Drupal modules for IPBWI 2 Options

[WhiskeyJack]

It has been a while, but here they are, the Drupal modules for IPBWI 2. I've been using them for a week now on a small production site and so far no problems (*knock on wood*).

Very important install instructions:
Do not forget to check your IPB forum cookie settings (under admin):
Cookie Domain: .your-domain.com
Cookie Name Prefix: {blank}
Cookie Path: {blank}
And disable the "Create a stronghold auto-log in cookie" option.

For a rough description of the possibilities, see this thread. I've made some enhancements in this version that I'll explain later.

The modules can be seen in action on the clanbeware website.
I'm also working on a recent forum posts module (as can be seen on the mentioned website), but it is still only a customized version for our specific skin. If you're interested, let me know and I'll see if I can release that in a usable form as well.


Enjoy!

This is a fantastic module. I've been looking for something like this for a long time. Good work.

I do have a wish list, though:

• Members should also be able to log in using their display names. These are found in the field members_display_name of the ibf_members table.
• I'd like to configure the Drupal new user registration link to point to the IPB registration form.

Unfortunately, after I configured the whole system i still get an error:

CODE

Fatal error: Call to a member function isLoggedIn() on a non-object in /var/www/web23/html/drupal/modules/ipb/ipb.module on line 176

The code which indicates the error is:

CODE

function ipb_ipb_login($_ipb_SDK) {
         if ($_ipb_SDK->member->isLoggedIn()) {
             $ipb_user_info = $_ipb_SDK->member->info();
             ipb_print_debug("ipb_ipb_login: IPB login found for: " . $ipb_user_info['name'] ."(login name)");
             //return $info['name'];
             return $ipb_user_info;
           }
           else {
             // no active IPB user found
             ipb_print_debug("ipb_ipb_login: no IPB login found");
             return FALSE;
           }

I think that config.inc.php file is properly configured:

CODE

define('ipbwi_BOARD_PATH','/var/www/web23/html/forumpsp/');
           define('ipbwi_ROOT_PATH','/modules/ipbwi/');

What can be a cause of this error ? I will appreciate a quick response, Thank You!

Edit: I'm have Drupal 6.10 and IPB 2.3.6

Edit2: Okey, i'm solved problem

Hi, I have the same problem above.
Could you tell me how you can fix it?
Thanks so much!

[Ricky]

Thanks for the module! Will you be updating it for IPB 3.0?

I've made a few edits that might help others.

To change the URL for "Create New Account".

Open ipb.module

Look For:

CODE

    if (variable_get('user_register', 1)) {
           $items[] = l(t('Create new account'), 'user/register', array('title' => t('Create a new user account.')));

Replace With:

CODE

    if (variable_get('user_register', 1)) {
           $items[] = l(t('Create new account'), 'http://'. $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] .'/'.'forums/index.php?act=Reg', array('title' => t('Create a new user account.')));

You need to replace forums with your forum directory.

To change the URL for when a user types in the wrong password.

Open /modules/user/user.module

Look For:

CODE

    form_set_error('name', t('Sorry, unrecognized username or password.  <a href="@password">Have you forgotten your password?</a>',  array('@password' => url('user/password'))));

Replace With:

CODE

    form_set_error('name', t('Sorry, unrecognized username or password. <a href="@password">Have you forgotten your password?</a>', array('@password' => url('http://'. $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] .'/'.'forums/index.php?act=Reg&CODE=10'))));

You need to replace forums with your forum directory.

I know there's better ways to do this but my coding skills are pretty limited. Also make sure to restore the original user.module when you update Drupal then re-apply the edit.

Anyone know how to change the "My Account" link to point to the members profile?

Thanks for your comments and great to hear you're making good use of the modules.

Yes, 0.9 is the latest version. And I might be porting to 3.0, but for now there is no need. When 3.0 is ready and IBPWI jumps on that bandwagon, I'll probably go to.

As for the My Account question, I'm not sure what you are trying to achieve, but a simple solution might be to disable the default My Account menu item in Drupal and create a new one that would link to the IPB account page.

[Ricky]

Yeah I disabled the link. I'm unsure how to add a link to the users IPB profile. Any chance you can post the code for it?

hi, i'm having trouble setting up these two modules. The IPBWI module works fine on its own, but when i enable the ipb module, I get this error message

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/usr/local/apache/htdocs/sites/all/modules/ipbwi/ipbwi.inc.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/a2542509/public_html/sites/all/modules/ipbwi/ipbwi.module on line 44

is there anyway to fix this?

I'm using drupal 6.13 and ipb 2.3.6

[Milesb]

Hi, when will a version for IPB 3 come out?

[Curtis]

I'm have a wide understanding of php and technology but I'm new to Drupal and IPB. I don't see any "readme or install notes" on any of these sites.

I'm running Drupal 6.17 and IPB 3.1.1

I visited http://ipbwi.com and downloaded the 3.0 beta release.

Now I've got three files

ipb_v0.9.zip
ipbwi_v0.9.zip
ipbwi_v3002_beta.zip

I assume that I'll want to delete ipbwi_v0.9.zip and replace it with ipbwi_v3002_beta.zip because I'm using IPB v3 and not v2.

Where I'm stuck...

I extracted ipb_v0.9.zip and uploaded the IPB folder to my server. This now requires the IPBWI folder.

I've combined the fold files of ipbwi_v0.9.zip with ipbwi_v3002_beta.zip and enabled IPBWI...

Here I maybe screwing up part of the config file but I get a Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/public_html/forums/admin/api/api_core.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /public_html/curtis.tv/modules/ipbwi/lib/ips_wrapper.inc.php on line 6


I'm very confused with the setup of this entire module(s) and the IPBWI site links right to this forum post.

Any help guys? I'm willing to donate some money to a helping hand in getting everything setup.

Thanks!
Curtis

Hi Curtis,

please note that IPBWI 3 is actually no compatible with latest IP.board version. The problem is that IP.board is changing API-methods within minor updates between IP.board 3.0 and 3.1.1.

I'll take a closer look at the beginning of july to make IPBWI 3 compatible again with latest board version. After that I am looking forward to stick together with you to make drupal plugin working again with latest IPBWI and board version. If you need some guidance until july to get it done by your own, feel free to ask me.

If you need to get IPBWI 3 installed connected with 3.0 board version, just become IPBWI 3 sponsor for just 15 bucks and I'll install it on your server with working live examples. This could be a good base to get drupal plugin compatible with IP.board 3.0 and IPBWI 3 again. I do not think that you need to fix the drupal plugin again after IPBWI's compatibility update for IP.board 3.1.1.

Kind regards,
Matthias

Hi,

good to hear that you are working on the latest version for drupal. If I can help let me know i am not much of a programmer but i am willing to learn .

[Sprotret]

Whenever I install everything and change the config file I just get a blank page.

Anyone updated this or has anything that atleast works on IPB 3 and Drupal 6 so logins are integrated into IPB?
