Ok, I've got this down to something reasonably easy to do, but it is still a hack as there seems to be bad code floating about :\

I have managed to narrow down the edits to one file - arcane_vbulletin_core.php

In that file find this code

PHP Code:

// Include vBulletin Engine
    if ($g_vbWiki_StyleId_Override > 0)
    {
        define('VB_AREA', 'Forum');
        require_once('./includes/init.php');
        $vbulletin->options['styleid'] = $g_vbWiki_StyleId_Override;
        $vbulletin->options['allowchangestyles'] = false;                    // ignore user styles
        $vbulletin->userinfo['styleid'] = 0;
    }
    
    require_once('./global.php');
    require_once('./includes/functions_login.php');
    require_once("./includes/functions.php");                // vbdate
    require_once("./includes/functions_forumdisplay.php");
    require_once("./includes/functions_newpost.php");
    require_once("./includes/adminfunctions.php" ); 


A LOT of libraries are being included there, and I *think* most of them are only used by the pro-integration. I changed that whole block to the following.

PHP Code:

    require_once('./global.php');

    if ((empty($_SESSION['wsUserID']) || empty($_SESSION['wsUserName']) || empty($_SESSION['wsToken'])) 
        && !empty($_COOKIE[$wgDBname.'_'.$wgDBprefix.'UserName']))
    {
        $_SESSION = array_merge( $_SESSION, $db->query_first("SELECT 
            user_id AS wsUserID,
            user_name AS wsUserName,
            user_token AS wsToken
            FROM ".$wgDBname.".".$wgDBprefix."user
            WHERE user_name = '".addslashes($_COOKIE[$wgDBname.'_'.$wgDBprefix.'UserName'])."' LIMIT 1"));
    } 


That should fix this plug in to work with mediaWiki 1.12 and vbulletin 3.7 HOWEVER I do not guarantee the pro version will work and I also suspect that users with cookies disabled or blocked will still experience log out troubles.
