Its been a long time and finally after 4 years I’m putting my WordPress hat back on and would like to start by picking up my WordPress framework and this plugin which got dropped for a full time career.
I still have my career just I will just begin to focus my extra time building and maintaining my coding projects going forward. Would like to start kicking the tires on what needs to be addressed in this outdated plugin for the next release if there are any workarounds I can resolve in code first.
I would like to have a 1.1.2 release to fix bugs if any and then plan a full upgrade to v2.0 if there is a considerable feature set that we can add to the code base.
Let me know in comments if anyone has any suggestions and if not I will start planning a minor upgrade at the least to bring code up to latest version of WP and to remove the out of date flag to start things off.
Glad to be back and now I need to install my development stack from scratch ?? This should be interesting
]]>Hi, I have been trying for days…
This is what I have. A main WP site on gringo-rio.com where the vanilla forum is embedded. The forum installation resides on a subdomain called therioforum.gringo-rio.com (in a folder in my bluehost account).
I have plugin Vanilla forums installed. I tried to set it up through that one but had no success.
I also have WP Vanilla Connect installed, but it doesn’t seem to work.
I am sure I have overseen something, please help if someone can!

]]>How the hell do I get rid of that awful gravatar connection? Everytime someone signs into vanilla with their WP account that ugly gravatar icon shows up. I’m aware that they can easily change the image, but obviously not everyone does and the thing is an eye sore. Please help!
]]>I’d like to change the text where it says “Sign In with” (on your example screenshot it shows “WordPress3” but on my site it doesn’t). I’ve looked through the files and can’t find that text anywhere. Can I edit it somehow? Thanks!
]]>Hey im having problems with my site using the plugin, everything works fine apart from the redirect on login ??
would love some help ??
]]>Why hasn’t this fix found its way into a new release?
Thanks
]]>This plugin is an absolute life saver.
Thanks so much for writing & sharing it!
]]>I have finally gotten to where on the Vanilla page, it detects my WP account and says “sign in with (username)”.. but when I do so I get the “bonk!” page.
I tried the url for known-signed in users and it was just blank. Any idea where to go from here?
]]>There are two profile of users: in wordpress and in Vanilla. Is it posiible to have only one profile?
And what about one regisration? So if user registered by Vanilla he cant log in WordPress…
]]>I have problem signing in again when I sign out from forum and try to sign in again with blog login credentials.
Here is the case
1> I sign in to forum with my blog admin username. This also signs me in to my blog.
2> The login works perfectly and redirects me to forum.
3> I logout from forum but it keepa me signed in to blog.
4> The page reaload and it displays my avatar and message “Sign in with Main Blog”. But this time the permalink to login changes to URL of my forum home page link “https://www.environmentabout.com/forum” instead of actual login url.
5> So when you click on the link, it pops up the screen with forum home page reloaded instead of username and password fields.
6> So I went back to my blog, logged out, returned back to forum, refreshes the page and the login works perfectly. It removes my avatar image and returns to login button
]]>I found the login redirect didn’t work on my site where I’m using the Vanilla Forums plugin to embed the forum in a WordPress page. (Vanilla is installed in a folder /vanilla )
In wp-vanilla-connect.php I added the text index.php?p= to change this:
function getVanillaAutoLoginURL(){
return $this->vanilla_host . ‘/entry/jsconnect?client_id=’ . $this->get_clientID();
}
to this:
function getVanillaAutoLoginURL(){
return $this->vanilla_host . ‘index.php?p=/entry/jsconnect?client_id=’ . $this->get_clientID();
}
and now it works just fine.
If making the change after installation you also have to go into the Vanilla jsConnect plugin and make the equivalent change to its login url.
Another thing to watch is the WordPress permalink setting. If left at default you can’t change the target page embed setting in the Vanilla Forums plugin. If you use a non-default permalink setting you can change the target page.
]]>I’ve installed this plugin, and jsQuery. Works as described.
However it could be better, currently if your sign into your wordpress and navigate to the forum, you still have to sign in, albeit you don’t have to use your password and username again, its just a single click. Am I doing something wrong? should example.com/wp-admin/ sign me into both without an additional click?
