wordbooker wont auth

Can you please post the support information from the bottom of the page. Also did you have Wordbook installed before Wordbooker? If you did you must de-activate Wordbook properly through the plugins panel before activating Wordbooker.

Hi,

Me too. Same problem. Authorization worked fine on main site of MultiSite install but failed in an endless loop for a sub-site. Never had Wordbook, sub-sites in subdirectory as opposed to subdomain, the blog in question is blog_id 2 and finally I’m using WordPress MU Domain Mapping to make it look like the sub-site is at the root of it’s own domain.
(www.sub-site.com vs. https://www.main-site.com/sub-site)

Max – you have a very specific problem which I’m sure is related to the use of the domain mapping plugin.

You should be getting some diagnostics but what I suspect is happening is that the callback url (which is derived from the “wpurl” WP configuration item is not working properly.

Unfortunately I can’t test against that plugin due to DNS limitations imposed by my Domain registrar.

Hi Steve,

My options table option_name: site_url for the sub-site (blog_id 2 in the blogs table) shows the siteurl to be in the pattern of
https://www.main-site.com/sub-site/.
I’ll do some work on it and let you know what I find.

Regards

Hi Steve,

Just FYI,

I went through every url generated by Wordbooker to communicate with Facebook on my working main site, and compared them with what the variables were being populated with by WordPress MU Domain Mapping rewrites on my sub-site. Everything looked like it should have been working.

In reading everything available I came upon this statement on your website, https://blogs.canalplan.org.uk/steve/wordbooker/ :
“Wordbooker works with WordPress 3.01 in single and multi-site modes but cannot be activated network wide. This will be rectified in Wordbooker 2.0 which is currently under development.”

Now, I had not read this on the installation tab on www.ads-software.com or in the installation section of your wordbooker_user_guide pdf. When I activated Wordbooker I did use network activation. So I deactivated the plugin and reactivated it separately for each site. After that Wordbooker successfully proceeded to authorize and post to Facebook on my sub-site.

I think maybe this information should be featured a little more prominently in the installation instructions, seeing as how network activation broke Wordbooker on my sub-site. But the good news is Wordbooker works (at least as far as posting) on a subdirectory multi-site installation using the domain mapping plugin. Now I’ll be exploring things like cross-pollinating comments.

Regards

As I’m changing it all under V2 its moot really – the reason it doesn’t work under Network activation is that there isn’t any way in the code to determine which blog its being activated for – and turning it on on a big site would be crazy due to the number of tables it would have to create.

Steve, thanks for the great plugin.

Will V2 installation requite a reauthorization of all facebook accounts that are connected to subdomain sites?

Version 2 uses a completely different DB structure and you’ll need to re-auth each WordPress account/FB account. But there will only be 1 association between WP user and FB ID across the whole of a Networked blog install, rather than the current one per blog.

Thanks for the quick reply, Steve.

When I post from my Droid phone via the WordPress app, it is not posting to my Facebook. Is there a setting that I can adjust to allow this, or is this not possible?

Which version are you using? Are you using the XMLRPC protocol to post? There seems to be some problems with some remote clients which I’m having major problems sorting out because I don’t actually own most of the phones!

If you look at the bottom of wordbooker.php you should see:

#add_action(‘xmlrpc_publish_post’, ‘wordbooker_publish_remote’);

try removing the # from the start of the line.

I’m using Version 1.8.18

The # is already removed from that line.

My phone is the Droid 1 (original).

Well its unlikely that if its a bug in the code that it will be fixed in 1.x as I’m trying to concentrate on the code for Version 2.

Download the latest file set ( https://www.pemmaquid.plus.com/wordbookerdebug181804.zip) and upload the files over the existing ones.

Then turn on the advanced diagnostics and do a post from your phone and it should give a diagnostic trace on the Wordbooker Options page. Are you using the official WP app for android?

Yes, I am using the official WP app. I updated the files as you said. I then removed the * as you previously stated. I turned on the advanced diag. Still not working.

Is there a way I can send you a copy of the diagnostics to look at?

I am having the same problem, and not on multi-site. I log in, it says it was successful and asks to reload. When I do, it wants me to reauthorize. It was working fine until a recent update (can’t tell you which version unfortunately).

Here’s the diagnostic info:
