XenWord 3.0.0.05 Alpha Available

[Gracie]

The XenWord 3.0.0.05 alpha is now available for download. This is still considered alpha by @LPH due to the directory structure re-arrangement. Please test before uploading onto a live production site.

-- Login to WordPress panel

-- Upload new version to server (I use the WP upload)

-- Deactivate older XenWord (Do not uninstall)

-- Log out of XenForo after you deactivate the plugin. Otherwise, you may get a conflict of user ids.

-- Login to WordPress with your WordPress admin account (XF and WP are no longer bridged).

-- Activate the new XenWord version

-- Logout and Login with XenForo admin ID.

-- Check settings in the XenWord panel.

Please post any issues in the bug forum. LPH is at a friend's house until escrow closes December 14. Internet connection is spotty.

Changes

Upgraded Redux Framework to v3.5.8.1
Added background color to widgets for easier identification
Fixed missing div tag in login widget, added CSS classes

Hello i have problem with the Sidebar (User Widget):



And since the last two updates, the portal is linked no longer really with the XenForo Forum! Use a forum default and enter a default forum not engaged

 

[Gracie]

The sidebar CSS is controlled in the xenword.css file. Modify the CSS to your theme's needs.

The default forum code hasn't been changed for quite some time. Please check your settings and see if something else has changed.

Hello Gracie,

It works so well not when I select the forum manually via XenForo Forums

Hello Gracie,

Do you mean by the drop down list of forums ?

 

[ReneS]

right, both variants do not work!

Start by looking at your settings for the absolute path and set everything to default in the XenWord options.

 

[ReneS]

We have not changed anything in the settings but

Can you take a screenshot of your settings?

I'm also having similar problems. Threads are not created even with default settings. The error message after clicking on the 'discuss' link is "The requested thread could not be found."

Here's a screenshot

Thank you for the screenshot.

1. Please turn off advanced user mapping.

2. Go to the post in the WP post area and look to the right for the metabox with the XenForo Thread ID. Is there a number?

3. Check the database to see if the WordPress tables were modified.

I turned off advanced user mapping as you suggested, there was no thread ID.

I have removed the new columns I added to Wordpress USer, Post and PostMeta tables (these were added to sync usedIDs)

I have uninstalled, reinstalled Xenword.

Threads are still not created. What else can you suggest?

 

[Gracie]

Are you seeing the forum_id, thread_id, resource_category_id, and resource_id in the wp_posts table?

 

[Big-K]

Those fields are not created in wp_post. I have just tried installing on a vanilla WP, and vanilla Xenforo. Still no luck. ..about to give up

 

[LPH]

If those fields are not being created then it's clear that the activation of the plugin is not modifying your WP database tables.

            $wpdb->query( "ALTER TABLE {$wpdb->posts} ADD `forum_id` INT( 10 ) UNSIGNED NOT NULL DEFAULT '0' AFTER `ID` " );
            $wpdb->query( "ALTER TABLE {$wpdb->posts} ADD `thread_id` INT( 10 ) UNSIGNED NOT NULL DEFAULT '0' AFTER `forum_id` " );
            $wpdb->query( "ALTER TABLE {$wpdb->posts} ADD `resource_category_id` INT( 10 ) UNSIGNED NOT NULL DEFAULT '0' AFTER `thread_id` " );
            $wpdb->query( "ALTER TABLE {$wpdb->posts} ADD `resource_id` INT( 10 ) UNSIGNED NOT NULL DEFAULT '0' AFTER `resource_category_id` " );
            $wpdb->query( "ALTER TABLE {$wpdb->users} ADD `xf_user_id` INT( 10 ) UNSIGNED NOT NULL DEFAULT '0' AFTER `ID` " );
            $wpdb->query( "ALTER TABLE {$wpdb->comments} ADD `XF_post_ID` INT( 10 ) UNSIGNED NOT NULL DEFAULT '0' AFTER `comment_post_ID` " );

Of course, you can simply create these fields manually in phpmyadmin or download XenWord 2.5.x, install and see if the tables are modified.

I'm finding this doesn't always fire -- and am in the middle of re-writing the activator file.
