Something tells me you activated the plugin before you did the test post as per the readme.

I am very confused about how users are supposed to work with this plugin.

I followed all the directions and everything worked at every stage, so I now have the plugin activated with auto-integration turned on. HOWEVER, I can only get to the dashboard from a computer that logs in with the plugin turned off. Let me explain what I mean by that.

On my laptop I can get everywhere, dashboard, forum admin area, everywhere. However when I went to my desktop this morning I could not get to the dashboard no matter what I did. I logged into the forum but no matter what path I used (/wp-admin, /wp-admin/index.php, etc) I could not get to the dashboard. I tried creating a new VB user to map to an admin WP account, but it still didn't work.

I had to go back to my laptop, turn off the plugin, log in on my desktop and click "remember me" and then everything is fine on my desktop as well.

I thought the idea was that you used this plugin, logged in via VB, and were then logged in in WP?

Also, I do not fully understand this line: "If the admin username in Vbulletin is the same as the one in Wordpress (i.e. Admin), that user will NOT be able to login to the WP dashboard."

Does this mean that each user can only be an admin in one section or the other, and never both, or is this only at the time of installation? Right now I have VB admins set to map to WP admins (makes sense, no?). But maybe that doesn't matter because the new user I just set up in VB doesn't show up in the WP users area.

But ironically the username that works totally on my laptop is an admin in both sections of the site and can use both with no problem.

Sigh, these may be very obvious questions, but I'm so confused and my observed behavior isn't matching up to what it says I should expect in the readme.

"If the admin username in Vbulletin is the same as the one in Wordpress (i.e. Admin), that user will NOT be able to login to the WP dashboard."

Not sure how to make this any clearer.. If you have a Vbulletin user who has a username "Admin" and a separate Wordpress user who has a username "Admin" they WILL NOT bridge. Existing usernames that are identical in both Wordpress and Admin will not bridge.

Dunno how clearer I can make that.

Ok, so if I set up a new Admin in VB and admin's are set to map to admin's in WP, that new VB Admin should map to a Wp admin, correct?

EDIT: I think I've figured it out, any users registered in VB through the control panel do not map to WP, only users that register through the "register" link on the forums get mapped over.

Actually, your almost right.. You have to make sure you enter an email address when you create a user in the VB adminCP..

I have upgraded to wp 2.5 and the plugin breaks the new interface for adding media and pictures to posts, it will return 'Are you sure you want to do this? Please try again'.
Any fix for that, please?.

Is there any reason you can't use this plugin in a reduced functionality mode?

Everything works fine without Auto-Integration turns on, once that happens things go pear shaped with logins and cookies and users and it's just a big mess I can't sort out.

However, without that I still get my posts in WP sent over to VB and I still get the link for the comments in my WP posts, which is all I really want. The logging in through VB and user mapping and all that I don't need.

Would that work? Just turn the plugin on, post to forums turned on, but auto-integrate turned off?

Auto-integrate is turned off ... but it still don't work :-(

Sorry, I was actually asking a new question rather than replying to yours.

I have no clue about the new functionality, heh.

Please download the latest version.
