Marcher Technologies Posted October 30, 2013 Author Posted October 30, 2013 Marcher,I reinstalled the files in the SAME location and now some features are working with one notable exception. When a user registers from IPB, the user is then automatically logged in on the IPB but not on the Wordpress site. Please respond to this post and tell me what to do to fix the problem.Can you ensure the ipb cookie domain is configured for this from your Admin Panel > System > System Settings > System > Server Environment? wordpress needs to read a cookie IPB sets.
Alex Touchstone Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 Thanks, Marcher, for the help. Unfortunately, that did not fix the problem. What else can I check?
Marcher Technologies Posted October 30, 2013 Author Posted October 30, 2013 Thanks, Marcher, for the help. Unfortunately, that did not fix the problem. What else can I check?Can you screenshot that page? are you using a single top level domain for both sites? wp.mysite.com and mysite.com or mysite.com and mysite.com/ipb would work for SSO. wpmysite.com and mysite.com would not.
SyK3 Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 @ Marcher Technologies I got ours working thanks for the help.
Alex Touchstone Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 I am using prefix1.mysite.com and prefix2.mysite.com for IPB and Wordpress.
Marcher Technologies Posted October 30, 2013 Author Posted October 30, 2013 Hello,Do you have '.mysite.com' as the IPB cookie domain? Can you ensure the cookie path is empty, and the cookie domain is valid(it cannot be empty and this work)?
Marcher Technologies Posted October 30, 2013 Author Posted October 30, 2013 Can you please try emptying the cookie prefix or updating to 3.4.6?
Alex Touchstone Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 I updated to 3.4.6 and removed the cookie prefix. Then I registered a user from IPB. The new user is logged into the forum but not into the Wordpress site, as before.
Marcher Technologies Posted October 30, 2013 Author Posted October 30, 2013 I updated to 3.4.6 and removed the cookie prefix. Then I registered a user from IPB. The new user is logged into the forum but not into the Wordpress site, as before.When this occurs, is the ipsconnect_* cookie set to 1? If you clear your cookies, does this issue still occur? For clarity, this is on successful registration to IPB with no user validation, and is not occurring with normal IPB login?
Alex Touchstone Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 Marcher, Yes the ipsconnect_* cookie is set to 1. The test case is: New user registration from IPB. New user is successfully and automatically logged in on IPB upon registration. New user is NOT logged in on Wordpress. No user validation (turned off)
Alex Touchstone Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 I have just spent several hours on this and I am further away from a solution than I was earlier. Please help.
Marcher Technologies Posted October 30, 2013 Author Posted October 30, 2013 I have just spent several hours on this and I am further away from a solution than I was earlier. Please help.Please PM me access details. I'm not going to get far with this issue without looking directly at the site in question unfortunately.
Alex Touchstone Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 Thank you so much for addressing this issue for me, Marcher. If anyone else is considering this plugin and uncertain whether they will receive the support they need, my experience shows there is no need for concern. Kudos to you, Marcher! Alex
Marcher Technologies Posted October 30, 2013 Author Posted October 30, 2013 Hi Marcher, I have a question which stumped one of my developers. Since the start we had no issues using the official functions like: - wp_insert_user - wp_signon to register users on front-end and auto-login with provided credentials. With the introduction of the SSO plugin, wp_signon refuses to work and we would like to check with Marcher Tech on this. ie. why the SSO code is blocking functionality on wp_signon. Thank you. :smile: You will have to follow up on this with a failing unit test illustrating the issue via PM unfortunately. My 'hooks' into wordpress are as efficient and clean as possible, and as it works fine in wordpress core, until proven otherwise the third-party code is in question. I also would think I would notice wp_insert_user not working, as that function is used on SSO init when the user does not exist locally. The developer that is stumped should be capable of providing the unit test.
loccom Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 Hi Marcher, We run many websites, each with an IPB forum. We also have single Wordpress MultiUser installation. Each site has a Wordpress blog within that MU setup. We would like to use this plugin allow a SSO between Wordpress and IPB for each site and to give us access to latest forum topics on Wordpress, and have a couple of questions: Will the SSO be isolated for each website? So will there be many one to one relationships, one for each installation of IPB? Would we only need one licence as it is for one Wordpress installation? Thanks, Steve.

Hello Steve, Unfortunately, for that to be workable/feasible, I would need to include a wordpress ipsconnect master. Additionally, all IPB 'xmlrpc' functionality would not be viable, as there would be no IPB master. This greatly limits the feature set, for instance, topic posting and widgets depend on that functionality.
Alex Touchstone Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 Hi Marcher, I hit another hurdle. With the the plugin enabled, is there some way to continue to use the registration form on the Wordpress site? When I tested, I got another "lockup" I assume this is related to AJAX conflicts. Alex

Alex Hello, That actually has to go to IPB registration, that is to say that no, you cannot, and the only reason you are even seeing this issue is because that registration form is a modification. All stock registration on the frontend is accounted for. Wordpress does not provide me access to the user password at a critical time in front-end registration(admin add user is fine), in the only place I can hook into it, thus I am forced to send registration through IPB.
JEFF MACK Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 Marcher here are a few questions before purchase. I currently have the full IPB suite and use IP.Blog. I want to import my 300+ blog articles into Wordpress (working on that now). I would also like to somehow import the comments, not sure yet how I will do that, but working on it. So here is where my questions start. 1. Is there anyway to import all the IP Board members in the beginning, so they are there to work with the comments? 2. Since I have nexus, in the future i would like to create a membership for paying customers for more features. Will this interfere with the hook? 3. Do the IDs in the wp table match the member_id in the IPB members table? I plan on using IPBoard registration, not sure if that makes a difference with anything.
JEFF MACK Posted November 4, 2013 Posted November 4, 2013 Also, is there a way to get a widget for recent posts? I see hot topics, recent topics and popular topics, but I could really use most recent posts.
JEFF MACK Posted November 5, 2013 Posted November 5, 2013 Well I am trying to set this up, but now I can no longer access the WordPress admin. It seems to be working somewhat, but now I have no idea why I can not access the admin area anymore. Has anyone run into this and know how to fix it?
Mediamage Posted November 6, 2013 Posted November 6, 2013 I have not tested it. It sounds like they are saying so long as the data is synced in WP 'users' table, it should be compatible. Ask them if they overload wp_logout(the global function, not the 'action hook'). If they do then I can simply confirm it is not going to work. Otherwise it should be fine as far as I know, but again, untested. I talked to DAP (DigitalAccessPass.com) support and they said "We do not overload wp_logout." So this should work then for me using Wordpress and DAP?
