The Arcive of Official vBulletin Modifications Site.

About Developer · **Released**: 04-25-2007

Warning!!! An potential exploit has been found in this modification. The server that hosts vjoomla.com has been attacked several times. It is known to already be severely comprimised so at this time it is unclear whether the vulnerability lies in vJoomla, Joomla itself or the server. Until this is resolved to my satisfaction I am removing this modification. My apologies.

The modification WILL be re-released once this issue is resolved!

vJoomla is an offshoot of Joomla 1.0 that is designed to run in tandem with vbulletin. Unlike the main release it will not run without vbulletin - if you desire a CMS without a forum then use Joomla! instead. vJoomla is identical in most all regards to Joomla!

What vJoomla Does

Provide a single session, single login interface to Joomla and vbulletin.
Allows Joomla pages to be skinned by vbulletin's template engine.
Maps Joomla usergroups to vbulletin usergroups.

What vJoomla Does Not Do

It does not rewrite your templates for you - so you will need to go in currently and change relative links to images and pages to absolute links. This is most important in the style sheets and in the navbar template. This is something you need to do yourself rather than programmatically since no two sites are likely to be using the same style sheet and the same setup for these links.

Install Instructions

Log into your admincp
Close your forum
If your forums are at the root of your site move them elsewhere - the best location is probably /forum
Upload the files from the zip packages to their respective locations. There should be no overwrites.
Navigate to the root of your site and run the Joomla installer.
Go back to the admincp and install the Joomla product file
Now either copy the ./cpstyles, ./clientscript and ./images directory of the forum into the Joomla directory OR create symbolic links to those directories. The contents of the ./images directory of Joomla and vbulletin will need to be merged.

This is release candidate 2.

Overall page layout is controlled by template jos_main. You will need to remove $module[left] where it appears in the template.

Productive night so far. Who's Online is done and Login nearly so.

Well, we've arrived - Release Candidate 1. There are still a couple of *wants* missing from this product, but all the *needs* are covered. Specifically

Unified login between Joomla and vBulletin
Single Sessions between Joomla and vBulletin
You may choose between the Joomla and vBulletin template engine (the setting for this is in the vbulletin admincp.
You may configure which usergroups in vbulletin match up to joomla. Using this permission masking you can then limit content by usergroup in Joomla.
Recent threads and Who's Online is displayed in Joomla.

There are other wants I will address in the next few months - but I have two sites I'm developing more specific code for. One of the first addon's will be aimed at one of those boards - the recent blog entries for vBlogetin.

Enjoy - and please report any bugs found either here or at www.vjoomla.com

First. Good to know. When you say you can choose which template system to use, does that mean Joomla templates will skin your VB board accordingly? I thought you said you couldn't use any Joomla-only templates with this product?

Joomla will NOT skin vbulletin. This last minute addition is to allow Joomla's template engine to control the Joomla pages as normal. It might also come in handy with certain modules and components.

No, that is the problem i asked you about. Alot of people have been getting it! What you have to do is go straight to www.yoursite.com/installation/install.php

Also another thing, if you cannot login for step 2 or 3 for adminCP, go into your adminCP on your forums, go into options and for your cookie and session settings, dont have stuff like "/forum" make sure you have the entire path, "home/myname/public_html/forum" and it will let you login to websites in another path of your domain. You may wish to include this somewhere in a faq michael morris, it fixed my problem and im certain it will fix others.

Nice, it works, i have one final small problem however. The Who's online module doesn't include the forum in it's link. So it's supposed to go to http://www.teamqg.com/qg/member.php?etcetc. But now it goes to http://www.teamqg.com/member.php?etcetc. Is there a easy way to fix that?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
