Identical to this Mod here, but now for the Vbulletin 3.8 line.
DOES NOT WORK FOR Vbulletin 4.x

This version probably no longer works for Wordpress 3.x. I have started developing this product over and have released the NEW version here:

http://www.lampwrights.com/showthread.php?t=41




This mod bridges your Vbulletin users over to Wordpress. You can also use Vbulletin as your comment engine instead of the spammy one built into Wordpress. You can display the comments inline in your post. You need not use the comment feature, if your only interested in sharing users.

You can map your Vbulletin Usergroups to Wordpress Usergroups and those users will then be recognized as registered Wordpress users.

For example, user "Joe" registers at your forum and logs in. Joe then clicks on your Wordpress page. Joe is instantly added to the Wordpress user base with the permissions you set for his usergroup. In otherwords, if a user comes over belonging to the "Registered User" group, you can select that he is placed in the Wordpress "Subscriber" usergroup.

If you change a users group from vbulletin, it will automatically change in Wordpress.

Requirements:
  • DOES NOT and WILL NEVER support Wordpress MU.
  • Wordpress and Vbulletin scripts must reside on the same physical server.
  • Wordpress and Vbulletin must use the same domain name.
  • Stable Wordpress Version greater than or equal to 2.7.
  • DOES work for Vbulletin 3.7.
  • Does work for vBulletin 3.8.
Limitations:
  • Does not work for 4.x. Why? Because VB 4.x does not work for me. If they ever make that product worth a shit, I might support it.
  • Please don't ask if it works for any BETA versions of Vbulletin. I do not know and will not convert this to the latest version of VB (whatever it is at the time you are reading this) until the version is released as non-beta.
  • Does not work with XMLRPC.
  • Chances are, this will not work when VB and Wordpress are located in different sub domains. I.E. forum.yoursite.com - blog.yoursite.com. Cookie issue.
  • I did the best I could in determining your forums file path with the script. There may be certain script setups that cannot find the file path properly, in which case you may get errors that the script cannot find or open /config.php. If this is the case, please HARDCODE your ABSOLUTE path to the forum in vbridge.php.

    To do this find:

    Code:
     ## If you are having path problems, uncomment this next variable and define the path
    ## NO TRAILING SLASH!
    # $vwd = '/some/path/to/your/forum';
    And uncomment the last line, and change the path to your forums path:

    Code:
     ## If you are having path problems, uncomment this next variable and define the path
    ## NO TRAILING SLASH!
    $vwd = '/some/path/to/your/forum';
Common Mistakes When Installing:
  • Using two different host names causes problems. If your forum URL contains www.yourdomain.com, then your wordpress blog URL MUST contain the www. part of www.yourdomain.com also. This goes for any other host name. Browsers are finnecky when it comes to cookies (as they should be).
  • Editors generally EDIT, not write. In Wordpress, editors don't show up in the post author drop down. This has nothing to do with this plugin, that is Wordpress code.
  • Make sure you DO NOT create a subdirectory for this plugin in the wp-content/plugins directory. Just upload it directly there..
  • If you do not map users before you turn auto-integrate on, the plugin has no idea whether your allowed into the dashboard.
  • If you all of a sudden can't login to the dashboard, see the above two common mistakes.
  • FOLLOW the directions and make a test post first. Being in a rush and not testing will most likely turn out bad for you.
UPDATES:

Changelog is included in download, here is the most recent changes:

3/09/2009
  • Added code to process scheduled posts
  • Addressed code where links and images would not show up properly in VB
  • Added new table called vb_forumid for scheduled posts
  • Reduced redundant calls when dealing with forum excerpts

So, any news on getting this to run on 2 different sub domains?

My site is at www.mysite.com and my forums are at http://forums.mysite.com

So i'm guessing it can't work for me until a fix has been made?

And in fact, dont think this will work, my forum and blog are on a different database, while on the same server. Your instructions made no mention of needing to share the same database so I didnt set my site up this way and now it is too late to go back.

So, knowing my forum and site are on two different databases (same server), is it possible to bridge the user login and access levels or no? Comments can remain on the wordpress side of things I dont care as long as they work.
I am using my site for the exact same purpose with no problems at all..so far. And NO...you do not need to have them in the same DB. I myself run my installations on different DBs.

I need to do the same as you, just bridge the users - no posts in any way...

Thanks 4 getting back to us amjadz4
you are welcome!

try this:
do not type anything in the relative path in vbridge settings. and open vbridge.php...edit the line
PHP Code:
$vwd '____'
in place of ____ write the full path to the subdomain folder..
give it a try!

What do i put for the forum url?

http://forums.eteknix.com or http://www.eteknix.com/forums ?

The main domain is the first one.

I left the path blank and put this line in:

$vwd = '/home/aruffell/public_html/forums';

and when i try my test post i get:

Warning: require_once(./includes/class_dm.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/aruffell/public_html/wp-content/plugins/vbbridge.php on line 113

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required './includes/class_dm.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/aruffell/public_html/wp-content/plugins/vbbridge.php on line 113

Line 113:

Code:
require_once('./includes/class_dm.php');
Any ideas?

Got it working with:

$vwd = '/home/aruffell/public_html/forums';

require_once('./forums/includes/class_dm.php');

require_once('./forums/includes/class_dm_threadpost.php');

require_once('./forums/includes/functions_databuild.php');

Broken again, i think i'll give this a miss for now and wait until someone releases it properly with less errors etc...

Anyway, I'm not sure if someone has posted a fix to the media upload bug. Anyway, here's what works for me:

In vbbridge.php, around line 47, find:
Code:
#if (basename($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']) == 'upload.php') { return; }
Replace with:
Code:
if (basename($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']) == 'media-upload.php') { return; }
I'm on WP 2.7.1 so if you use a different file or utility to upload, change media-upload.php to the correct php file.
Thanks! that worked.

Folks, can anyone please guide me as to how can I get a valid authors list in WP. It always send me the vB user id: 1 as the only author.

So is this supposed to be the fix for uploading multiple images with the flash uploader? If so this didn't fix my problem...
