@_ck_:

A note on deep integration: As of 0.9.0.4, deep integration will break the localization due to the localization methods being used from WP’s core files (bb_settings.php line 75), causing the system to look for bbPress-language files in the WP language directory. Here’s what to fix to make bbPress load it’s own language files from bb_includes/languages when using deep integration:

In line 376-377 of bb-settings.php, replace

// Load the default text localization domain.

load_default_textdomain();

with

// Load the default text localization domain.

if ( !(defined('DB_NAME')) ) {  // Include localization the bbPress-way when WP is not running.

load_default_textdomain();

}

else {

$locale = get_locale();

$mofile = BB_LANG_DIR . "$locale.mo";



load_textdomain('default', $mofile);

};

I stuck the code into bbPress in login-form.php, but it didn’t work.

There’s a form on the WordPress side of things, in my WordPress header… I thought maybe that needed to be changed as well? It posts into the bbpress auth…

[_ck_]

You can do a similar hack on the wordpress side too, except it’s easier because wordpress doesn’t need a referer , you just do it in the url.

ie.

wp-login.php?redirect_to=<?php echo $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; ?>

[chrishajer]

This does not go in any WordPress files at all. It goes in your bbPress login-form.php template file, right before the closing </form> tag. That way, after submitting the form, bbPress directs the user back where they came from (all those SERVER VARIABLES in the code snippet.) I thought this did exactly what you were looking for. Where did you try to insert the code?

[chrishajer]

Sorry, I thought you said you were routing all the logins through bb-login.php – this *is* bbPress code. Where do you need to use the code? What are you trying to do again?

You’re sending all your users through bbPress for login, but when a blog user gets sent to the forum for login, they’re not returned to the page they were on, but to the forum front page? Is that accurate?

[johnhiler]

Ah it looks like that code is for bbPress… it has a reference to bb_get_option in it:

<input type=”hidden” name=”re” value=”<?php echo “http://&#8221;.$_SERVER.$_SERVER[“REQUEST_URI”].’?’.$_SERVER[“QUERY_STRING”]; ?>” />

<input type=”hidden” name=”_wp_http_referer” value=”<?php echo bb_get_option( ‘uri’ ) ?>” />

If I stick it into a WordPress template for my header.php file, it crashes… any ideas how to make it work in WordPress?

[johnhiler]

Ah that looks really promising – I’ll try it out! Thanks so much.

[johnhiler]

I’ve integrated my WordPress (2.5) install with my bbPress (0.9) install… and have the signin for both routing through the bbPress bb-login.php.

There are signin fields at the top of every page:

* http://www.weddingbee.com (the WordPress blog)

* http://boards.weddingbee.com (the bbPress forum, on a subdomain)

When users signin to a page on the boards, they stay on whatever page they are on. However… when user signin through the blog… they get sent to boards.weddingbee.com (the bbPress install frontpage). This annoys some users, because they have to navigate back to whatever blog page they were on in order to comment.

I looked at the bb-login code, and there seem to be references to keeping track of the referer and redirecting using redirect_to. Does anyone know how to use those, so that when my users sign into a page… they stay on that page, rather than being redirected to the boards frontpage?

Sorry to bump this topic, but I’m new to BBpress and after a long search on Google and in these forums, I arrived here.

I want to do the same as on this picture: this picture.

Unfortunately, I can’t get it to work on my forum. I posted the code of front-page.php below and emphasized the problem point (I think). I hope somebody can help me

<?php endwhile; ?>

I hope somebody can help me.

Thanks in advance..

You’ll need to change this one:

#latest tr, #forumlist tr, #favorites tr {behavior:url("/forums/my-templates/kakumei-too/images/hoverlite.htc");}

[biodrama]

Thanks, Chris. Since I am getting registration emails to moderate, I am guessing register.php is the more likely route, but I am not a coder, and really appreciate your suggestions. Also, I just checked, and I was already running the Human Test plugin.

[chrishajer]

Yes.

Or just replace register.php with

<?php

// silence is golden

?>

You should look in your logs though to see where they are coming in. Sometimes they go right to bb-login.php as well. Anything related to login really. They’re not sitting there browsing the forum and clicking the [login] button.

You can also install _ck_’s Human Test plugin to prevent most of the registrations:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/human-test/

[chrishajer]

The problem is not that they SUPPORT PHP4, it’s that you WANT PHP5. Add this to your .htaccess if you’re at 1&1.

AddType x-mapp-php5 .php

That will force *.php files to be processed by PHP5. That should resolve the problem for you.

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

Finally got it working using _ck_’s plugin. Now I want the same login sync with my custom php pages. Any pointers regarding what I should be doing? I think I will need the code used in _ck_’s plugin and the bbPress core file. Am I right?

[diabolikal]

Hey guys, I’m getting the same problem, and my hosting is 1&1 and I’m sure they support PHP4. It is in my subfolder of the domain,

Help!

Hello Kevin!

Thanks for your reply!

I did a clean install of WP 2.7 and then I activated Ann’s plugin.

Then I added the code those three lines in wp-config.php and lost access to dashboard.

Redirect Loop

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

The browser has stopped trying to retrieve the requested item. The site is redirecting the request in a way that will never complete.

* Have you disabled or blocked cookies required by this site?

* NOTE: If accepting the site’s cookies does not resolve the problem, it is likely a server configuration issue and not your computer.

I am currently testing on localhost (XAMPP). Any idea what is causing this loop? May be I need to edit those lines but I dont know how to.

I had to delete the plugin from the plugin directory to access dashboard again.

I would not think of going beyond WP 2.7 unless I am unable to achieve the sync. And regarding the Open ID integration, I would like to keep myself away from it as I need to allow only registered users to login.

X-Powered-By: PHP/4.4.9

Are you using PHP4? I thought that was the source of this problem.

What version did you install?

[kevinjohngallagher]

Hi Ashfame,

First: i feel your pain in integrating WP2.7.1 and 0.9, i’m sure alot of us do – that said though, it’s definitely possible.

Second: it’s definitely possible to achieve site wide login using either _ck_ or Ann’s plugins. Without a doubt using _ck_’s is far easier, as Ann’s comes with no documentation and there are steps required that no-one’s written out. It took me about an hour of searching and playing with Ann’s to get it to work, but once it did, it worked brilliantly.

Basically follow the steps given on the 3rd page of the integration forum posts (hey dont expect documentation for something a sought after as this to be on an actual page – like the integration one – or even at the start of a post so it’s easily found). Then add in

define(‘COOKIEPATH’, ‘/’ );

define(‘SITECOOKIEPATH’, ‘/’);

define(‘COOKIE_DOMAIN’, ”);

to both the WP and BB configs. Obviously you can change the values.

The other thing that really helped me, after alot of trial and error, was to set up WordPress first. Activate Ann’s plugin. It then automatically boots you our of the WP admin area. you have to go to/wp-login.php?action=logout and then entirely clear your cache and cookies.

Then re-log in. The cookie WP sets will now be recognisable.

Install BB AFTER this step to make life alot easier; as bbpress will recognise the admin cookie right form the word go

Third: Ann’s method overwrites the ‘new’ wordpress cookie method, so the theory is that it’s future proof. at least throughout this WP2.7 branch. The bad news is, according to an automattic post i read yesterday, that the OpenID integration in WP2.8 may require a rewrite of all authentication in WordPress. If this happens then there is a good chance that all authentication in Automattic systems will have tot change, there’s just no way of future proofing against a company wide re-write. But if that doesn’t happen, then Ann’s plugin should work for a long time.

Fourth: A the risk of reading form the _ck_ bible, there’s very little reason across the board to upgrade from WP2.5.1 to WP2.7.1 . There are no known security issues in 2.5.1. I’ve yet to come across a WP plugin that doesn’t work for 2.5.1, it’s a damn site easier to use, and it’s faster and more lightweight. Obviously, you may have different requirements that we don’t know about, but I would look long and hard at not using 2.7.1 if i were you.

Good luck, Kev

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

I tried integrating them but messed up a lot. So trying a different approach what I want to achieve in my project.

I need WP as CMS, bbPress as forum script and custom php code which will create a member’s area. I want site-wide login sync.

Tried _ck_’s plugin but can’t make it to working even after using 0.0.3 version and I dont want to use Ann’s method of downgrading cookie of what WP 2.7.1 uses. Just because this project won’t be under me for long, so will opt a method which is more future proof. So I am thinking of directing all the login requests of WP & bbPress to my custom login page which will be the only means of login & logout on the site. I want to use plugins for both WP & bbPress so as to maintain future compatibility. I can always update those custom codes or can i have a plugin for that too.

I may be running wild here but it seems quite easily feasible too.

Waiting for your suggestions!

For reloading Apache after installing php5-mysql, you might end up doing this on CentOS:

sudo /sbin/service apache2 restart

or

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

or even

sudo /usr/sbin/apache2ctl graceful

One of those should restart the apache2 daemon.

[chrishajer]

On CentOS, you probably want rpm or the yum front end to it. Try this:

yum install php5-mysql

Maybe you need sudo in front of that command, depending on your system configuration. In that case sudo yum install php5-mysql.

That should install the package for you on CentOS.
