Its made to work with 3.8.

4.0 is what we weren't sure about.

Updated the first post with a required step we had forgotten about:

Add this into your config.php

define('DISABLE_PASSWORD_CLEARING', true);

And as for updating... I'm not sure yet.

If an update is done, we'll probably add in a few more things such as:

Adding realmd entries that aren't in the vBulletin user table.

Adding vBulletin entries that aren't in the realmd account table.

So that people won't require a new install of vBulletin, or the realm database.

Whether probably to import existing records from realmd to fresh base vbulletin?

If we update this, we can add this easily enough, though new versions would require external files to handle account creation.

I'm curious how you set it up. Showing the URL is a lot different than spending many hours creating an ingame and forum integration that we will be doing anyways. It's not going to take away from your player base in any way. People who are looking to perform the same task as Google is not going to harm Google by looking at their tools they provide (Search, videos, maps, adsense, etc.)

The whole idea of you sharing your product is to help the community in an open source platform. I'm not asking for your entire bridge, just for ideas on what we should include in ours. For someone who has been in web development for the past decade, I'm always looking to expand my knowledge base, so it's more of a personal curiosity.

As you're not going to give up on this, I'll be a bit blunt:

Sharing the URL, whether it be in this thread, or in PM is against GetMangos' rule. Also, any information you could derive from said URL would be only templates, and the way we present our integration. It will not save you time from developing, therefore your point is moot. It has nothing to do with fear of you stealing our playerbase, as such things don't interest me. Google provides services, not tools (At least in the examples you posted). They keep the majority of information and working mechanics of their systems private, and share very little about them (Search being a great example, especially if you've been in Web Development for the last decade as you have said).

We've never said anything would be released other than this part of the bridge, or if we did, it was tentative, and the last word on it would have been a decision against it. Our reasons for this are: GetMangos doesn't support private or public servers, our bridge includes tools and features useful only for said servers; Our system is completely custom, and basically useless to any other person without the changes done to Mangos.

Ideas are easy to get, think them up yourself =]. As I said, seeing our URL would change nothing, as the only integration you would see would be templates, and nothing else.

If you have been in web development for a decade, you should easily be able to do what we've done, without any actual knowledge into our process and framework. That is if you were ever a professional, but clearly your actions in this and the Armory thread speak otherwise :rolleyes:.

We released this, as we wished to give back to GetMangos, and provide a starting point into integrating vBulletin to Mangos for people, without doing all the work for everyone (Not that we were done at this point anyways). However, due to people like you, I don't see us releasing the newer version, nor do I see us releasing anything else that would be helpful here. I dislike immature and rude idiots, who harass and attack people on forums, and try to manipulate the usage of open source to get what they want, just because they either lack the talent or the drive to do the work themselves.

Any further posting in this forum, or contacting me through this forum will result in being reported to the staff.

To staff: If you think I flamed without cause or reason, feel free to delete this post, or the thread.

Did you get my PM?

Yeah, releasing this is different from allowing someone to recreate our custom integration.

Unforutnetly I ordered the pre-order before I found out about IB's issues. I already sold off one of my sites that runs vB and switched the other to Invision Board. If IB doesn't change their ways before vB5 I'll switch our servers forums to another software. I'm very disappointed in IB and I've been a vB user since 2.x came out almost 8 years ago. The CMS is a joke, Blogs aren't used and the forums are a new design on the old 3.8 code with massive amounts of bugs. They forced release out with thousands of bugs and made the code "gold" when it shouldn't have.

My main issue is that they don't allow older styles to be used. I spent close to $300-400 on designs on one forum, and if I upgrade (which I'll need to do, as I get attacked by script kiddies about once a week), I'll have to convert them myself, or pay for it to be done.

Theres SOME good points, the template system IS nice, but the default design is garbage.

I'll donate a premium skin if it comes down to it.

Right now, I'm not sure most people will be producing much for vB4, due to all the crap they've pulled lately.

http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=231695

One of the few decent looking designs for vB4, at least thats free.

Desu what to do if your users are already registered on the forum? Is there the possibility of adding these users to the database? (With names and passwords forums). As the desire to conclude the template postbit_ name of the character and his faction (which was taken from the database).

P.S Sorry for my English thank you for this script!

Add the account name manually, and have them change pass. It'll change password for them.

The rest of our integration is probably not going to be released, as a lot of it is created to be just for our server.

Will this work for vBulletin 4.0?

I'm planning on having my developers work on something along this link too, as well as linking accounts to forum users.

It should work for vB4.0, but I suggest you not use vB4.0, as many other developers have boycotted it.

Internet Brands is reneging on their service agreement (3.x upgrade renewals).

I really can't understand why the account is created on forum... also is added on mysql but when i try to log in WoW not working "The information you have entered is no valid".

I use vB 3.8.4.

PS. Who has problems with register.php page and get an error from fetch_hook just replace

eval($hook)

with

@eval($hook)

.

There weren't any changes to the files, and it should work fine using the plugin and hook system, but we'll look into it.

If you have any suggestions, or have any problems, please post them here for me, as I'll try to get them worked on (The web developer for my project just finished finals, so has more time now).

Its really only ment to work with vBulletin -> Mangos, and for new databases.

Oh, give me a second.

I changed the dependency, however I suggest you use 3.8, because thats what I tested on.

Re-Download it, as I updated a version that will support up to 5.0.

It was -made- for 3.8.4.

If you're having a problem, I need to know what the problem is, not a vague response.

Planned Features:

• * Support for multiple realmd databases.
  * External configuration (./includes/realm_config.php).
  * Multiple account registration (Allow multiple accounts to link to main account).
  

;p they're planned for another release.

Due to time constraints, my web developer hasn't had much time to put into this (This wasn't our largest priority).

The configuration is currently IN the plugins, but it should be simple enough to change.

If you have any suggestions, please post them, so we can see about adding them.

Oh, give me a second.

F.A.Q.

Q: Are we supporting Trinity?

A: We will give -minimal- support to Trinity. The current version of the product works fine with Mangos and Trinity, and we do not see that changing.

Q: Will we release a version for vB4?

A: According to the developers I've talked to, other than templates, our product should work. As this product is for registration only, there should be no problems.

Planned Features:

• * Support for multiple realmd databases.
  * External configuration (./includes/realm_config.php).
  * Multiple account registration (Allow multiple accounts to link to main account).
