I imagine you could get a lot of ideas looking at that plugin. balgo on "Integrating bbPress into other systems" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/integrating-bbpress-into-other-systems#post-18337 Fri, 15 Aug 2008 23:24:10 +0000 balgo 18337@http://bbpress.org/forums/ I'd like to add a comment system to MediaWiki using bbPress as the backend. I imagine it'd work like the following: 1. each mediawiki creates a bbpress topic in a specific forum 2. if logged in, users can comment from the mediawiki page. anyone have any clues to this? is bbsync the closest system to this at the moment?

The wiki, at this time works stand-alone. What's happening here is a version incompatibility issue, methinks, betwixt Authpress and MediaWiki. There are some code structure changes from 1.9.x to 1.10.1 but I don't know what they were. I do know one thing, no one has submitted this to the MediaWiki team, why not? I should have been able to download it from there and I could even get help from them, if it were submitted. sambauers on "MediaWiki, bbPress, and WordPress integration.." http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/mediawiki-bbpress-and-wordpress-integration/page/2#post-11944 Tue, 13 Nov 2007 12:03:52 +0000 sambauers 11944@http://bbpress.org/forums/ There is an LDAP plugin which would be a good jumping off point for Active Directory authentication. <a href="http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/26" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/26</a> Theme compatibility between WordPress, bbPress and MediaWiki is a stretch.

Okay, that should integrate the Auth stuff and some judicious use of DB triggers (using MySQL5) might actually take care of most of the fleas. However, to be real Enterprise 2.0 here, the themes have to integrate aas well. Also, has anyone got WordPress to authenticate against an Active Directory Domain, like they have for MediaWiki?. spencerp on "MediaWiki, bbPress, and WordPress integration.." http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/mediawiki-bbpress-and-wordpress-integration#post-11055 Sat, 22 Sep 2007 07:00:30 +0000 spencerp 11055@http://bbpress.org/forums/ FYI: Found this on a backup CD of mine: <a href="http://spencerp.net/downloads/AuthPress.php.txt" rel="nofollow">http://spencerp.net/downloads/AuthPress.php.txt</a> Maybe someone can tweak it for PHP5?

I merely installed it to play around, customize, and get familiar with it. The whole reason for removing it is, I really don’t have the time for it. I don’t have time to add anything to it, make a theme for it, and customize it anymore. As for this article, it’s still a good reference guide as what To-Do for getting your MediaWiki, bbPress, and WP login/registration working together. :) I hope you find it as useful as I did. Well, I guess that’s it for now.

It could certainly use some expansion and improvement, but this satisfies my requirements, and I suspect it will satisfy many others' requirements, as well. I've decided that I'm OK with two separate logins against the same user table, as spencerp's solution leaves us with. I'm further integrating them now with <a href="http://openid.net/">OpenID</a>. The <a href="http://verselogic.net/projects/wordpress/wordpress-openid-plugin/">VerseLogic WordPress OpenID plugin</a> works perfectly, but I have not yet installed the <a href="http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:OpenID">MediaWiki OpenID extension</a>, which will remain necessary since logging in will still be handled by MediaWiki itself. After that, we'll get to a level of integration I've yet to really even think about: user preferences and profiles. My initial thoughts on that are to point the bbPress profiles to the MediaWiki User pages, and develop an extension to display forum user information. Editing preferences might be easier by learning how each program stores that information and writing a whole new script to handle it. I'm certainly open to alternative ideas. jefgodesky on "Adapting wp-mediawiki for bbPress" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/adapting-wp-mediawiki-for-bbpress#post-4399 Mon, 12 Feb 2007 04:55:33 +0000 jefgodesky 4399@http://bbpress.org/forums/ Success! The <a href="http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/5">Allow Images</a> plugin does nearly the same thing I'm trying to do here. The "pre_post" hook applies the filter when the post is saved, and ideally I'd prefer if the filter were applied when the post is displayed instead, but this can manage all the same. I've had to make some changes to accomodate escaping of single quotes, and I've expanded the filter to also include aliases for "internal" links, so this will cover MediaWiki's markup for: <ul> <li>Bolding</li> <li>Italicizing</li> <li>Basic internal links <ul> <li>With aliases</li> <li>Not including template transclusion, image embedding, or anything fancy like that.</li> </ul> </li> <li>External links <ul> <li>External links without descriptions are numbered</li> <li>Descriptions are handled</li> </ul> </li> </ul> So, fairly basic mockup, but already meeting all the most common usage. Here's the working plugin in whole as I have it now. I've put in a request to include it in Subversion repository with the other plugins. <pre><code><?php /* Plugin Name: MediaWiki Markup for bbPress Plugin URI: <a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/713" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/713</a> Description: Add a subset of MediaWiki markups to bbPress Version: 0.1 Author: Jason Godesky Author URI: <a href="http://anthropik.com/" rel="nofollow">http://anthropik.com/</a> */ /* Copyright 2006 Jason Godesky (email : <a href="mailto:jason@anthropik.com)">jason@anthropik.com)</a> This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.

Note: Heh, well, it looks like the formatting I needed to get the bold and italics to work got stripped out. What you need to do is to replace ''' with \\\'\\\'\\\' -- it's a Perl regex so that basically means \' which is what you'll get from the escaped MySQL string.
