Can I use this to Share the Users with different Domains? It's not very Important that they only must Login Once, that might be impossible with two Domains. But all other?

I'm using it with WP 2.6. Got 3 troubles.
1. Read all, but of course I would like to use www.domain.com for blog and forum.domain.com for forum. Maybe its possible to make WP send cookies via come extra plug/page/plain php/.htaccess at www.domain.com?
2. With www.domain.com/forum plug works, but it does not support pages (not posts). It makes plug almost useless :(, I'm going to use WP as a CMS, not blog.
3. It cant update posts in forum after updating posts in WP, isn't it? :(

Same here, can't seem to find any of the two lines.
Tho this is a really nice system. The posting from WP to vB works perfect.

ok i think i understand now but im getting the fallowing error after making a post

Also i don't want this to bring my post over to my forum

i just want to share the database users.

Hey I fixed my problem!!!

Can this plugin support vBSEO??

Can we have avatars in the comments??

I second that. That would be awsome.
Having the posters avatar off to the left of his post :p

it would also be cool if the search box searched the forums as well as the blogs
and when you clicked usernames it went to their VB account im going to try to figure this out :)

Any help? Trying to get this to work for ages :(

The search box can be configured to do this. You can have a check box or option choice for Blogs of Forums, and this can be edited in WP > Admin > Themes > Search Form

I will be trying to do this. It would also be good to maybe get Google Custom Search rather than doing that and leave it for a bit so Google indexes it..

The user names can go to the user profile anyway.. You could do

So if Sarah posted, her avatar or her comment link will go to forums/members/sarah.html

To get this Re-Write rule.. in the forum root, open or make .htaccess


:D

i get this error when ever i try to post something on word press

i would greatly appreciate it if someone helped i can change my set up in any way possible to make this work
but i am currently running 3.7.2 patch level 1 an wordpress 2.6


EDIT ive tried a clean instillation of both vbulletin 3.7.2 and wordpress 2.6 and i get the same error


i think im installing wordpress wrong
i put it in the same MySQL with wp_ as the prefix or do i do it the same as my vbull?

Are you sure you have read the instructions?

The prefix does not matter. Install Wordpress first in
www.x.com/blog
Then install vBulletin in
www.x.com/forums, make two accounts, Guest and a new forum
Now try to install the modification in Wordpress
The prefix is the one you have in vBulletin /includes/config.php

Just copy that prefix into the Prefix option when installing vBulletins modification you do not need to install or copy or worry about WPs prefix. Just use vBulletins prefix and place that in the WP installation page..

:)

any news about this plugin working with wordpress 2.6 ?? I still with this plugin deactivated because of the problem :(

The plugin works with 2.6. Whats the issue poster #131?

well did you upgraded your wordpress to 2.6 ? and still can login ?? because all my users are directed to forum page but they are authenticated. this started to happen after my upgrade to wordpress 2.6

well ive finally got it to work
however ive run in to a new problem
overtime i try to login to my word-press CP it redirects me to my forums
how can i fix this

I guess this could have been asked before, but I see there's a lot of pages for this and prior versions so I'll take my chances and ask:

?Don't you think that this mod would hurt google rankings since the articles will exist both in WP url and VB url thus generating duplicated content? This consideration is the only thing stopping me from installing :(

Sorry everyone for being away, just moved to a new home and time is a valuable thing right now. Not sure where everyone is, but if you still have questions, let me know here in this thread.

Just don't have it set so that it copies over to the Forums thats how i have it (you can also SEO wordpress so you have nothing to loose) IMO

Not ignoring you guys, I know there is an issue with 2.6 that's why I never upgrade WP. I only apply changelog patches..

there's a way to do a mass conversion of vb users to wp users? i see that sometimes the script will register logged in users as new wp users, but don't seems to happen ever.

Cheers,
Luca

I can get it to find global.php, but when I go to make a new post I just get a blank screen. Does it have to do with the fact I'm using vBSEO?

Hi,

The wordpress blog posts appear in vBulletin, but the html markup appears in the vbulletin post text. Is there a way to convert the html to bbcode during post creation?

The same thing happened to me, what I did is just replace the vbridge.php file with a new copy (downloaded the zip again) and it worked, it sopped showing blank pages. I'm using WP 2.6 and vBSEO as well.

In my case, the HTML is automatically converted to bbcode, you can see some calls to the function convert_wysiwyg_html_to_bbcode inside vbridge.php so it's supposed to convert your posts wthout doing anything else. If that doesn't work, you can activate HTML on your forum and if you're concerned about security issues, use this hack, it's intended to allow HTML code to specific usergroups and works with VB 3.7.2

Hope that helps.

The conversion functions are only called when the post truncation is enabled. My temporary workaround is to set a 10000 character truncation size.

I had exactly the same problem and was unable to solve it locally.

I came here a few minutes ago and saw your post, implemented your suggested fix to vbbridge.php and voila - problem gone.

Thanks very much for sharing your solution! :up:

Mike :)

I had an issue with one of the requirements that limits this mod to be installed on the same subdomain. Luckily, I found a quick-fix solution around the issue:

I setup a blog located at vend123.com/blog but the forums are located at forums.vend123.com. There is an issue with this regarding the domain and that's only because of the vBulletin cookie. The issue is this script needs to access that cookie, but that cookie is registered at forums.vend123.com, which means anything on vend123.com won't be able to access it. To resolve the issue, the cookie needed to be set to .vend123.com (i.e. cross domain cookie). This can be configured within vBulletin's options by going to AdminCP->vBulletin Options->Cookies and HTTP Header Options under Cookie Domain. From the "Suggested Settings" drop-down, select .yourdomain.com. This should solve the problem!

EDIT: Make sure you clear your vBulletin cookie after performing this (just log-out and log back in).

Solved both my problems after further investigation. So far so good on 3.7.2 with wordpress 2.6.

I've been seeing this issue as well, if I attempt to login to wp-admin first, it redirects to the forums main site. However, if I login to the forums with an admin account, then go back to WP and try wp-admin again, it will work normally.

im dieing for someone to release a way to get avatars from the forums and post them next to the comments any one have any idea

and how to login in on the blog instead of needing to be redircted to the forums

Wow man, I worked with trying to solve this problem all day yesterday and I got no where. http://TripleChat.com/ is my website and it uses this mod just perfect now but they one thing I really liked before this mod on wordpress was that avatars...now there are non and I want to find a way to load them.

I was trying to find a way to use the bridge to pull it but i couldn't find a way. I know there should be a way but I just dont have the complete knowlage of php to figure it out.

So I too would like to figure out a way to pull uses Avatars from the forums to the blog.

I know a little php but im not familiar enough with the vbulletin MySQL so i dont know what quarry i would use to get the information

Hi,

I have followed the instructions and all is working perfectly bar one thing. For some reason, when I type posts, it is trimming a lot off of them now. Is there any reason for this?

Thxs,

Barry

This is due to a character encoding mismatch. I assume you are using ISO for wordpress.

In wp-config.php change the following lines:

to:

Wordpress will work just fine with those lines commented out.

Your path is wrong then, that is why it cannot find the files.

Did anyone this comment modification for Wordpress 2.6 default template? I am not able to find the lines which I have to replace! Is it in comments-popup.php or ... don't know?!

by the way: Did I understand it correctly, that if I use the vB-Engine for comments, the comments are also posted in the thread?

Thanks for your help & Sorry for my bad english ;)

Hi does anyone know how to merge the two databases if I already have my vBulletin running for a long time with a large amount of posts and members, and a fresh install of Wordpress?

I am having issues with logging out. I click log out in WP and I am redirected to VB but I cannot log out of VB. It just keeps me logged in.

Any ideas? Also, I cannot get the users into WP? I followed the directions but can not get it to work.

Also, how do I completely remove this that way I can try installing it again? The footprint is still in the database...

Running vb 3.6.8 and this addon smoothly.

Now I need to upgrade to 3.7.2 PL2, could it cause any problems? (to the functionality of this add-on?)

Thanks.

ok, i have multiple sign ins to my blog. all have admin privileges, but only one is the log in to my vb install. I turned the plug in off......logged out.......went back to /wp-admin and it automatically forwards me to my vb index page.....? How do I turn this thing off and still log into my blog?

ok, after disabling, clearing cookies.....I can not log in to my admin index on the blog; it auto forwards me to my forums......????? HELP! running 3.7.2 and 2.6
