Using the phpBB users table for logging in
This is a very simple hack to get Wikka to read from the users table of a phpBB database rather than its own. It is assuming that you have installed your Wikka into the same database as phpBB and that your phpBB tables are prefixed with "phpbb_" ("phpbb3_" for the v3.0 examples) and that their names have not been edited.
This will allow users from your phpBB forum to login to your wiki with their existing username and password.
Please note that for suggested changes phpBB and wikka should use the same database - otherwise it is necessary to give rights to wikka's database to read phpBB's database - and to write name of phpBB's database before its tables.
Note: these methods are used to integrate phpBB 2.x. For phpBB 3.x, see Using Wikka with phpBB3

I changed several things in the highscores.php code. Mostly they were changing the "name" to "username" but there was also the table prefix thing that had to be fixed up. Here's the full code:

Wikka Wiki and phpBB: using phpBB user information and allow Wikka-specific user settings
Added on July 29, 2005 by EniBevoliI still have to make a easily readable diff output (such as "Find" - "Replace with" above; I already translated some text strings to German, so diff'ing is currently a mess) so that other users can edit their own files, but since I have finally come to a solution outlined below, I thought it would be a beneficial for others to simply post my results right away. The existing work on the Wikka Wiki / phpBB integration was a big starting point; without this information, I wouldn't even had a clue what to do. :)
Features / How it works:
- Wikka uses phhBB for user logins, i.e. name and password of users are authenticated against the phpBB database
- Users can configure some Wikka-specific settings via the User Settings page (for some settings, there is no point in changing them at the User Settings page; e.g., the email or the password field: the user should change this in his phpBB profile)
- Whenever an existing phpBB user logs into Wikka, a Wikka user with the same name is created - if it does not already exist - for storing Wikka-specific settings (such as show_comments) as there is no counterpart for such settings in phpBB (and I don't want to alter the phpBB table structure)
Requirements:
- After the integration of Wikka Wiki and phpBB is done, user registration via Wikka Wiki must be disabled, new accounts should only be added via phpBB; see UserRegistration for more information about how to disable user registration
It took me quite some time to figure out why turning off "double click edit" didn't work - it is a bug with Wikka Wiki 1.1.6.0. :) I don't include the bug fix here, since it is already outlined in WikkaBugs.
Changed files:
- wikka.php
- handlers/page/acls.php
- handlers/page/show.php (to fix the double click edit bug)
- actions/usersettings.php
- actions/highscore.php
As I said, I'm still compiling the changes in an easily readable format and will update this page when I'm done.
To Do / Questions / Open Issues:
- phpBB users with non-camelcase usernames (e.g., "John") seem to work flawlessly on my installation even though I expected problems; any comments from the developers?
- I am quite sure that the code quality is...ahm..."suboptimal". I basically tried to get it to work in the first place (I downloaded WikkaWiki today for the first time), so please don't flame me; instead, help to fix it!
CategoryUserContributions
1) No :)
2) If you register a new user in wikka, the data is written into wikkas user table. So you'd have to change the registration to write into the phpBB table.
Seems to me you'll need to modify the structure on the phpBB_users table as well. There are some fields wikkawiki wants that phpBB does not have...
wiki.anim8or.org
However, I am stuck on how to integrate the wiki into the phpbb templates. With most phpbb files, you just stick on the following code in php:
define('IN_PHPBB', true);
$phpbb_root_path = '../';
include($phpbb_root_path . 'extension.inc');
include($phpbb_root_path . 'common.'.$phpEx);
//
// Start session management
//
$userdata = session_pagestart($user_ip, PAGE_INDEX);
init_userprefs($userdata);
//
// End session management
//
include($phpbb_root_path . 'includes/page_header.'.$phpEx);
include($phpbb_root_path . 'includes/page_tail.'.$phpEx);
and yer set.
However, with Wikka, I have found header.php which has most of the header information, but I always get errors with phpbb when I try to add the above in multiple ways to the file.
Has anyone successfully integrated the phpbb overall_header/footer into their Wikka installation? If not, any more hints on how to get past the errors?
so that the users see only log on nothing else, as there need to register in the forum and if there lose there passowrd, there need to request this from the forum, any idea, how i can hide that part in wikki?
regards
Thanks!
On the usersettings page the whole forgot password should be replaced with the following: (basically line 258 onwards should be this:
<?php
print($this->FormClose());
?>
<form action="../***YOURFORUMLOCATION***/profile.php?mode=sendpassword" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="updatepass" />
<table>
<tr>
<td colspan="2"><br /><hr /><h4>Forget your password?</h4></td><td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="left">Your UserName:</td>
<td><input name="username" maxlength="40" size="40" value="" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="left">Your Email:</td>
<td><input name="email" size="40" maxlength="255" value="" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" class="mainoption" /></td>
</tr>
</table>
<?php
print($this->FormClose());
}
?>
--
That will now instead force the user to use your Forum's Forgot Password feature instead :o)
On an aside this wiki software is really nice just started using it today actually... I do see one feature that be nice to add to the software as people above mentioned the whole admin in forum == admin in wiki, the easiest way I think to do that be to check the user_level in the phpbb_users table, if I figure out a hack for that I will post it here too.
for making phpbb admins / special rank admins in wikkawiki:
replace the IsAdmin() function with:
function IsAdmin() {
if ($this->config["admin_users"] == "")
{
$wakkaAdmins = $this->LoadSingle("SELECT count(username) FROM phpbb_users LEFT JOIN phpbb_user_group ON phpbb_users.user_id = phpbb_user_group.user_id WHERE group_id =2 OR group_id =3
AND username = \"".$this->GetUserName()."\" GROUP BY username");
$wakkaAdmins = implode(" ", $wakkaAdmins);
if ($wakkaAdmins == 1)
{
$this->config["admin_users"] = 1;
return true;
}
else
{
$this->config["admin_users"] = 0;
return false;
}
}
else
{
if ($this->config["admin_users"] == 1)
{
return true;
}
else
{
return false;
}
}
}
also make in your wikka.config.php file make the variable
"admin_users" into ""
--
groupid=2 -> Site Admin in phpbb
groupid=3 -> Not required if you dont want to give another group admin powers, in my case I created a group called "Wiki Wizards" in phpbb, assigned it to one person found out the actual id# by looking at the db (3 in this case) and I now can allow, people to be
--
Basically since this is called roughly 3-4 times each time the page is displayed, I made it that the very 1st time the script checks for admin rights, subsequent times it will look to see if your are admin(1) or not (0).
*and if the owner of the page wants to add this code feel free :o)*
The problem was that the number of recent changes to display could not be read from the users table (because it was missing) and therefore the script failed. Adding the necessary fields to the phpbb_users table solved the issue.
I managed to launch this mod under version 1.1.6.2. Here come changes to given recommendations:
1. phpBB and wikka should use the same database - or it is necessary to give rights to wikka's database to read
phpBB's database - and to write name of phpBB's database before its tables.
/libs/Wakka.class.php
2. LoadUser - make as given, just don't forget about (1).
3. LoadUsers - same as (2).
4. GetUserName - same as (2).
5. SetUser - it might have another names of cookies instead of given ones:
function SetUser($user)
{
$_SESSION["user"] = $user;
$this->SetPersistentCookie("user_name", user["username"]);
$this->SetPersistentCookie("pass", $user["user_password"]);
}
(or check what are your cookies' names).
/handlers/page/acls.php
6. Operator "print" was replaced in Wikka by operator "echo", so we need to replace
echo "\t".'<option value="'.$this->htmlspecialchars_ent($user['name']).'">'.$user['name'].'</option>'."\n";
with
echo "\t".'<option value="'.$this->htmlspecialchars_ent($user['username']).'">'.$user['username'].'</option>'."\n";
/actions/usersettings.php
7. replace
case (md5($_POST['password']) != $existingUser['password']):
with
case (md5($_POST['password']) != $existingUser['user_password']):
8. /actions/highscores.php - make as given.
So everything works ok. We just have to remove fields for registering and changing of password.
To enhance - we might make wikka use phpBB's sessions in order not to enter login and password if we already did login
to phpBB.
I hope authors of mod will change according to last version of Wikka.
Thanks.

OTOH,
> We just have to remove fields for registering and changing of password.
The good news is that Wikka admins can toggle on/off user registration as of Wikka 1.1.7 (code already available in our SVN repository).
$max = MAX_REVISION_NUMBER;
$readable = 0;
echo $this->Format(RECENT_CHANGES_HEADING.' --- ');
if ($pages = $this->LoadRecentlyChanged())
{
$curday = '';
//print feed link icon
echo '<p><a href="'.$this->href('recentchanges.xml', $this->page['tag']).'"><img src="images/xml.png" width="36" height="14" alt="XML" /></a></p>'."\n";
//if ($user = $this->GetUser())
//{
// $max = $user['changescount'];
//} else
//{
// $max = MAX_REVISION_NUMBER;
//}
Essentially, all this does is set
$max = MAX_REVISION_NUMBER; and the RecentChanges should work again.
