userdatabylogin() |

I have - the wordpress install is 2.9.1 and vbulletin is 3.7.6. We've followed instructions (the only tweak we had to do was provide an absolute path to our globals.php file). Everything worked fine up until Auto-Integration.

You get this error when you have another plugin conflicting with it. Disable all other plugins and enable just the bridge. When you have it working, then enable the others one by one. If you encounter the same error, you have found the culprit. Sorry to say but you cannot use that plugin along side the bridge due to conflict. Try finding an alternative. |
So far I've got this working. I still have to make a good "About the Author" to go in every article in my WP while fetching everything from vB and to make my WP comments (without using the comments from the forum replies) appear with the user's avatar but I can wait for that.
My problem right now is that the bridge is making IE8 act strange. With this plugin activated, there's like a 150px width blank space to the right of my site so I have a horizontal scroll bar. If I use this bar and scroll to the right, it shows only the page background color without the 100% width background images in the top and bottom. It's like the site's CSS knows where to stop repeating images but the browser thinks that the page is wider. It doesn't happens in Firefox. Any guesses? Thanks! |
What happens to custom usergroups from VBulletin? Do we manually add each user to Editor, Contributor usergroups in WP?
I have a few VB users I like to make Editors and how do I go about this. |
Bridge works for me.
Currently using: WordPress 2.9.1 and vBulletin 4.0.1 (the latest version for both software) Question: How do you make it display a link back to Wordpress in the vBulletin forums instead of copying the entire blog article? |

Hello I have successfully installed this one posts are posted on the forums, vbulletin can log in etc etc. However when I insert an image in my post via the add image uploader in wordpress the pop up uploader keeps redirecting me to the log in screen, when I enter my log in details it goes blank. Any ideas?
Thanks |

Try switching to explorer upload. I know it's a pain to upload one by one, but that error happens only when using the flash uploader. |
I woud like to get this installed but would not even know where to begin.. Would it cost much to have someone install this for me and make sure its all working as it should be ?? ..

I have this working to the point of people can use the same login for both forum and WP. I can post to forum as well.
After i can make a test post, I then turn on integration and turn of Post to Forum. Now I tried to map a usergroup to Contributor or Author and when I click Map, they have this warning Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /public_html/wp-content/plugins/vbbridge.php:153) in /public_html/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 868 all the previous posts are now not showing any author because the mapping didn't work. any idea? |
