All modules are now in separate packages
to add module just download the module file
and unzip it in the /components/com_connector/modules folder
if not exists, create one

Online Demo running with vbulletin module (SOAP)

http://www.c4u.to

HOWTOs:

switching from vbridge to com_connector
creating own modules
patching joomla.php file himself


Component Information and description
This Component is only for the connection from joomla -> application
at the moment are following things supported:
common login
global changing password
global changing username/email
synchronistion of the users ( by first login or registration )

That does i need to run this component?

for this component alone you needs only joomla 1.0.x
it should run with PHP4 und PHP5(tested)

some modules like vbulletin_soap can have own requirements (needs php5 + SOAP extension )


That does this component do?

this component allow you to connect different applications to joomla over SOAP/XMLRPC, SQL Connects ( other methods are posible too )
You should use this component if you wants to have common login with an aplications ( which based on cookie login (session to, because it use cookie to store a sessionid ))
it is posible to create own moduless to connect any applications

How to install
1.
download and extract the files_to_replace.zip" file
move all files from "upload" folder in your joomla root folder

2.
login into joomla administration and install the "com_connector.zip"
using joomla component installer

How to use
go to "Administration/Components/Connector"
click to "New"


Title: title/name of the module
Module: Choose a Module like "vbulletin"
URL: is a link to the application ( not to the module !! )
Add User to Joomla: if the user not exists in joomla he will be added
Add User to App.: if the user dont exists in the connected application it will be added
Display Mode: Wrapped = in iframe, Not Wrapped = redirect to application


Click on Save
you will be redirected to module settings
this settings can be different in every module


after you have added a data, you can create a menu link

go to Menu config, create on New and select "Connector Item"
in next dialog select you application and click to save

done

I get this error if the username don't exist in vbulletin.


Code:
DB function failed with error number 1064
You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 3 SQL=UPDATE jos_users SET connector_cookies = 'a:0:{}' WHERE id =
SQL = 
UPDATE jos_users
 SET connector_cookies = 'a:0:{}'
 WHERE id =
if you get your password right the first time however, all the info is transfered to joomla.

once the user is in joomla, and he gets his password wrong, the normal "Incorrect username or password. Please try again shows up."

Thanks.

Still won't log me into vb automatically even though I set my domain to .domain.com since my vb is under forum.domain.com

Also is there a way to synch all users to Joomla?

I got this running fine, even after VBridge install. The only problem, is my members arent listed on the forums. Will everyone have to re-register once again?

Does this work with vBulletin 3.5.4, with Joomla 1.0.8? And does Joomla have to be installed on the same database as vB?

I'm getting an error using vBulletin 3.5.4, and Joomla 1.0.8. Any ideas?

This is happening as soon as I go to Administrator > Components > New

Okay. So, I added the module folder in the "/components/com_connector". And now I can click on the "New" button in Joomla to create a new module. Although. How do I create one for vBulletin??

Instructions:

Choose a Module like "vbulletin"

How do I get the module "vbulletin" am I supposed to install that seperately in the modules folder?

Thanks,
Paul

Okay. Figured out how to get the module into there, but I'm still getting errors. I've made it all the way through the installation process, although when users from my forum try to login to the site... I get this error.

Quote:
Warning: mosMainFrame::require_once(./components/com_connector/modules/vbulletin.class.php) [function.mosMainFrame-require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /homepages/9/*********/******/xyztraining_new/includes/joomla.php on line 970

Fatal error: mosMainFrame::require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required './components/com_connector/modules/vbulletin.class.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php5') in /homepages/9/**********/********/xyztraining_new/includes/joomla.php on line 970
Any thoughts? Just a suggestion as well. Has anyone though about putting together a simple installation document on how to do this. ??? You could cut back on a million posts all over the web trying to figure this out, if someone could just go through each step in detail...

Thanks, I really need to get this up, I have a deadline. I would appreciate any help you could give me.

Thanks,
Paul

Hello everyone!

I'd like to connect Joomla and the vB too, but bevor I have some questions:

1) Is it possible to show the Shoutbox on the Joomla page?

2) Is it possible to add any kind of vB modul, like "Top 5 Posters", "Newest Members" or "Newest Topics" on the Joomla page?

Greetings
WoD

Hey I'm not sure about some of your other questions. But I do know how I got Joomla to work on vBulletin 3.5.4. As usual it cost me something, but I used BBPixel to do the job. And they did an awesome job with my template, and integration via the plugin.

Thanks,
Paul
