WordPress phpBB integration without linking users

by

From 1.9.4 > this feature become option on plugin admin page.

Activate integration without linking users between WordPress and phpBB

It is possible to display Last Topics Widgets and Shortcodes to display phpBB Last Posts or Posts contents into WordPress Pages/Posts. It is also possible to use the template integration to display the phpBB forum into a WordPress page (also cross domain).

The plugin can be used in this state also to transfer/migrate users between phpBB and WordPress or viceversa.

  1. Hello,

    thank you for sharing this mod.

    Did I understand it correctly that the unlinked user installation have all main features of the plugin, so that I can transfer after it the users, they can log in in both phpbb and wordpress – if the user change the password or mail adress – will this synced between the both systems? Last topics can I use in wordpross.
    But I have to set a path to a config.php with credentials of phpBB and the users can’t use an single sign on – right?

    I use phpBB 3.0 for some reasons and the latest wordpress. So that should no problem, correctly?

    Thank you for your help 🙂

    Greats Thomas

  2. Hi there! because you do not completed procedure in one of these ways:
    1) no file iframeResizer.contentWindow.min.js added into phpBB root
    2) no correct js modifications on overall_footer.html js added code
    3) not recompiled phpBB template after modifications

    p.s but in your case i’ve look into output and:
    you edited the page-forum.php?
    because it seem to me lack of something.
    Send me via pm your custom page forum or post into forum, i will take a look.
    You done ok phpBB side, but the page forum not add the main resizer js file as i’ve see.
    That should be loaded on page by page-forum.php

    1. thank you for your replay.
      I haven’t done the (page-forum) thing. I don’t really understand what to do, could you please tell me what I should to exactly.

  3. EDITED Some of this discussion replies have been removed.
    I’ve follow looking on code for some other reason and i remembered this issue and i think you experienced the problem just because:
    you didn’t setup/build forum page on plugin admin, that is a mandatory step as explained on iframe procedure. Even if you add manually the page forum into your WP template folder, you need to create/setup the name you assign to this page into the setting on plugin admin page, OR the code will not fire the necessary function that add the resizer library on header. That i assume was the problem in this case. Cheers.
