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

using wordpress 2.8 and vBulletin? Version 3.8.2

my site : www.retroemu.com

help is greatly greatly appreciated, if the author of this mod's fee isn't a rip off I would be willing to pay him to set it up properly for me.

Thanks to anyone who can offer some help
Please send me an email or PM and I will gladly install it for you.

ive tried everything, ^ this is when i try to reset it.

Do not use the reset file. It does not work. You have to manually delete all the files and delete the tables from the DB. Check the earlier posts, I have posted the method.

I post several bugs, including one that turns out to be a typo on the part of the coder, and your reply is "well, it should work". Yes, it should. But it doesn't. Hence the posting of the questions and the waiting for the replies.

Whenever I get some free time, I'll have to go through the code and rewrite it.

This is a beta plugin, if that. Install at your own risk.
Its okay, Well what is not working for you?

anyway to fix it?

You will need to hard code the link to forums in the plugin file. Alternatively re install it following every word in the read me. Also check your paths while setting up the plugin.

The plugin has this limitation. So, yes you need to wait for an update.

Check the first post, the mod post. The mod author has posted the way to do this, just under the limitations heading.

Hey, I'm getting the same problem as a few others after installing the plugin:

Can someone please invent a simple plugin for wordpress that passes the registration information from wordpress over to vbulletin? That way we can use membership plugins like wishlist member and wordpress tools and widgets and not have to have people register via vbulletin then get pushed back to wordpress on the homepage. Anyone know a simple way to use wordpress and vbulletin effectively?

When I try to post a test post, I get an error message saying.

You tried to access the address http://www.delilahs.co.uk/*****/wp-admin/post.php, which is currently unavailable. Please make sure that the Web address (URL) is correctly spelled and punctuated, then try reloading the page.

I know the site is online and working, but it is sending the test post to 'draft' and I cannot get it to post to my forum.

any ideas?

I am wondering that if you post in a forum for example, Site News. It shows in the WP but when you click it can that link send you to the post? Also the comments can it do the same to, click on the comments and it sends you to the post?
