[bd] WordPress Proxy

[fattony69]

Yes, it's possible.

You, sir, have made me a very happy person. Definitely need to finish my work to get this!

You are my best friend xfrocks, thank you for this great addon

 

[yavuz]

I just updated the proxy addon first at all, thank you for the hard work. Unfortunately it doesn't interact well with other xenforo styles like flexile and it doesn't look very good. It would be enough if we could use the wordpress theme when wordpress takes over xenforo but that isn't an option anymore.

If you want WordPress to use its own theme, you only need the bridge. Btw, I'm curious, how does it look with other styles?

I'd like to use the posting feature and wordpress take over with the actual wordpress theme not customized xenforo style.

I think we can simply hide the blog tab to use the posting feature only (of course, it's not supported atm)
About the take over, if WordPress use its theme, it will be your home already. Right? I'm a little confused here

Yeah, I'm too and you have right to be With the way it is meant to work doesn't make my request possible. My concern is the look on flexile when I set the proxy. There are layout issues and css formatting doesn't feel right.

A feature request for the future were sharing posts between systems like the user/login feature. When I create a post on worpdress a post will be created in XenForo. vBulletin had one plugin which made that possible.

I tried to leave a comment on your site as guest

But it doesn't allow. This is something I'm interested in. How Xenforo takes comments from guests.

Got your test comment from testing@gmail.com, "this is a test" (do you need your IP? )
XenForo doesn't handle the comments, WordPress does. I will approve your comment now

 

[Andy.N]

Oh, I see, comments are moderated on Wordpress side.
If you are going to integrate WP comments into XF threads, how guests will appear.

Guest appears as guest I guess.

Did you update the bridge?

 

[yavuz]

Did you update the bridge?

Yes, but appearantly some files were damaged. Some strangeness with my ftp. Now it's working, thanks.

Another thing discovered: When I select "WordPress is the Master System option" the forum tab is gone (when I hover it it points to wordpress) and you can not reach /forum.

 

[xfrocks]

Make sure all the files are in place. You should be able to access forum list via the route prefix

Just read through the whole thread, and saw a ref or two to comment integration. Can you clarify what the goal behavior is? I know we're one of a group that wants to have comments/posts in forum integrated, having two separate places for commentary is a "Bad Thing" for community engagement.

Is the goal to have it so that

1. You can promote a post to an article (already in from what I see on the OP). Question: does it link back to the original thread?
2. Any comments on an article will spawn a thread in a forum designated for that WP category.

Ideally we'd like to see XF being essentially made into the comment engine for WP. The promote to article is a BIG deal though and we'd like to deeply thank you for all your work on the WP integration!

1. No. The 2 things (thread and blog post) won't have any connection whatever
2. Nope. Comments stay where they are but due to popular demand, I do have plan to synchronize comments between two systems

1. How do I remove the sidebar from wordpress

2. How do I change the name "Blog" on the navbar?

 

[Tigratrus]

2. How do I change the name "Blog" on the navbar?

I found that one... It's a Phrase:
Appearance -> Phrases -> Master Language
The phrase you're looking for is: bdwpp_blog

Change the value for the Phrase text and "Blog" should change to whatever you want it to be.
