WP - vb bridge and strange user interactions
I am testing this plugin trying to get it ready to take to a production environment with vb 3.8.x and wp 3.1. I am currently the only natively registered user in WP along with a dummy user that is part of FeedWordPress (another WP plugin that feeds RSS items into posts).
When I have the bridge plugin turned off all posts and pages that I get are corrected attributed to me or the dummy Wordpress user for Feed WordPress. When I turn the bridge plugin on, some of those posts somehow get attributed to user #647 of my vb userbase who have never posted an post or a page in WP. Any idea how this could be happening and how to sort the matter? |
You will probably have to edit the authors after you have the bridge on. WP is checking the userid and when bridged, it thinks it is looking at the VB user.
I hope to get the latest version of the bridge released today which will also contain a tool for mass converting articles. |
Bear with me on this as this is really the last issue I need to solve before going live with this site.
I get the idea that WP is checking the userid and when bridged grabbing the name for that userid from vb. The thing that scares me is that there are only two users defined in WP right now, user 1 and 2. I can't possibly think of a scenario where posts or pages would be posted by user #647 as is happening now for some WP posts that are brought in from RSS feeds, etc. This would be really bad once the bridge is enabled and vb users in mass start posting and commenting on things in WP, since user #647 really does exist in vb and will wonder why or how somebody is posting under his name. |
On the WP install, have you created AND deleted users in the past?
|
Possibly, but only a few. Certainly no where near 600+. Is there something I should use to clean up a database?
|
Hmm nothing else I can think of would cause this.
|
I just uploaded a new version that has an article conversion tool. That should fix this issue for you. :)

It will convert all articles that are being displayed as written by VB user X to show them as written by VB user Y.

You just overwrite the files with the current ones.

In tools.

Do you have this line commented out?
Code:
define('USE_ADMINCP_BRIDGE', true); |

You have to check the box for the editor. See vbbridge settings:
"Enable Rich Text Editor" |
