Complete Wordpress/Vbulletin Bridge - Share Users And Postings
Developer Last Online: Oct 2022
DOES NOT WORK FOR Vbulletin 4.x This version probably no longer works for Wordpress 3.x. I have started developing this product over and have released the NEW version here: http://www.lampwrights.com/showthread.php?t=41 This mod bridges your Vbulletin users over to Wordpress. You can also use Vbulletin as your comment engine instead of the spammy one built into Wordpress. You can display the comments inline in your post. You need not use the comment feature, if your only interested in sharing users. You can map your Vbulletin Usergroups to Wordpress Usergroups and those users will then be recognized as registered Wordpress users. For example, user "Joe" registers at your forum and logs in. Joe then clicks on your Wordpress page. Joe is instantly added to the Wordpress user base with the permissions you set for his usergroup. In otherwords, if a user comes over belonging to the "Registered User" group, you can select that he is placed in the Wordpress "Subscriber" usergroup. If you change a users group from vbulletin, it will automatically change in Wordpress. Requirements:
01/03/2007 - Fixed the unlock_tables() issue on some setups. 01/03/2007 - Fixed a bug in the script that if you used a MySQL database prefix, integration would not work. Please see this post for more information! Special thanks to axisoverdrive for giving me access to his server and letting me troubleshoot the issue! 01/05/2007 - Fixed issue where if a user saved (not published) and published later, the post would not be added to the forum. 01/05/2007 - When a post is edited, it will also be edited in the forum. 01/08/2007 - Modified slightly so when posts are edited, so are the titles (if edited). 02/07/2007 - Major modifications to new version (now 2.05). The list follows:

I am using VB 3.6.4 and WP 2.5.0, both using the same database
Posts made in WP post to the proper forum, etc., however when I try to logout of WP it takes me to vb and gives me an error: Quote:
Also- WP visitors comments don't seem to be posted to vb - is this normal? Also- after installing this, whenever I activate a new plugin, I get this error: Quote:

another thing I just noticed. When logging in as admin from another computer it will not allow me to go to the "site admin" link in vb - it takes me to the forum index if I click the "site admin" link. I uninstalled it at this point it seems to be pretty buggy, but I am looking forward to more development for this WP plugin.

Ok I am unable to recreate the issues the few of you are having and I have this installed on three different servers. If you have such issues, the only real way I would be able to do anything about it is to have access to your server via FTP so I can see it first hand.

On my servers, the unlock_tables() error did not show up on the pages themselves, however, I was able to find it in the server logs. This allowed me to isolate the error.
You can either download the latest version and replace it, or just add this line right after the <?php tag in the vbridge.php file: Code:
define('NOSHUTDOWNFUNC', true); |

Thanks, Jafo!
Unfortunately, nothing seems to have changed. Just wondering -- i've also got phpBB and Menalto Gallery installed on the same server. Could they be interfering with this bridge at all? |

Had a few problems: if you save /edit a post before you publish it would not show up in the forum. And anything I edited would not be edited in the forum, but i guess thats pretty logical. All my posts where posted as guest btw, assumed it would be under my own name when logged in. Never assume i guess :P
Other then this, it worked well. But moved to vBDrupal, the template integration is brilliant. |

I think I found the issue. I could have sworn I did this originally but the code simply wasn't there.
I forgot to add TABLE_PREFIX to a SQL call to the VB database, so basically it could not find any users IF you used a database prefix on your VB install. This is why it did not affect everyone. You can either download and replace with the latest plugin (no need to deactivate), or you can edit the code by finding this line in vbbridge.php: Code:
$sql = "SELECT * FROM user WHERE userid=" . intval($vbulletin->GPC[COOKIE_PREFIX . userid]) . " AND MD5(CONCAT(password, '". COOKIE_SALT ."')) = '" . addslashes($vbulletin->GPC[COOKIE_PREFIX . password]) . "'"; Code:
$sql = "SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user WHERE userid=" . intval($vbulletin->GPC[COOKIE_PREFIX . userid]) . " AND MD5(CONCAT(password, '". COOKIE_SALT ."')) = '" . addslashes($vbulletin->GPC[COOKIE_PREFIX . password]) . "'"; Please NOTE! If your WP login name is the same as your VB username, this user will NOT be ported! If this was the case, you could lose your WP admin rights if there was an error, or if you deactivated the plugin. |

Added a couple things today. Fixed the problem where if you saved, and published later, the script would not post to the forum.
When you edit a WP post, it will automatically be edited in the forum. |

So would this plugin not work if your forum and wordpress were on different subdomains?
Say your WP is on http://domain.com and your vB was on http://forums.domain.com. |
