Hey

Great work on reviving this; saved me from buying another bb license >.<

Nevertheless, on the diagnostics page, i get an error:

Notice: Undefined variable: IP in /var/www/path/w/LocalSettings.php on line 139

Warning: require_once(/extensions/Poem/Poem.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/path/w/LocalSettings.php on line 139

Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required '/extensions/Poem/Poem.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/pear') in /var/www/path/w/LocalSettings.php on line 139

if i just comment out that line, it throws an error on the next extension. It doesn't seem to find the whole extension folder...

i'm using vb 4.2.2 and mw 1.22.4. Any ideas?

[Edit]
nvm, figured it out. $IP is not defined, so i set it to my wiki root path and chdir'd there:

PHP Code:

$IP = "/var/www/path/w";
chdir("/var/www/path/w"); 


and it *kinda* worked. Some errors were thrown by the WikiEditor, which seem to be unrelated to vbmediawiki though.

works great on 4.2.2

I'm interested in using this for www.MoparWiki.com as it was getting Spammed despite trying every suggested mediawiki spam addon. Want to use www.moparstyle.com/forums but I'm concerned with those reporting problems and lack of activity on this thread/addon.

Anyone recently install with latest versions of vbulletin and Mediawiki, that want to give their experience?

[Flightbase]

Anyone still maintaines this for current versions?

[Flightbase]

I found this page:

https://wikiapiary.com/wiki/Extension:VbMediaWikiVector

There is a vb4.2.3 linked, using mediawiki 1.26.2 and extension version "2.0".

I registered there and SSO worked as well as uploading files without session data lost error.

FYI.

I will try that "2.0" version these days...

Any update or new info?
