XPress - A theme and bridge for bringing WordPress into XenForo [Deleted]

Ended up buying.

I moved Xenforo to /community/ and WP from blog.kensonplays to the root directory.

I used the methods recommended by both softwares. Go to their respective administrator panels, change the software’s base URL, then move the files. But now the site is completely broken.

Xenforo and Wordpress are on their most recent versions, 2.0.7 and 4.9.7, respectively.

My main criticism would be the way that it handles WordPress pages; the template is missing the normal text box that comes with Xenforo pages. Passworded pages don't work at all either. I'm sure this will be addressed in time though.

Can you clarify what you mean by the template is missing the normal text box? Ill test passworded pages as well and get back.

When you moved the directories, did you update any caches or any base urls? Worst case just put it back the way you had it for now.

Took a look at your site, and it's just giving a 500 HTTP error, can you check your error logs to see if they contain anything more specific? Best guess would be that the path to XenForo was set incorrectly.

If that's the case you'll want to add this to your wp-config.php file:

define('XPRESS_BYPASS_XENFORO', true);

and this into your XenForo src/config.php:
$config['enableListeners'] = false;

then go in and adjust the paths and remove these two items

The Xenforo config is setup right, I think: 1531932313299.webp

I still cannot access the wordpress admin for some reason. @Jake B.

For now i miss a few options.
- How to set the permissions? My forumusers are unable to create a blog. And how can i give the moderators permissions to moderate blogs?
- In XenBlog you can see:
  • Most recent
  • Last updated
  • Most viewed
  • Most replied
  • Title (alphabetical)
  • Latest comments
  • Most rated
  • Most liked

And i like the widget to show "topbloggers".

Is it possible to make it like that?

I actually did not know it did this, likely a bug.

Just to make clear, I want to give an example.

When I promote an existing XF thread as an article, it quotes the first post which is normal but it cuts and deletes some part of first post.

I guess it is not good for an existing thread which has already indexed by google. May be better to keep the first post as it is.

Is it normal or a bug ?

Example XF Thread : https://www.altikanal.com/xenkolik2/konu/mikado-vbar-control-2-0.17267/
And its WP article : https://www.altikanal.com/blog/2018/07/16/mikado-vbar-control-2-0/

There is a limitation (10 items) at blog page for showing articles. Is it possible to increase it or add a new button "SHOW MORE" at the bottom of blog page or auto scroll down function ? Just like Xenportal main page.

How were you able to get the featured post to work? I'm having tons of problems with it. I created a static page and used front page template and i still keep getting this.

You need to create a new page, called home, and set the template in the sidebar to Home page. Its something Im debating not needing as a step, and instead just adding a checkbox for it to show up on the news listing. I dont know what is more organized tbh
