Greetings, quick question re: W3all plugin for login integration

Post by corleone »

Hello, just a quick question.

I'm rather inexperienced in the technical side of setting up sites. I currently have a phpbb forum set up with several thousand users (3.0.12), and recently set up a wordpress blog.

I wanted to set up real time commenting in the WP site, so I downloaded livefyre, and just now found your plug in to integrate login with phpbb (which would be incredible for me).

I currently have my site on a VPS, and have set up two separate Cpanel's for them, so my Phpbb and wordpress are on the same IP address, but different CPanel. Will I be able to integrate the login info/user profile's with my current setup? I've looked at your instructions and may have overlooked it, but I suspect I may have a problem in this regard?

Thank you for your time and hard work for such a great mod,

Nick

Should be no problem about this: it is required to setup correct include for the config.php of phpbb on wp_w3all config and correct cookie setting for phpBB. If cookies are setup ok in phpBB and thhose are available for WP folder, all should work fine.

OK, I'm getting some problems with my path name.

I'll include some screen shots to make it simple to see my issue.


My wordpress site is raidersdigest.com which I'm trying to incorporate the users from my forum which is raiderforums.com:

Quick update:
I followed these instructions (which I just found) https://www.axew3.com/w3/forum/?forum_id ... d=216#p216

From that, I got my absolute path as /home/raider8129/public_html

I used that as my path and url as https://raiderforums.com

I'm still getting the same error:

WARNING! Wp w3all miss phpBB configuration file:



PLEASE set the correct full ABSOLUTE PATH to phpBB folder!

if the path is correct, think this can be the problem:
https://www.axew3.com/w3/2016/03/how-to- ... inclusion/
if your phpBB is for example installed at forum.mysite.com
and wordpress at mysite.com

one of these two (or both) are the reason of failing include config file.
Wrong path or open_base_dir
