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. I have a project on the back-burner that might help with WordPress/bbPress theme integration, but MediaWiki is a big ask.

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?

PHP5 runs PHP4 code just fine; if it runs on 4, it will run on 5. (Other way around may be a problem, but that doesn't seem to be it?) The plugin might not use features of 5, but it will run under 5.

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.

The reason wy i did that is, some of these usertables contain information which would change the bahaviour of the software, such as roll, last login etc. SO its not a mater of authentication and session ONLY. You also need the other stuff!!!. i ALSO used a single portal for signup/signin. THIS SHOULD NOT BE SCARY (assuming that thinking does'nt hurt your brain). A good IDE will get everything done for you (search replace globally, find all instances of a function etc). I reccomend <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/" rel="nofollow">http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/</a> as an editor, and use PHP IDE as an ide ontop of eclipse. Be patiant, if you have'nt installed before, it could be a bit strang, but do take a better part of a weekend to figure out hw it works.

In the thread here you use terms like "MediaWiki database" and "WP database," but I'm wondering whether that actually just means the MediaWiki tables and the WP tables, all contained in one MySQL database. Do tell. :) Thanks, Nate spencerp on "MediaWiki, bbPress, and WordPress integration.." http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/mediawiki-bbpress-and-wordpress-integration#post-2792 Tue, 02 Jan 2007 09:48:39 +0000 spencerp 2792@http://bbpress.org/forums/ UPDATE: I just wanted to fill everyone in on what I have just done.. 1) I downloaded and installed the <a href="http://www.jameskelly.org/wordpress/plugins/styling-the-themed-login-and-registration-pages/">Themed Login and Registration</a> plugin for WordPress. 2) Upload it, then activate it as normal. OR, If you are running WordPress version 2.1-alpha3.. Before uploading and installing this plugin, open the themed-logreg.php file.. Find this line: require_once( ABSPATH . WPINC . '/registration-functions.php'); Change it to this: require_once( ABSPATH . WPINC . '/registration.php'); This is because in the 2.1-apha3 version, they just renamed some of the files in the wp-includes/ directory.. 3) I made a page called: Where To Since I have pretty permalinks on, the page's location is here for example: domain.net/where-to/ In the Where To page's Write Window, I added the following text/urls for example: "If you are seeing this page, you now have the ability to access the following places with your username and password. The <code><a href="wiki.yourdomain.net/">Codex</a></code>. The <code><a href="yourdomain.net/forums/">Forums</a></code>. The <code><a href="yourdomain.net/wp-admin/">Site Admin</a></code>. " 4) Under Plugins => Login Register Options => A) Under the: Uninstallation Options => I put check in box for: Toggle Complete Uninstall: B) Under the: Redirect After Login: => I changed wp-admin/ to where-to/ If you have the normal setup for the permalinks, (for me on localhost this worked): /?page_id=11 Of course, change the actual number to your own.. C) Under the: Redirect After Logout: => I left this one at: wp-login.php D) If you are using any other theme, then the "<a href="http://griffinopolis.com/blog/the-gathering-wordpress-theme/">Gathering</a>" theme, you might want to skip this section. And follow the directions for it, according to your theme's layout! Unless your sidebar call is like this.. in the index.php file: <code><?php get_header(); ?></code> <code><?php get_sidebar(); ?></code> Still in the Login Register Options, I left everything alone from there down TILL the part for the "Template Header Files: section.. D-1) Since I'm using the "<a href="http://griffinopolis.com/blog/the-gathering-wordpress-theme/">Gathering</a>" theme, the call for the sidebar, in the theme files is right after the header call. <code><?php get_header(); ?></code> <code><?php get_sidebar(); ?></code> D-2) In the Template Header Files: window, I made it like this: header.php sidebar.php D-3) In the Template After Header HTML: window, I made it like this: <code><?php get_header(); ?></code> <code><?php get_sidebar(); ?></code> <code><div id="maincontent"></code> D-4) In the Template Before Footer HTML: window, I made it like this: <code><?php endif; ?></code> <code></div></code> <code></code> <code></code> <code><?php get_footer(); ?></code> D-5) In the Template Footer Files: window, I made it like this: footer.php E) Scroll down to the User Email Template: window. Since he uses variables for his stuff.. here is what I used for mine, and it works because I got the email after doing a test sign up. :D Username: ##username## Password: ##password## You now have the ability to access any of the following locations with your username and password. The Site Admin ##siteurl##/wp-admin/ The Forums ##siteurl##/forums/ The Codex <a href="http://yourwiki.yourdomain.net" rel="nofollow">http://yourwiki.yourdomain.net</a> Please note: Of course... change the The Codex and Forums urls to whatever your's is.. example: ##siteurl##/my-forums-folder-name/ And for Codex/Wiki: <a href="http://yourdomain.net/yourwiki" rel="nofollow">http://yourdomain.net/yourwiki</a> or whatever.. Then I click the Update Options button.. :D ;) F) In my Theme's CSS File, I added the following CSS Style references: <code>#login {margin:0 auto 0 auto;width:250px;}</code> <code>#login ul {margin:0;padding:0;}</code> <code>#login ul li {display:inline;margin-left:10px;}</code> Everything seems to be working just fine!

Here's what I ended up doing.. 1) Edited the MediaWiki:Sidebar by adding in my own custom Register link, pointing to the Blog's register page. 2) Edited some of the MediaWiki: (Logouttext, Createaccount, some Login"whatever files", Nologin, Notloggedin, and maybe a few others) files - Removing all the "create account" references. So the "Login / Create Account" link was chopped down to just "Login".. same goes for the one found on the actual login page.. (Well.. as far as I know I got all them "Create Account" references lmao! 3) Replaced those "create account" words/calls with custom text saying "Please click on the register link in the sidebar. Once you've created an account through my blog's register page, you'll get an email with the details. Once registered, your username and password will allow you to login on the Codex." 4) Also, had added that little "hack" to hide the [Edit] link on the pages and stuff, if not logged in.. I had done this before even doing the above.. so.. as far as I know, I'm good to go for the Codex.. :) I'll just have customize the email that comes from the blog after they register there, and the same for the forums.. ;) I guess this is all I need, right people?
