phpBB2 Implementation Contribtion


Guest

Recommended Posts

Only difference is that I have a *slightly* modified login.php, renamed login_bb.php, so that I don't go back to the main website after logging in at via the forum login link.

 

Yes I am interested too in this slighty modified login_bb.php. How did you do it? Its so anoying how the forum goes out to the main page to login in users and then back to the index page for the catalog.

let's see if I can piece this back together, it wasn't that hard, just had to put together a few pieces.

 

1) I copied login.php to login_bb.php, put it in the same directory.

2) modifications to login_bb.php were as follows (as reported by my weak memory aided by WinMerge):

 

find this:

// restore cart contents
       $cart->restore_contents();

       if (sizeof($navigation->snapshot) > 0) {
         $origin_href = tep_href_link($navigation->snapshot['page'], tep_array_to_string($navigation->snapshot['get'], array(tep_session_name())), $navigation->snapshot['mode']);
         $navigation->clear_snapshot();
         tep_redirect($origin_href);
       } else {
         tep_redirect(tep_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT));
       }
     }
   }
 }

 

and change it to this:

 

// restore cart contents
       $cart->restore_contents();

       if (sizeof($navigation->snapshot) > 0) {
         $origin_href = tep_href_link($navigation->snapshot['page'], tep_array_to_string($navigation->snapshot['get'], array(tep_session_name())), $navigation->snapshot['mode']);
         $navigation->clear_snapshot();
         tep_redirect($origin_href);
       } else {
         tep_redirect(tep_href_link(FILENAME_BB_LOGGED_IN));
       }
     }
   }
 }

 

 

change this:

 

<!-- body_text //-->
   <td width="100%" valign="top"><?php echo tep_draw_form('login', tep_href_link(FILENAME_LOGIN, 'action=process', 'SSL')); ?><table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
     <tr>

 

to this:

<!-- body_text //-->
   <td width="100%" valign="top"><?php echo tep_draw_form('login', tep_href_link(FILENAME_LOGIN_BB, 'action=process', 'SSL')); ?><table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
     <tr>

 

3) add to catalog/includes/filenames.php:

 

  define('FILENAME_LOGIN_BB', 'login_bb.php');
 define('FILENAME_BB_LOGGED_IN', 'bb_logged_in.php');

 

it doesn't really matter where you add it, but I put it right under

  define('FILENAME_LOGIN_BB', 'login.php');

 

for code cleanliness purposes.

 

You may have realized that due to some redirection issues, the forums may all be in https until you click an HTTP link. The problem is that you can't send an HTTP redirect command from https (login page) to http (regular pages) without the browser popping up a warning. So, the login page redirects you to from https (login page) to https (forums), and unless you click on an explicit http link (like somewhere in the catalog) then the entire forum area will be https. Sure, you can configure the browser not to pop the warning, but your customers are not each going to do that just for your website.

 

So, I added another page (as you may have noticed in the code above), catalog/bb_logged_in.php, just to have the users click an HTTP link to "continue" to the forums, so that the forum links would not all be https. You probably don't want all the overhead of an entirely https forum.

 

The code for that page is as follows:

The page itself is pretty generic - - the only purpose it serves is to avoid the "you are being redirected from a secure page to a non-secure page" type error messages.

 

I think that's it!

I forgot to include the code that actually changes the "login" link to point to login_bb.php instead of login.php. I *think* that it is the following:

 

in includes/modules/phpbb2/includes/, make sure to have the login/logged out section read like this (I don't remember how it reads originally):

 

//
// Generate logged in/logged out status
//
if ( $userdata['session_logged_in'] )
{
$u_login_logout ='logoff.'.$phpEx;
$l_login_logout = $lang['Logout'] . ' [ ' . $userdata['username'] . ' ]';
}
else
{
$u_login_logout = 'login_bb.'.$phpEx;
$l_login_logout = $lang['Login'];
}

Hey everyone I am about to attepmt to install phpbb and merge it with osc when i get home and I am wondering cause I dont want major problems how did you set up the directory?

 

/catalog/phpbb2/?

 

or did you just put all the sub categories from phpbb and put them in /catalog/ so the admin for phpbb goes in the admin for the shop?

The missing file was page_header.php[\quote]

Since adding the boards, is anyone getting reports from customers that items are being mysteriously added/removed from their carts?

How would I add just the osc header and footer to the phpbb board?

I believe it's there by default.

 

The header gets called in modules.php, and the footer gets called in one of the other files - - don't remember but can go look if yours is not working.

Hi,

 

I have installed chaveiro's PHPBB 2.0.8a Contribution. I got everything to work, except that I cannot go into admin.

 

When I type:

http://localhost/catalog/admin/bb_default.php in my browser, I get the following error:

 

 
Fatal error: Failed opening required 'includes/configure.php' (include_path='.;c:\php4\pear') in C:\FoxServ\www\catalog\includes\application_top.php on line 29

 

My line 29 in application_top.php looks like this:

 

  
require('includes/configure.php');

 

 

 

Any Ideas?

 

Thanks,

David

I downloaded this contribution but it's basically the entore PHPBB with all the mods. Is there a list of steps required to get a single sign on working

 

I already have PHPBB on my development environment and have made a lot of mods to integrate it into the site and my next step was single sign on. However if it has been done I may as well leaverage the work someone has done on it and save some time.

Hi,

 

I've just installed the phpBB2 contribution on MS2 with a BTS (Basic Template System) mod also installed, and at the second (and much more careful) install I have a partially working install.

 

1) When I click on the Forum link (in the information box) I get a blank error page which says 'Sorry file does't exist.' The URL looks wrong to me which I suspect may be a php setting as the & signs appear as html eg:

 

http://www.mydomain.co.uk/modules.php/op/m...;file/index.php

 

The rest of the shop stillworks correctly. And I can get into the forum through the admin address. It is hosted on an Apache webserver

 

If anyone can help it would be greatly apprecciated.

 

Cheers

 

 

Andy

Hi Brainstorm

 

Read around the forums abit, search for topics like phpbb2 etc. All the answers are out there. The phpbb2 implementation isnt quite the tidiest contribution, quite a few bugs that have been discussed and fixed in these forums. I got mine working and I the not admin screen problem, its a file called bb_defualt. Look around and see what you can find and ask me any specific question through PM if you like.
