The phpBB to WordPress way

The faster, easy and secure

WordPress phpBB 2.4.0 > integration by email

Note: follow this instead, if you want to integrate, configuring the WordPress to phpBB integration way.

WP W3ALL 2.4.0>WP to phpBB – INSTALL and HOW TO

The difference between this way to integrate, respect the WordPress to phpBB way, is mainly one: update changes done by users or admins into their phpBB profiles, are updated into WordPress for the same user, when the same user will visit the WordPress side as logged user in phpBB , or when will login in the WordPress side. Because this is a WordPress plugin (along next 2.4.0> releases, may a phpBB extension will be provided that will allow a complete update at mean time integration in the phpBB to WordPress way, adding or updating users in WordPress at mean time when updates occur in phpBB side). It is possible to use redirects tricks: if you want to force user addition into WordPress when user register OR login in phpBB using redirects tricks check this:
Add user into WordPress when register OR login in phpBB side

The other important thing that you need to consider, integrating in the phpBB to WordPress way, so where you’ll leave users to update their email and register only in phpBB, is that since the integration works by email, if you let users login in WordPress also, this is the case where the plugin may works as unexpected, because when searching for user by email on WP login action, and the email has been changed in phpBB, there is no way to check a match for the same user if usernames/email pairs mismatch. The user could so try to login by username, and will work if username match, but if it mismatch (the integration works by email, but try to check for username in this case, when a match not found by email) and phpBB usernames with forbidden WP characters have been may added in WP after removing those forbidden chars, so (also) the username will not match OR will match the username of some other user!

Consider that if you let users login in WordPress side in this scenario, an user that change his email in phpBB, then come to login into WordPress using email (because you allow users to login also in WP) the user will not be able to login by email, but only by username until a login not executed (that will cause so the email to be updated, based on username) and if username match. For the same reason, usernames on both phpBB and WordPress needs to match in this case.

In the phpBB to WordPress way you so choose to let users to Login, Register, Update Password in phpBB side BUT if managing an integration where mismatching usernames exists in some case, you SHOULD SO (it is REQUIRED in this case) LEAVE USERS to Register and update their email ONLY IN WordPress.

Note that it is not mandatory to transfer old phpBB users into WordPress when integration start, anyway there is a transfer option on plugin admin that you can activate to transfer old phpBB users into WordPress. Note also that as admin, if you want to change an email for an user at mean time also in WordPress when you change it may via phpBB ACP, you’ll have to do the same for the same user in WordPress, or until the same user will not visits the WP side, you’ll not see the same update in WordPress.

Consider that as WordPress admin, you could see that so in phpBB there are users that are still not existent in WordPress. The reason is the above explained when using the plugin in the phpBB to WordPress way.

This mode to integrate, phpBB to WordPress way, require as MANDATORY to disable user’s registration in WordPress and avoid user’s email change in WordPress. It is your task to not allow user’s registration and email update in WordPress side.

About the way on how phpBB usernames containing forbidden and not allowed characters into WordPress, are added or transferred into WordPress since 2.4.0> read this post:

phpBB usernames with forbidden characters in WordPress

Disable registration in WordPress, and be sure that users are NOT allowed to change/update password in WordPress.

Said all that, you need to follow same instructions, configuring phpBB and WordPress, as explained on WP to phpBB help, where

To Install and Configure

FOLLOW THESE STEPS

wordpress-phpbb-integration/#installAndConfig

Follow phpBB Side and WordPress Side steps on that page, and remember (again) that it is your task to avoid user’s email update, and registration in WordPress, configuring based on all said above the integration in the phpBB to WordPress way.

wp_w3all responsive iframe procedure

WordPress phpBB iframe template integration

MEMO: to update to latest v4 code, you’ll need to rebuild page-forum.php (or whatever you named it) via plugin admin, OR manually substitute it into your active WP template folder, with the new one that you find/copy into /wp-content/plugins/wp-w3all-phpbb-integration/addons. You’ll need to update also the iframeResizer.contentWindow.min.js file you added into phpBB root, with the new one you find into /wp-content/plugins/wp-w3all-phpbb-integration/addons/resizer folder. Done this, substitute the phpBB overall_header.html and overall_footer.html code (re-adding needed values) with the new v4 code here below. Do not forget to rebuild phpBB template to make phpBB template modifications take effect.

WP_w3all template integration steps

After you built/create the WP forum template page via option
WP_w3all phpBB embedded on WordPress Template
on WP_w3all admin config page, and the blank page on WordPress Admin -> Pages -> Add New, titled the same of created wp_w3all template page, so forum or board etc (then you’ll have into your active WordPress template folder a file named page-forum.php or page-board.php etc), to complete the procedure and get the responsive iframe height for the embedded/iframed phpBB into WordPress template page you need:

overall_footer.html code

Open with a text editor your phpBB template file overall_footer.html

and just before the closing </body> tag, add this code (do not select rows numbers on copied code):

var w3all_scroll_top = 100; // To fit your theme header distance: change this value (pixels). This is the distance you want to scroll to by the WordPress Top header. The forum Top distance gap.

change localhost to fit your domain name (example axew3.com)
do NOT add http(s):// OR the point in front nor anything else, just add
yourdomain.com or set it as localhost if on localhost test. If phpBB is at subdomain.domain.com, add domain.com as value
(MANDATORY!) or resizer won’t work
now check the other line to change:

var wordpress_url_page_forum = 'https://localhost/wp53/forum'; // MANDATORY! (DO NOT INCLUDE final slash here) Url that point to your wordpress forum page (without final slash)

1	var wordpress_url_page_forum = 'https://localhost/wp53/forum'; // MANDATORY! (DO NOT INCLUDE final slash here) Url that point to your wordpress forum page (without final slash)

change value
https://localhost/wp53/forum
on this line, to point to the URL of the WordPress created/named forum page (do not add final slash and change http or https as needed)
MANDATORY!

Finally, check this line

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://localhost/phpBB/iframeResizer.contentWindow.min.js" defer></script>

1	<script type="text/javascript" src="https://localhost/phpBB/iframeResizer.contentWindow.min.js" defer></script>

in the code you added (last line): this should correctly point to the iframeResizer.contentWindow.min.js file that you’ll go to add into phpBB root folder. You need to use the absolute URL (use http or https as needed, and adjust the url to fit your needs)
(MANDATORY!) or resizer won’t work

src="https://www.yoursite.com/your-phpbb-folder/iframeResizer.contentWindow.min.js"

1	src="https://www.yoursite.com/your-phpbb-folder/iframeResizer.contentWindow.min.js"

AFTER EDITED, save and load the modified overall_footer.html into your phpBB style folder, overwriting the default one, and so

load through ftp on the phpBB root folder (or copy/paste), the file
iframeResizer.contentWindow.min.js
that is contained inside folder
wp/wp-content/plugins/wp-w3all-phpbb-integration/addons/resizer

After this, phpBB require to recompile the template, or modifications to template files not affect (to overall_footer.html in this case). Open phpBB ACP, and so under:

Server Configuration -> Load settings -> Recompile stale style components set to YES and save. Load one time a phpBB full forum page. Leave as is at moment, especially if you follow adding also the code on overall_header.html (more below) to redirect any phpBB direct URL to the iframed WP page: then after tested that all work fine, return to ACP, and reset to NO and save. This step is needed to load the template modifications on phpBB (and any time you edit a phpBB template file to for modifications take effect), but this option should be ever set to NO into an online/production site to save server resources. It is normally set to yes only for testing/devel purpose or to apply modifications on phpBB templates files.

overall_header.html code

The new V4 w3all iframe code do not use anymore htaccess to force redirects, but use pure Javascript (reload) code, that as you may imagine, lead to some different result: you’ll not have to edit phpBB notification links on phpBB notification files as on V1 or V2 code, to force users redirect to iframe when they click (for example) on notification email link or some other forum’s link. But in this case, any user except bots, will be redirected (as code is, but it can be easily changed to assume different behaviors, may excluding admins or moderators etc) to the WP iframed page, if the forum accessed via real phpBB url.

If you want phpBB email notification links or any phpBB direct url to be redirected to the wp iframed forum page follow this step:

Open with a text editor your phpBB template file overall_header.html

and just immediately after this code (or by the way, just before the closing tag </head>)

All working!?

Reset to No the Recompile phpBB template option, here we go!

NOTE: if you added the code above into phpBB overall_header.html then you’ll never activate (it is not active by default) this part of the code you added into the overall_footer.html:

$( "a" ).contextmenu(function() {
 var ohref = $(this).attr("href");
 var href = this.href; // treath like an external because only open New tab or New window
  d = w3allNormalize_phpBBUrl(href);
  hrefEnc = window.btoa(unescape(encodeURIComponent(d)));
  href1 =  wordpress_url_page_forum + '/?w3=' + hrefEnc;  
    
  $(this).attr("href", href1); // send out encoded
  $(this).mouseleave(function() { // reset (replaced 'mouseup')
  $(this).attr("href", ohref);
  });
});

$( "a" ).contextmenu(function() {

var ohref = $(this).attr("href");

var href = this.href; // treath like an external because only open New tab or New window

d = w3allNormalize_phpBBUrl(href);

hrefEnc = window.btoa(unescape(encodeURIComponent(d)));

href1 = wordpress_url_page_forum + '/?w3=' + hrefEnc;

$(this).attr("href", href1); // send out encoded

$(this).mouseleave(function() { // reset (replaced 'mouseup')

$(this).attr("href", ohref);

});

P.s – whenever you want: to get the iframe responsive for ACP phpBB admin panel, read this post. My (personal) suggestion is to stop here and try to use the integration leaving ACP out of iframe joke. If by the way you want to follow, before to apply then you’ll have to little change the above code for overall_footer.html and overall_header.html in this way:

on code for overall_footer.html remove this part:

if( /\/adm\//ig.exec(href) !== null ){ 
e.preventDefault(); 
window.open(href,'_blank'); 
return; 
}

if( /\/adm\//ig.exec(href) !== null ){

e.preventDefault();

window.open(href,'_blank');

return;

}

on code for overall_header.html remove this part:

if ((window.self !== window.top) != true) { //(or get loop) 
if(/adm\//ig.exec(window.location.href) === null){ // avoid x ACP 
var w3all_r = window.location.href.replace(/sid=.+/gi, ''); 
w3all_r = w3all0Normalize_phpBBUrl(w3all_r); 
hrefEnc = window.btoa(unescape(encodeURIComponent(w3all_r))); 
href0 = wordpress_url_page_f + '/?w3=' + hrefEnc; document.location.replace(href0); }} 
// END force w3all to iframe redirect

if ((window.self !== window.top) != true) { //(or get loop)

if(/adm\//ig.exec(window.location.href) === null){ // avoid x ACP

var w3all_r = window.location.href.replace(/sid=.+/gi, '');

w3all_r = w3all0Normalize_phpBBUrl(w3all_r);

hrefEnc = window.btoa(unescape(encodeURIComponent(w3all_r)));

href0 = wordpress_url_page_f + '/?w3=' + hrefEnc; document.location.replace(href0); }}

// END force w3all to iframe redirect

change into:

if ((window.self !== window.top) != true) { //(or get loop) 
w3all_r = window.location.href.replace(/sid=.+/gi, ''); 
w3all_r = w3all0Normalize_phpBBUrl(w3all_r); 
hrefEnc = window.btoa(unescape(encodeURIComponent(w3all_r))); 
href0 = wordpress_url_page_f + '/?w3=' + hrefEnc; document.location.replace(href0); } 
// END force w3all to iframe redirect

if ((window.self !== window.top) != true) { //(or get loop)

w3all_r = window.location.href.replace(/sid=.+/gi, '');

w3all_r = w3all0Normalize_phpBBUrl(w3all_r);

hrefEnc = window.btoa(unescape(encodeURIComponent(w3all_r)));

href0 = wordpress_url_page_f + '/?w3=' + hrefEnc; document.location.replace(href0); }

WP_w3all phpBB PM into WordPress shortcode version 1.0

check all others shortcodes listed under the “common how” to section

The [w3allphpbbupm] shortcode just display phpBB Private Messages count into a div, which html output result will be by default like this:

<div id="w3pm_id" class="w3pm_class"><a href="https://localhost/wp51/phpBB3/ucp.php?i=pm&folder=inbox">You have 1 unread forum PM</a></div>

To display this way, you’ll add the shortcode as is: [w3allphpbbupm]

To change attributes class name, id or to get a element link with target _blank or to add inline style to the div element, arguments that are possible to pass are:

'w3pm_class' => 'w3pm_class', 'w3pm_id' => 'w3pm_id', 'w3pm_inline_style' => '', 'w3pm_href_blank' => ''

[w3allphpbbupm w3pm_class="myclass" w3pm_id="myid" w3pm_inline_style="padding:10px;border:1px solid grey;" w3pm_href_blank="1"]

w3pm_class and w3pm_id are setup by default with same name as value for the id and class div’s element attributes if not passed as arguments, others two w3pm_inline_style and w3pm_href_blank simply not affect if not passed.

To get target="_blank" , pass as on example the w3pm_href_blank="1" argument

BUGREPORT - Last topics widget
Hello,
I found two problems related to the last topic widget. I used this widget in iframe mode. Links look like this:
CODE:
```
 <a id="w3all0433256" onmouseover="w3allIframeHref('w3all0433256','https://svetelektro.com/index.php/phpbb/?forum_id=20&amp;topic_id=55602&amp;post_id=777683#p777683');" href="https://svetelektro.com/index.php/phpbb/?forum_id=20&amp;topic_id=55602&amp;post_id=777683#p777683">
```
1) sometimes homepage load stops on this widget - it seems like PHP waits to SQL query. I can debug it more if you help me with this.
2) clicking on the link sometimes redirect me to the forum homepage, instead of the required forum topic - but links are OK

Thank you

Integration has stopped working
Hi

The integration on our site has stopped working suddenly 24 hours ago. Users now can not login to the Wordpress site using their existing passwords, but can login to the forum.

I logged in as WP admin and changed the password of one user who's details I know, and now they can login to the WP site but they have to log in separately to the forum.

Nothing changed and this started happening suddenly.

Any ideas please?

Thanks
Jon

iPhone 13 Pro's 120Hz display limits some third-party app animations to 60Hz
With this year’s iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max, Apple finally brought its ProMotion display technology from the iPad Pro over to some of its phones. The feature allows the new high-end iPhones to refresh screen content up to 120 times per second, thereby creating a much smoother interface experience. The effect is most noticeable when scrolling, but almost every aspect of a UI can benefit from a higher refresh rate.

Am I correct in seeing that UIView.animateWithDuration APIs aren't clocked at 120Hz on iPhone 13? On UIScrollView, system ones, and Metal by the looks of it, rest is still 60Hz? pic.twitter.com/t3MeM9cj0E

— Christian Selig (@ChristianSelig) September 24, 2021

Unfortunately, it looks like the iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max limit their ProMotion displays in one notable context. According to reports spotted by 9to5Mac, the phones cap some animations in third-party apps to 60Hz. Scrolling and full-screen transitions render as expected but other animations do not. The effect is apparently jarring. What makes it worse is that it’s not something you’ll see when using any software from Apple; the iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max do not enforce that same limitation on the company’s apps.

What makes the situation particularly confusing is that the iPad Pro does not have a similar limit. It has treated first- and third-party apps equally since it was released in 2017. A source told 9to5Mac the iPhone’s implementation may have something to do with battery life considerations. At the very least, code in iOS 15 suggests the limitation isn’t a bug. Either way, we’ve reached out to Apple for more information, and we’ll update this article when we hear back from the company.
Yahoo is building a new calendar app with help from the creator of Sunrise
Mention the name of Sunrise to a select demographic of nerds and you’re likely to elicit a visceral reaction. Before Microsoft purchased the calendar software in 2015 and shut it down about a year later, it was one of those apps people loved to praise. Thoughtful design and features helped it differentiate itself and earn a passionate fanbase in a crowded market that was dominated by heavyweights like GCal.

But then Microsoft shut down the app and fans were left to look elsewhere, with almost no alternative coming in to fill the void. But the good news is something similar could be on the way. Yahoo (Engadget’s parent company) is working on a standalone calendar app called Day. We know, not the most exciting sell, but stay with us.

According to TechCrunch, the company has recruited Jeremy Le Van, one of the co-founders of Sunrise, to help design the software. What’s more, the company has reportedly granted Le Van’s team the freedom to develop the software independent of other Yahoo properties. In its current iteration, the app apparently doesn’t feature any Yahoo branding or integrations. Moreover, the plan is to make it into something that can integrate with whatever email client and other tools people use.

Obviously, we’ll have to see what the final product looks like, but even if Day is only half as good as Sunrise it will make the calendar conversation more interesting.
Twitter now lets you add topics to Spaces, but the options are limited
Twitter is adding yet another feature to make Spaces more discoverable. On Friday, the company announced the addition of Topics. As the name suggests, they’re essentially pre-defined tags you can use to help like-minded individuals find your audio rooms. You can add up to three Topics to a Space. Some of the ones you can use currently include "entertainment," "world news" and "gaming."

new in Spaces: Topics!

when creating or scheduling a Space, some of you on Android can choose up to 3 Topics to tag it with from a list of our top 10 Topics. BUT it’s only 10 Topics for now and we’ll expand as we build together

English only (also for now!), iOS soon pic.twitter.com/6PfbZtwWMH

— Spaces (@TwitterSpaces) September 24, 2021

At launch, the feature is somewhat limited. It’s only available to select Android users, there are only 10 total Topics to choose from and Topics only work in English. However, Twitter said iOS support is coming soon, and that it will expand the number of available Topics “as we build together.”

Like the API v2 update the company announced back in August, it’s safe to say Twitter’s hope here is to encourage greater use of Spaces by making it easier to find audio rooms, particularly the ones that align with your interests.
NFL reportedly wants Apple to be the next home for Sunday Ticket
The NFL's long-standing Sunday Ticket partnership with DirecTV is coming to an end, following an eight-year agreement the two reached in 2014. The viewing package is probably on the move and the league has reportedly picked its preferred new home for Sunday Ticket: Apple.

It doesn't seem likely that DirecTV, which has been one of the NFL's main TV partners for nearly three decades, will renew its deal. The NFL is looking for north of $2 billion per year for Sunday Ticket rights, according to The Athletic, which is at least $500 million more than the satellite company is currently paying the league.

DirecTV has long been losing money on the package. It needs 5 million Sunday Ticket subscribers to cover the current fees, though CNBC reported the figure has been closer to 2 million on average. Combined with a sense that the NFL is diluting Sunday Ticket's value by shifting more games to other days, that doesn't exactly make reupping the deal an attractive proposition for DirecTV and parent company AT&T.

As such, potential suitors with deeper pockets appear to be stepping up. Apple, Disney/ESPN and Amazon, which will start streaming Thursday Night Football games on Prime Video next season, are among those who have reportedly shown interest.

It'll likely be several months before the Sunday Ticket bidding process is over, but Apple looks like the frontrunner. The Athletic reports that Apple is considering offering games on a more ad-hoc basis. It could let fans buy their own team's out-of-market games or even shell out for standalone games.

One factor in Amazon's favor is it has more experience than Apple when it comes to live sports. The company has streamed New York Yankees, Seattle Sounders, WNBA and some NFL games, as well as ATP tennis events.
Netflix's stylish 'Kate: Collateral Damage' heads to Steam on October 22nd
Netflix’s recent foray into video games continues. On Friday, the company announced the existence of Kate: Collateral Damage. Like Eden Unearthed, the VR experience we saw make the media rounds earlier in the week, the new game is a tie-in to a recently released Netflix original. In this case, it’s here to promote the release of action thriller Kate, which stars Mary Elizabeth Winstead as a deadly assassin.

Netflix describes Kate: Collateral Damage as an time-attack, action roguelike. If you’ve played games like Hotline Miami and Katana Zero, you have a good idea of the setup. Each enemy in Kate: Collateral Damage only takes a single hit or two to dispatch, but the same is true of your character.

Much like in the movie, Kate is poisoned by a substance called Polonium 204, leaving her with only 24 hours to live. How that plays out in the game is that the more efficiently you can take out enemies, the more time you’ll have to complete a run. Since most firearms have limited ammo, you’ll also need to get creative and adapt your tactics to the moment.

The clock is ticking, you have 24 hours and ONLY revenge on your mind. 🔥 KATE: COLLATERAL DAMAGE is coming to Steam on October 22nd. pic.twitter.com/8HHGqty3GS

Kate: Collateral Damage arrives on Steam on October 22nd. You can wishlist the game today.

Shorcode: RSS feeds into WordPress

WP_w3all phpBB WordPress 1.9.7 >

WP_w3all feed version 1.0

check all others shortcodes listed under the “common how” to section

Note that substantially this shortcode can substitute with easy all others old phpBB last topics shortcodes. It can retrieve any kind of posts/topics list and display as more like using style/classes or inline style. Follow read more below …

Note: this shortcode work ok also if a valid path to a phpBB config.php file has not been setup and the plugin result as not activated (RED text) on plugin admin page

Note also that this shortcode as it is coded, like the related WP hook, caches results for 12 hours by default

Look two raw examples

As basic default the shortcode feeds, that can point to a phpBB generated feed OR to any other valid feed resource, need to be used like this:

[w3allfeed w3feed_url="https://www.axew3.com/www/phpBB3/feed.php?f=2"]

1	[w3allfeed w3feed_url="https://www.axew3.com/www/phpBB3/feed.php?f=2"]

The example of feed to retrieve is here for phpBB, but it’s possible to use any valid feed URL to display feeds from any resource. Check some feed example to grab here http://simplepie.org/demo/ or any other you want and use into the shortcode like this:

[w3allfeed w3feed_url="http://engadget.com/rss.xml" w3feed_items_num="10"]

1	[w3allfeed w3feed_url="http://engadget.com/rss.xml" w3feed_items_num="10"]

here as example the w3feed_items_num attribute limit to 10 items to retrieve and display from the RSS source:

w3feed_items_num="10"

1	w3feed_items_num="10"

To display phpBB posts feeds styled, there are some more attribute that is possible to use except the default 2 above explained:

// intval(num of words) is may only for phpBB posts
w3feed_text_words[0|intval(num of words)|content] 

w3feed_items_num
 
w3feed_ul_class
w3feed_li_class
w3feed_inline_style
w3feed_href_blank

// intval(num of words) is may only for phpBB posts

w3feed_text_words[0|intval(num of words)|content]

w3feed_items_num

w3feed_ul_class

w3feed_li_class

w3feed_inline_style

w3feed_href_blank

using all together, look this example, that not contain the w3feed_text_words attribute, in which, one possible value to use, is may reserved (may not) to phpBB news/last post RSS, and explained separately more below:

[w3allfeed w3feed_url="https://www.axew3.com/w3/forums/feed.php?mode=news" w3feed_items_num="12" w3feed_inline_style="list-style:none;" w3feed_href_blank="1" w3feed_ul_class="myexampleClassXUL" w3feed_li_class="myexampleClassXLI"]

1	[w3allfeed w3feed_url="https://www.axew3.com/w3/forums/feed.php?mode=news" w3feed_items_num="12" w3feed_inline_style="list-style:none;" w3feed_href_blank="1" w3feed_ul_class="myexampleClassXUL" w3feed_li_class="myexampleClassXLI"]

the attribute w3feed_ul_class=”myexampleClassXUL” will assign class name myexampleClassXUL to the wrapper element ul. w3feed_li_class do the same for nested li assigning myexampleClassXLI to all li elements of this feed.

adding w3feed_href_blank=”1″ will cause that links elements <a> that point to topics or links to authors will include/output with the html attribute target=”_blank”

w3feed_inline_style attribute can be used to inject inline style into each li element. Note that by the way it has been tested without using special chars on it, so that special characters may need to be properly escaped to be used in this case.

It’s possible to assign different classes and display each shortcode feeds output, ul and li elements, styled as it need to be or/and as more like.

Here you can see examples for phpBB to retrieve feeds: forums news, all forums, single forum, single topic and more, plus advanced features:

https://www.phpbb.com/support/docs/en/3.1/kb/article/faq-phpbb-atom-feeds/

The w3feed_text_words=”numOfWords” attribute is may reserved to be used only for phpBB posts feeds, while the 0 (zero) and content values are ok to be used on any other feed, not only phpBB:

0 | num of words | content

if omitted w3feed_text_words=”content” is the default behavior/result, that will return all the content of the post or feed item, changing nothing on output.

while adding an integer value, as example 30, so, w3feed_text_words=”30″ will cause that firsts 30 post’s words will display, and the default Statistics: phpBB text on output removed, while will be maintained all the rest, and the result will be something like:

Post Title
Post Content
Posted by axew3 — Sat Mar 09, 2019 12:04 am

w3feed_text_words=”numOfWords” int value can may also be used for any feed and not only for phpBB posts, but check before that the result is what you expect to be.

Using 0 (zero), so w3feed_text_words=”0″ , will cause that only topic’s titles links will display.

Except the mandatory w3feed_url attribute, any of the attributes can be mixed, applied or not applied, on each shortcode feed.

This procedure assume you installed the wp_w3all WordPress phpBB integration plugin (in linked or not linked users mode) into WordPress, and phpBB mChat into your phpBB. At date of this post, the code as is can be applied by anyone, but this is a raw procedure may easy to be changed by advanced users. Work fine, but to optimize at best for your site, you may have to change something on the little javascript code you’ll add as explained on install steps. You can see the concept and code to apply available here:

after you pasted this code into phpBB overall_footer.html

1	document.domain = 'axew3.com'; // THIS IS MANDATORY! Set/Change this value to your domain (example: axew3.com (or set localhost if on localhost))

change axew3.com to fit your domain name (example axew3.com)
do NOT add http(s):// OR the point in front nor anything else, just add
yourdomain.com or set it as localhost if on localhost test. If phpBB is at subdomain.domain.com, add domain.com as value
(MANDATORY!) or resizer won’t work
now check the other line to change:

var wordpress_url_page_forum = 'https://www.axew3.com/w3/forum'; // MANDATORY! (DO NOT INCLUDE final slash here) Url that point to your wordpress forum page (without final slash)

1	var wordpress_url_page_forum = 'https://www.axew3.com/w3/forum'; // MANDATORY! (DO NOT INCLUDE final slash here) Url that point to your wordpress forum page (without final slash)

change value
https://www.axew3.com/w3/forum
on this line, to point to the URL of the WordPress created/named forum page (do not add final slash and change http or https as needed)
MANDATORY!

Finally, check this line

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.axew3.com/phpBB/iframeResizer.contentWindow.min.js" defer></script>

1	<script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.axew3.com/phpBB/iframeResizer.contentWindow.min.js" defer></script>

1	src="https://www.yoursite.com/your-phpbb-folder/iframeResizer.contentWindow.min.js"

AFTER EDITED, save and load the modified overall_footer.html into your phpBB style folder, overwriting the default one, and so

After this, phpBB require to recompile the template, or modifications to template files not affect (to overall_footer.html in this case). Open phpBB ACP, and so under:

Server Configuration -> Load settings -> Recompile stale style components set to YES and save. Load one time a phpBB full forum page. Leave as is at moment, especially if you follow adding also the code on overall_header.html (more below) to redirect any phpBB direct URL to the iframed WP page: then after tested that all work fine, may return to ACP, and reset to NO and save. This step is needed to load the template modifications on phpBB (and any time you edit a phpBB template file to for modifications take effect), but this option should be ever set to NO into an online/production site to save server resources. It is normally set to yes only for testing/devel purpose or to apply modifications on phpBB templates files.

Notification email links to point to iframe: follow read more below for the pure Javascript solution. Refer to v2 or v1 code for htaccess or js solution editing phpBB notifications files.

The new V3 w3all iframe code do not use anymore htaccess to force redirect as on V1 code, and substantially not rewrite URLs forcing redirect to iframe, but use pure Javascript (reload) code, that as you may imagine, lead to some different result: you’ll not have to edit phpBB notification links on phpBB notification files as on V1 or V2 code, to force users redirect to iframe when they click on notification email link. But in this case, any user except bots, will be redirected (as code is, but it can be easily changed to assume different behaviors, may excluding admins or moderators etc) to the WP iframed page, if the forum accessed via real phpBB url.

To apply same smooth scroll effect as it is on this online example, after finished with this procedure, follow with this steps:

Smooth scroll for phpBB WordPress template integration (iframe v3)

If you want phpBB email notification links or any phpBB direct url to be redirected to wp iframed forum page using pure javascript, follow this step:

Open with a text editor your phpBB template file overall_header.html

and just immediately after this code (or by the way, before the closing tag </head>)

to fit/point to the WordPress iframed forum page: DO NOT ADD final slash and setup as http or https as needed.

NOTE: if you added the code above into phpBB overall_header.html then you’ll need to remove or comment out this part by the code you added into the overall_footer.html:

$( "a" ).contextmenu(function() {
 var ohref = $(this).attr("href");
 var href = this.href; // treath like an external because only open New tab or New window
  d = w3allNormalize_phpBBUrl(href);
  hrefEnc = window.btoa(unescape(encodeURIComponent(d)));
  href1 =  wordpress_url_page_forum + '/?w3=' + hrefEnc;  
    
  $(this).attr("href", href1); // send out encoded
  $(this).mouseleave(function() { // reset (replaced 'mouseup')
  $(this).attr("href", ohref);
  });
});

$( "a" ).contextmenu(function() {

var ohref = $(this).attr("href");

var href = this.href; // treath like an external because only open New tab or New window

d = w3allNormalize_phpBBUrl(href);

hrefEnc = window.btoa(unescape(encodeURIComponent(d)));

href1 = wordpress_url_page_forum + '/?w3=' + hrefEnc;

$(this).attr("href", href1); // send out encoded

$(this).mouseleave(function() { // reset (replaced 'mouseup')

$(this).attr("href", ohref);

});

Recompile phpBB template and reset to no the option when changes applied

whenever you want: to get the iframe responsive for ACP phpBB admin panel, read this post. My (personal) suggestion is to stop here and try to use the integration leaving ACP out of iframe joke. If by the way you want to follow, before to apply then you’ll have to little change the above code for overall_footer.html and overall_header.html in this way:

on code for overall_footer.html remove this part:

if( /\/adm\//ig.exec(href) !== null ){ 
e.preventDefault(); 
window.open(href,'_blank'); 
return; 
}

if( /\/adm\//ig.exec(href) !== null ){

e.preventDefault();

window.open(href,'_blank');

return;

}

on code for overall_header.html remove this part:

if ((window.self !== window.top) != true) { //(or get loop) 
if(/adm\//ig.exec(window.location.href) === null){ // avoid x ACP 
var w3all_r = window.location.href.replace(/sid=.+/gi, ''); 
w3all_r = w3all0Normalize_phpBBUrl(w3all_r); 
hrefEnc = window.btoa(unescape(encodeURIComponent(w3all_r))); 
href0 = wordpress_url_page_f + '/?w3=' + hrefEnc; document.location.replace(href0); }} 
// END force w3all to iframe redirect

if ((window.self !== window.top) != true) { //(or get loop)

if(/adm\//ig.exec(window.location.href) === null){ // avoid x ACP

var w3all_r = window.location.href.replace(/sid=.+/gi, '');

w3all_r = w3all0Normalize_phpBBUrl(w3all_r);

hrefEnc = window.btoa(unescape(encodeURIComponent(w3all_r)));

href0 = wordpress_url_page_f + '/?w3=' + hrefEnc; document.location.replace(href0); }}

// END force w3all to iframe redirect

change into:

if ((window.self !== window.top) != true) { //(or get loop) 
w3all_r = window.location.href.replace(/sid=.+/gi, ''); 
w3all_r = w3all0Normalize_phpBBUrl(w3all_r); 
hrefEnc = window.btoa(unescape(encodeURIComponent(w3all_r))); 
href0 = wordpress_url_page_f + '/?w3=' + hrefEnc; document.location.replace(href0); } 
// END force w3all to iframe redirect

if ((window.self !== window.top) != true) { //(or get loop)

after you pasted this code into phpBB overall_footer.html
edit following lines:

1	document.domain = 'axew3.com'; // THIS IS MANDATORY! Set/Change this value to your domain (example: axew3.com (or set localhost if on localhost))

1	var wordpress_url_page_forum = 'https://www.axew3.com/w3/forum'; // MANDATORY! (DO NOT INCLUDE final slash here) Url that point to your wordpress forum page (without final slash)

change value
https://www.axew3.com/w3/forum
on this line, to point to the URL of the WordPress created forum page
(do not add final slash and change http or https as needed)
MANDATORY!

Finally, check this line

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.axew3.com/phpBB/iframeResizer.contentWindow.min.js" defer></script>

1	<script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.axew3.com/phpBB/iframeResizer.contentWindow.min.js" defer></script>

1	src="https://www.yoursite.com/your-phpbb-folder/iframeResizer.contentWindow.min.js"

AFTER EDITED, save and load the modified overall_footer.html into your phpBB style folder, overwriting the default one, and so

After this, phpBB require to recompile the template, or modifications to template files not affect (to overall_footer.html in this case). Open phpBB ACP, and so under:

Server Configuration -> Load settings -> Recompile stale style components set to YES and save. Load one time a phpBB full forum page. So return to ACP and reset to NO, save. This step is needed one time to load the template modifications on phpBB (and any time you edit a phpBB template file to for modifications take effect), but this option should be ever set to NO into an online/production site to save server resources. It is normally set to yes only for testing/devel purpose or to apply modifications on phpBB templates files.

How to update to latest iframe js code and page-forum.php?

Update the plugin (or download plugin and copy files by /resizer folder)
so files inside folder
/wp-content/plugins/wp-w3all-phpbb-integration/addons/resizer
results updated (or do it manually substituting these files with latest released https://github.com/davidjbradshaw/iframe-resizer)
so substitute/replace the file you added into phpBB root folder with latest iframeResizer.contentWindow.min.js
copy it from
/wp-content/plugins/wp-w3all-phpbb-integration/addons/resizer
folder and replace in phpBB root folder.

Replace the old code added into phpBB overall_footer.html file with the new one above into this page, take care to setup on it needed values as now required.

Remember to rebuild phpBB template after these steps to let changes take effect.

Now rebuild the page forum in WP w3all admin page, or manually copy the new page-forum.php version contained on folder
/wp-content/plugins/wp-w3all-phpbb-integration/addons
and paste it into your WordPress template folder, renaming it as needed, so for example page-board.php if you setted up board for the forum page name on wp_w3all admin page.

Done.

Note: if you want a custom page-forum, just open the page-forum.php (or whatever you named it) and read inline hints inside. It is so easy to create a custom page forum (for example with two columns etc). If any help more. just post on help forums here at axew3.com or at wordpress.org.

If you want phpBB email notification links to point to iframe, follow this step about htaccess:

phpBB htaccess for phpBB notification email to point WP forum page (1.6.9>)

to activate the rewrite right click/copy links on iframe, to point to iframe, activate the related code removing the two lines:

/* remove this line to activate htaccess trick
and
*/ //remove this line to activate htaccess trick

NOTE: to get the iframe to be responsive for ACP phpBB admin panel, read this post.

Transfer phpBB users into WordPress or WordPress users into phpBB

If you want to use the phpBB WordPress integration plugin just to transfer users between WordPress and phpBB or phpBB to WordPress, follow instructions on this help page:

WordPress phpBB integration without linking users

WordPress phpBB integration without linking users

NOTE: from 1.9.4 > this feature become option on plugin admin page, so may it is needed further read more below only if updating from old plugin versions: update the plugin, then login plugin admin and setup as YES the new plugin option

Activate integration without linking users between WordPress and phpBB

Will not be further more necessary to edit the wp_w3all.php file each time plugin update, to set it up the integration as Not Linked Users.

It is possible to use the plugin without linking users between WordPress and phpBB. You can display Last Topics Widgets and Shortcodes to display phpBB Last Posts or Posts content into WordPress Pages/Posts. It is also possible to use the iframed WP page, to display the phpBB forum into a WordPress page (also cross domain*). Without linking users, you may can integrate also a version of phpBB prior (<) of phpBB 3.1 to display phpBB Last Topics Widgets/Shortcodes or phpBB Posts Shorcodes into WordPress.

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

It is necessary to activate the plugin: setup the Path and URL setting following instructions into WP admin -> Settings -> WP_w3all config page. You do not need to follow any other further instruction about cookie setup and/or phpBB ACP settings in this case. So after plugin has been activated, by setting Path to a valid phpBB config.php file and URL setting, you can use Widgets Last Topics Posts and use Shortcodes into WP pages and posts, to display phpBB contents or to use the users transfers options in this state. The URL setting if the plugin is merely used to transfer users, is not needed. Just setup the path to a valid phpBB config.php file.

Hint Note*: without linking users between phpBB and WordPress, it is also possible to use the plugin for cross domains installations (not only domain and subdomain). Just create a valid custom phpBB config.php file, as suggested into Wp admin -> WP_w3all config page, and use it.

NOTE: from 1.9.4 this feature has become option, so if updating from old plugin versions, just update the plugin, and repeat the above predure last time: then login plugin admin and setup the new option

Activate integration without linking users between WordPress and phpBB: The Old Way

OBSOLETE step OR to update from old versions prior 1.9.4:

~~To install WP_w3all integration without linking users, follow these steps:~~
~~Install the plugin~~

~~open with text editor the file:~~
/wp-content/plugins/wp-w3all-phpbb-integration/wp_w3all.php
~~+- on top of the file, search for this line~~

//define('WPW3ALL_NOT_ULINKED', true);

1	//define('WPW3ALL_NOT_ULINKED', true);

~~if on 1.9.4 > and updating you’ll find this instead:~~

// Set integration as 'Not Linked Users'
if( get_option('w3all_not_link_phpbb_wp') > 0 ){
define('WPW3ALL_NOT_ULINKED', true);
}

// Set integration as 'Not Linked Users'

if( get_option('w3all_not_link_phpbb_wp') > 0 ){

define('WPW3ALL_NOT_ULINKED', true);

}

~~change into~~

define('WPW3ALL_NOT_ULINKED', true);

1	define('WPW3ALL_NOT_ULINKED', true);

save/replace the edited wp_w3all.php file into plugin folder.
