MediaWiki/vBulletin Single Sign-On Details »» | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
Overview:
This hack provides single sign-on capability for MediaWiki using your vBulletin users. You must ensure your cookie path in Admin CP is set to '/' for this to work. Also, I have not tested this if your wiki and your forums are on different subdomains - but as long as your have your cookie domain set properly it *should* work. This is not a user bridge - it is a complete single sign-on using your vBulletin user repository. The install process has been extremely simplified in version 2.x of this product. You only have to edit LocalSettings.php, import a product, and change a setting in your Admin Control Panel. It's been completely packaged as a vBulletin product - unlike the previous hacked up version, heh. I didn't originally plan to release this so I designed it so it worked - not so it could be redistributed. I searched high and low for a functional MediaWiki bridge - almost bought NuHIT's product, and then realized it had been abandoned for over a year. This hack no longer requires an edit to class_core.php. I'll do my best to support it, but I can make no promises. This thread is for discussion of this mod on vB 3.7.x. For vB 3.8.x, please use the MediaWiki/vBulletin Single Sign-On 3.8 thread Demo of plugin in action: MyMMOGames - Multiplayer Gaming and Media Community Also, if you use memcached - ensure you do not cache sessions. If you do, restart it at least once a week. If you don't, you'll end up with invalid session errors out of MediaWiki. Requirements: MediaWiki Version: 1.11.0-1.14.0 vBulletin Version: 3.6.9-3.8.2 Features: - Provides single sign on capability between vBulletin and Mediawiki. vBulletin user repository is used - Configurable sysop/bureaucrat groups - Configurable disallowed user groups - Configurable "Who's Online" display - Counts users viewing wiki in vBulletin's "Who's Online" Installation/Upgrade: Please read the included "readme.txt" file in the "docs (do not upload)" folder. Options: Admin Control Panel->vBulletin Options->MMOG Wiki Options Change Log: 1.0.0.0 - Sep 18, 2008 - Initial Release 1.0.3.0 - Sep 29, 2008 - Bugfix: Incorrect redirects for login/logout 2.0.0.0 - Sep 30, 2008 - Feature: Streamlined installation procedure - Feature: Wiki path set in ACP - Bugfix: Forum paths no longer hardcoded 2.1.0 - Oct 4, 2008 - Feature: ACP option to use MediaWiki Short URLs - Feature: ACP option to set sysop groups - Feature: ACP option to set bureaucrat groups - Feature: ACP option to disallow login to certain groups - Feature: ACP option to change WOL display text 2.2.0 - May 1, 2005 - Bugfix: Users are not logged out when logging out of the forum - Bugfix: No longer requires modification to class_core.php - Feature: Mediawiki 1.13.0+ supported (verified on 1.14.0 also) If you like it, please click "mark as installed" The more people that use this, the more time I will make to try and support/update it. Been pulling your hair out looking for this as long as I have? Nominate it for Mod of the Month =] AuthPlugin was inspired by and modified from this existing MediaWiki Extension: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:QISSingleSignOn Show Your Support

Anyways the only other really missing feature would be who's online status. I get things like: Unknown Location /action/edit/Classes/Dwarf_Fighter Etc .... I also noticed some Hardcoded values for your MyMMOGames Wiki and Blog in place. If I get a chance this weekend I'll see if I can come up with a nice clean solution. Regardless this plugin is heading in the right direction. |

Version 2.1.0 has been released. The following changes were made:
- Feature: ACP option to use MediaWiki Short URLs - Feature: ACP option to set sysop groups - Feature: ACP option to set bureaucrat groups - Feature: ACP option to disallow login to certain groups - Feature: ACP option to change WOL display text Please read the upgrade instructions in readme.txt. If you're upgrading from version 2.0.x, the upgrade is very quick but you must ensure you check the new ACP settings or you may give someone unauthorized access to your wiki. I recommend turning off vBulletin before the upgrade. Quote:
Removed in version 2.1.0. |

I'm going a step beyond just using /wiki and have /action for all action events (Instead of index.php&action=) While I would classify it as interesting (I doubt many use it) it is a documented approach. You can see my site: http://www.lineagejunkies.com http://www.lineagejunkies.com/wiki Thanks again for providing a *working* plugin with fast updates! (Also thanks for not coming off as arogant like the ElfMage person who programed the last mediawiki plugin .... I really appreciate your hard work) |

This discussion somewhat started earlier in the thread. For my site, I modified the wiki templates directly. Sorry, but between work, running a game community, and trying to keep somewhat of a life, I really don't have time to go as in-depth as elfmage tried to go. Maybe one day, but there are no plans for this functionality in the foreseeable future. |

Linux, vb 3.7.3, MW 1.13 (not on my main forums, rather on a new forum im working on) |

Are your forums and wiki on different subdomains? If so, do you have your cookie settings properly configured? If not, press <Ctrl+F5> after you log in and are back on the wiki to see if it's a cache issue.

You need to use the MediaWiki configuration script to generate LocalSettings.php.
