[Dsyn11]

is anyone else developing Wiki software for vB? I'm under time constraints to get this up.

When it tries to access a user the following error pops up: Warning mysql_num_rows(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/site/html/wiki/AuthPlugin_vBulletin.php on line 47

I tested and it is logging into the db right, but there must be something when it selects the data that messes it up. Any ideas?

Is there a way to make the AuthPlugin_vBulletin.php output text? If I can have it output variables onto the screen, I could try to debug the issue.

I'm error too, , i use prefix table name .

And then AuthPlugin_vBulletin.php itself:
.......

This works perfectly fine, but for one problem.... Inserting the code in LocalSettings.php creates a "session" to mysql every time someone accesses *any* page in the wiki... (you can see this by putting in the wrong password). On my server, this caused too many sessions being created in mysql, and resulted in the intermittent access problems (as the db was unavailable)!!


The way around this is to insert this code at the begining of

wiki/includes/User.php and
wiki/includes/SpecialUserlogin.php (not sure if we need to insert the code in this file, but just to be sure... )

This takes care of the excess pinging problem, as the vb database is accessed only when a user tries to login.

You got it!

I just changed all "FROM user" to (for my prefix) "FROM vb3_user" in AuthPlugin_vBulletin.php

I'll look into the changes suggested by ndahiya now.

Update: Tested, putting the code in wiki/includes/User.php is all that is needed. Putting it in SpecialUserlogin.php seemed to mess things up. My guess is because it is a class file.

Now I'm looking how to remove certain text and better customize wiki.

It works fine now, thanks

Is there any way those who made this script could create a new post either here on vb.org or over on meta for mediawiki outlining step-by-step what one has to do to integrate vb and mediawiki?

Can you code gurus do a release please... I would love to have this integration. also a step by step guide to install would be great. Thanks for all the stuff done so far.
Cheers

I would agree. I have been watching this for a while now and I'm not too comfortable with all the little code changes here and there from the different posts. I'm afraid I might mess something up. I can't wait for a release of this though.

well I just got my template addon upgraded to 3.5. Is there a 'main thread' for this? I only have about 8 hours a week to dedicate to this, but I'd love to help out.
