How can I assign a phpBB group when the user has a specific role.

Goal: My goal is when a user has a Role ‘A’ on WordPress they should be on Group ‘A’ in phpBB

How to remove the black preload screen?

Hi,

I was hoping you could help with a question.
we currently love a WordPress site and a separate forum site. We don’t want to loose any data on either site but want to pair the logins so that they are linked.
is this possible?

I was thinking maybe something like you pick the master for example PHPBB and it’s uses the usernames from that and updates any account on WordPress with the same email to have a matching username and password and links them?
I hope that makes sense, and thanks in advance

I am suddenly unable to access ACP. The forum is opening fine but as soon as we click on ACP, the site asks for login again and then shows 403 error.

Hi there,

“I just installed and configured the w3all plugin(s) to sync with my WordPress installation. Everything was working fine until I edited the footer and header files. It was then that I encountered an error that I was trying to solve. The error message I received was “414 Request-URI Too Long – The requested URL’s length exceeds the capacity limit for this server.” As far as I know, this means that the requested URL has exceeded the limit of 8k characters. I tried to reverse the editing process, but it didn’t work. I also tried to reverse some of the steps to see if it had any impact on the error but…”

–It did not ⊙﹏⊙∥

I’ve never encountered a 414 server error before, so I’m asking for help on the W3all support site to see if anyone has come across it during configuration.

….help!

EDIT

I might add two more things just to clarify how things are rolling here ;D The header and footer files I have edited are
board/styles/prosilver/template/overall_footer.html
board/styles/prosilver/template/overall_header.html
I might have done that part wrong tho(?)

In my root dir, I have 2 folders and one .htaccess file. One folder with “wp-site” and one with “phpbb”, now – the htaccess file in my root folder is rewriting url’s and looks like this:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?mydomain.com$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/wp-folder/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /wp-folder/$1
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?mydomain.com$
RewriteRule ^(/)?$ wp-folder/index.php [L]
</IfModule>

…just so I don’t get any 404 thrown at me for pointing to other installations on my wp-site.

Hello, after integrating worpdress and phpbb, what do you recommend to create a paid membership?

Thanks

Hi,

I know, users can’t change their username from UCP; They can’t change it. But today I changed a user’s username from User Method to avoid confusion as it was very similar to mine. Then I also changed it from WordPress _users table from phpmyadmin. Is there a problem?

Hi,

I want to show topics from some forums in the WP archive. For example, I have a category called News in WP. In my phpBB board, there are 3 different forums related to news. I want to show the topics published in these forums in the WP archive. Featured image (first image in first post, otherwise a default image), author (username of first post author), date (date of first post), category (say “Forum”), description (157 characters from first post, ellipsis at the end).

Code of WP archive page:

<?php
$author = get_theme_mod( 'post_author_blog_archives' );
$date   = get_theme_mod( 'post_date_blog_archives' );
$categories   = get_theme_mod( 'post_categories_blog_archives' );
?>
<div <?php post_class(); ?>>
	<?php do_action( 'ct_mission_news_archive_post_before' ); ?>
	<article>
		<?php ct_mission_news_featured_image(); ?>
		<div class='post-header'>
			<?php do_action( 'ct_mission_news_sticky_post_status' ); ?>
			<h2 class='post-title'>
				<a href="<?php echo esc_url( get_permalink() ); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
			</h2>
			<?php ct_mission_news_post_byline( $author, $date, $categories ); ?>
		</div>
		<div class="post-content">
			<?php echo wp_kses_post( ct_mission_news_excerpt() ); ?>
		</div>
	</article>
	<?php do_action( 'ct_mission_news_archive_post_after' ); ?>
</div>

Is it possible to do this here?

(This request is not from the WP Post – phpBB Topic integration. It is different.)

Best.

• WordPress 6.4.1
• WP w3all phpBB:?2.7.6

Hello, I’ve just installed wordpress and plugin. Fresh installation. I have never used phpBB bridge before.

I am not able to get it working while maintaing the ability to log in to wordpress. I’ve reinstalled multiple times, pruned all configs, and tried both w3all_pass_hash_way settings, 0 and 1.

The issue is: I’ve create one user (superadmin) in before I installed this plugin (obviously). I can login this user freely, no issues. When I create another user (via registration or in administration), this user can’t login in. WordPress doesn’t warn about bad password (shaky animation in default login admin page), proceeds to login (sending post with password), redirects me but remains unlogged.

I’ve debugged it promptly and found out I can login only once if I copy&paste password from my superadmin acc to the new account. I’ve noticed password is being altered in wordpress db (wp_users table). But after that the password format changes and I can’t login in second attempt. Format is changed from wp format to bcrypt.

With w3all_pass_hash_way = 1 password is not being altered, but behaviour reamins same. Immediately after I disable the addon (and reset bcrypt password back to the wp format), everything is all ok.

What shall I do?
Thank you.

Hi, is it possible to have the variables showing the number of notifications be Ajax or controlled for a certain period of time? For example, I use the following:

<?php global $w3all_phpbb_unotifications; if (!empty($w3all_phpbb_unotifications) && $w3all_phpbb_unotifications > 0){ echo '<span class="blablax">' . $w3all_phpbb_unotifications . '</span>'; } ?>
<?php global $w3all_phpbb_usession; if ($w3all_phpbb_usession->user_unread_privmsg > 0) { echo '<span class="blablax">' . $w3all_phpbb_usession->user_unread_privmsg . '</span>'; } ?>

Hi,

There are problems with login. When I log in to phpBB with my test account and then switch to WP, the session still appears closed; After browsing around a bit and going back to phpBB, the session is closed. Can help me?

And… I’ve seen something before, but I haven’t installed it; is this necessary: https://www.axew3.com/w3/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1783

Thaks.

I installed the plugin and placed in the database settings. But after that users would login and they would see themselves pushed to the home page without having their logged in session.

I removed the plugin for now but what could be the issue

Hi,
I am showing the number of notifications with the code below.

<?php global $w3all_phpbb_unotifications; if (!empty($w3all_phpbb_unotifications) && $w3all_phpbb_unotifications > 0){ echo '<span class="blablax">' . $w3all_phpbb_unotifications . '</span>'; } ?>

If I’m not mistaken, this is just like the number of notifications in the notification icon in phpBB. Also, with the same logic, I want to show the PM number if there is a PM. I know, the number of notifications includes new PMs. However, I want to show the PM notification number next to the PM icon in the menu as per design.

Can you help me?

Hello, i’ve a problem with iframe.

If i open a topic in widget w3 last topic the iframe is not right.

Please help me.

Hi,

WordPress was not able to create a new user. It gives the error “Not enough data”. This is happening with the “Transfer single phpBB User into WordPress” tool and also when trying to add the user from the standard WordPress admin page “Users > Add New”

I had to disable the W3all plugin, or comment out the following hook:

add_filter( ‘wp_pre_insert_user_data’, ‘w3all_wp_pre_insert_user_data’, 10, 4 );

…in \wp-content\plugins\wp-w3all-phpbb-integration\class.wp.w3all-phpbb.php

Could you please check? It was causing $data to be empty.

Thanks

Hi team, I have below questions
1. After plugin setup, If we import all the WordPress users into phpbb forum, will that overwrite the existing users or add in new users?
2. Will this plugin assign the previous posts to the new users or not?

Hi,
I hope you are well.

You don’t count admin in user integration. But maybe it should be an option and the admin should count too. There are several reasons why I don’t want this. The first is about notifications, the second is for future improvements based on this integration.

By the way, remember I wanted WordPress Post and phpBB Topic? Look, someone else asked for it here. I am not alone and this could be the next big phase of phpBB and WordPress integration.

A few more questions while we’re at it: When I login to phpBB by redirecting from WordPress and then redirected to WordPress, I may be prompted to login to WordPress again. (in the test user, rarely, sometimes.) Sometimes it may be necessary to refresh the page or go to another page to show that the user is logged in; Is this something cache related?

Hi, this plugin seems exactly what I am looking for but I can not get it to work somehow, after filling in the “phpBB database connection values” and click on Save phpBB db connection and configuration values button, I keep getting error “Error establishing a database connection“. I have tried to put localhost, 127.0.0.1, or the ip address of the phpbb to the “Db host” field but none of them worked, can anyone help to point out what I did wrong? Thank you!

Some of our members on the forum registered their username as their email ids. Now emails are exposed on tge forum. How do we enable the members to update their usernames?

Hey

I installed the plugin yesterday and everything look fine but user can’t login into WP after registration.

login on phpbb works without issues.

as soon as I deactivate the plugin, the user can login.

only the administrator is able to login in WP.

Hi. I’m trying to embed a phpBB site into a new WP site, as I can’t find a better forum than phpBB in WP. This looks perfect and will hopefully enable a reasonably seamless transition from my boring old phpBB forum to a more feature rich site. However, I need to know if it is still being developed and maintained. I’m currently using 3.3.9 phpBB.

Thanks.

Hi,

Thanks a lot for the latest update. A lot of users using firefox browser are complaining that the forum page does not load on firefox and the issue is due to iframe. Can the forum run outside of iframe? If yes, how do we do that? The integration works like a charm on other browsers.

Whenever an user makes an account, if they’ve buddypress installed, it doesn’t seem to work

Hi, it’s me again. ??

After the 2.6.8 update, the code to show the notification count still doesn’t work.

I tried many php combinations. It didn’t work. plainly

<?php global $w3all_phpbb_unotifications;
  echo count($w3all_phpbb_unotifications);
?>

When it is used, it shows 0, but there is actually a notification.

You know, I usually use it in two ways. First:

function add_notification_count_to_menu($item_output, $item, $depth, $args)
    {
        if ($args->theme_location == 'primary' && $item->title == '<i class="fas fa-comment"></i> Forumlar') {
global $w3all_phpbb_unotifications;
			if (!empty($w3all_phpbb_unotifications) && count($w3all_phpbb_unotifications) > 0){
            $item_output .= '<span class="bildirimvarbaksana">'. count($w3all_phpbb_unotifications) .'</span>';

        }
		}

        return $item_output;
    }
add_filter('walker_nav_menu_start_el', 'add_notification_count_to_menu', 10, 4);

latter:

<?php global $w3all_phpbb_unotifications; if (!empty($w3all_phpbb_unotifications) && count($w3all_phpbb_unotifications) > 0){ echo'<span class="bildirimvarnokta"></span>'; } ?>

Not working. Of course, these don’t show anything because they have an if. Because as I just said, notifications show 0.

I cleared the cache. I tried from incognito tab.

What do you think is the problem?

Thanks.

Hi team,

In the last version of the plugin, the 2.6.7, I obtain an error in the WordPress login, in the server log I found:

[Fri Dec 23 21:59:06.736719 2022] [proxy_fcgi:error] [pid 909351:tid 139835072587520] [client XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:20482] AH01071: Got error 'PHP message: PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught Error: Undefined constant "WPW3ALL_MAIN_DBPREFIX" in /var/www/site.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-w3all-phpbb-integration/class.wp.w3all-phpbb.php:788\nStack trace:\n#0 /var/www/site.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-w3all-phpbb-integration/class.wp.w3all-phpbb.php(2942): WP_w3all_phpbb::phpBB_user_session_set()\n#1 /var/www/site.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-w3all-phpbb-integration/wp_w3all.php(585): WP_w3all_phpbb::phpBB_user_session_set_res()\n#2 /var/www/site.com/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(308): wp_w3all_phpbb_login()\n#3 /var/www/site.com/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(332): WP_Hook->apply_filters()\n#4 /var/www/site.com/wp-includes/plugin.php(517): WP_Hook->do_action()\n#5 /var/www/site.com/wp-includes/user.php(110): do_action()\n#6 /var/www/site.com/wp-login.php(1231): wp_signon()\n#7 {main}\n  thrown in /var/www/site.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-w3all-phpbb-integration/class.wp.w3all-phpbb.php on line 788', referer: https://www.site.com/wp-login.php

Mi site is a multisite and in the code I don’t find the point where there is the constant WPW3ALL_MAIN_DBPREFIX and there are a lot of code in the form of:

(is_multisite()) ? WPW3ALL_MAIN_DBPREFIX . 'users' : $wpdb->prefix . 'users';

Maybe there is something missing?

Thanks and regards.

Hi again,

I am using WordPress plugin “Nextend Social Login” and I was able to figure out the login thing if the user already has an account in WordPress. (See previous post https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/facebook-login-47/)

The problem is if a user tries to log in with Facebook and they are a NEW user. When they don’t have an account in my WordPress installation, a NEW user is created in WordPress when they log in with Facebook, but the user is created with no email address, no password, and they don’t receive a registration email. The user is also not created in phpBB3.

Hi there,

Does this plugin support Facebook Login (using WordPress plugin “Nextend Social Login”) ?
When a user tries to log in to WordPress using the Facebook login, an error occurs:

“Your registered username on our forum contain characters that are not allowed on this CMS system, or your username is too long (max 49 chars allowed)”

The user doesn’t have a strange Facebook name, username, or other.

Any ideas?

Currently, my WP blog is on the first page in the root folder and the phpbb forum is in the subfolder. Can I change their places? Should my main page be a phpbb forum and a wp blog as a link?
