[bd] WordPress Proxy

[Tigratrus]

xfrocks,

First off, thank you. You make XF rock even more than it does natively .

Secondly, can you provide some guidance on how to setup the system as it is on your server?
We want to do essentially the same exact thing, WP at the root and XF in /community. Is there an rewrite rule at work to make that function? Any help you can provide in setting that up would be greatly appreciated!

 

[Tigratrus]

Hrm...
Second question: How does the promote from XF post to wp post work? I've got it turned on, but don't see any option to promote the XF post? Maybe I'm not looking where I should?

 

[ddmmh]

Yeah how do you promote threads? Cant find anything in the doco's either, anybody? Thanks

I have a blog installed in /blog directory and a forum in the main directory (public_html). I'm using the XenForo Wordpress plugin to connect Wordpress with XenForo.


Is it possible to make an option where we can set the Wordpress blog as home page and the forum to be accessible from /forum? In this suggestion the wordpress blog is using its own theme. Hope that was clear enough.

anyone know why it might say:

You must install the XenForo plugin for WordPress before continue...

even when the plugin IS installed?

Have you configured the plugin and tested that it works properly?

 

[Business Coach]

yes - i configured it, and it appears to be working fine (the xen for wp)...the bd proxy is what is giving error

So you must have entered a wrong path because the addon check for wordpress-root/wp-content/plugins/xenforo/theme/ directory. If that directory can not be found, it refuses to work

"The specified WordPress path (/home/USERNAME/public_html/community/blog) can not be found. Please double check for typo. If you are uncertain, please ask your hosting provider."

when i arbitrarily change it

my blog is in /root/blog

my forums is in /root/community

inside proxy by default it gives this path (which is incorrect) "/home/USERNAME/public_html/community/wp"

also in reading your post again

I have directory: "wordpress-root/wp-content/plugins/xenforo/" and "wordpress-root/wp-content/plugins/xenforo/css/" but not "wordpress-root/wp-content/plugins/xenforo/theme/" what is the "theme" root...where does that come from?

I think that's your problem. Please download the plugin for WordPress again and upload it again (remove current directory before uploading) http://xenforo.com/community/threads/wordpress-3-bridge.5398/

 

[Business Coach]

well it accepted it

but on my nav bar when i hit "blog"

it takes me to: /community/blog/

and then that is just a page that says
- Error


The requested page could not be found.

i am in wp 3.0.5

 

[Business Coach]

any idea what the fix for this is?

It can work if your 2 directories (for the www.domain.com and blog.domain.com) are on the same server and the script engine has access to both. In general case: yes.

I can't seem to get this to work mate
wordpress is domain.com
forum is forum.domain.com

Yes, it's possible. You can see a live example here http://xfrocks.com

Have you configured cookie settings correctly?

on the forum's (forum.domain.com it become's forum.domain.com/ihavetoaddsomethinghereinthesettings
and home become's forum.domain.com not domain.com

I actually asked about how you configured your cookie because you are running the two system across different subdomains. If you don't have a good cookie setting, the bridge won't work hence the proxy will fail

 

[x4rl]

The Login seem's to work fine tho
Also i have not even seen any cookie setting's anyway. Or is this something i have to code?

Thanks

Yes, you have to change the config.php file. If the bridge works fine but proxy fail, send me your site via conversation
