So happy with this !!
Double Wow !!
Thanks! I’m very pleased to hear you’re happy with it.
This plugin without the link costs 64% of the entire xenforo forum (which includes upgrades for a year and support). Does this plugin include free upgrades in the future?
Yes, the price will include access to any updates I make in the future (some small updates have already been published).
$39.99 Bridge
$89.99 Bridge + Branding Removal.
My feeling is these prices are too cheap !
Really … It is hard to say if these are great prices. Bridges are by their nature relatively unstable things. If there are changes in either of the software packages … the bridges can fail. If this bridge works well and keeps up with WordPress and Xenforo changes …. it is severely under priced. Good support for Bridges is definitely worth paying for !
Will it work upcoming stable xF 1.1 version?
Will I win one Million Euro in Lottery?
What kind of question du you ask? In current Beta it works. But no one knows what the changes are, that comes with the stable 1.1 . How can someone say: Yes, it works?
As Hoffi points out it seems to work fairly well with the xF 1.1 versions so far, so I have high hopes it will continue to do so. Obviously if it doesn’t then I will publish an update with any fixes needed.
Thanks for your interest
I got your point Hoffi, the reason I ask, I want to make sure our Jamie is very much alive. :p
I have seen many developer, they develop nice addon, then there is no support on time. I am sorry if I sound that stupid.
That’s a very reasonable concern, and I entirely understand why you asked. I can assure you that I will be working on this add on to add XF1.1 support where needed.
@Forum Lover: Yea, I know this. actually i throw off all Geek stuff l ike GARS for vB etc. – wated many time and money.
Vamos a ver si esto funciona bien. Es uso del foro la unica manera pare registrar?

Cool product. Congrats.
Is the only way a WordPress user can register is through the forum? Is there a way to register using xenforo’s registration system right in WordPress/
Also, are HTML tags shut off?
Hi, thanks for your interest. Currently the only way to register is with the XF system, but all registration links in wordpress are automatically redirected. HTML tags depend on your security settings within XenForo (so turned off by default, yes).
This could well be the hole-in-one product we’re looking for! Good work
Testing formatting
And this is a test of replying to a comment & notifications
I’ve just upgraded my test install of XenForo with 1.1 Beta 5. I didn’t have the WP Bridge installed on this test site before but have now installed it and found that I can no longer post comments in WordPress.
If I deactivate the plugin, I can see the comment box on WordPress but once reactivated, the comment box disappears. Posting comments in XF works fine and can be on WP.
That’s interesting, thanks for the report. Do you have any other WordPress plugins installed? Has anyone else seen this?
I run quite a few plugins on my own designed theme/wordpress install along with xenforo 1.1 beta 5 and have had no issues with comments come up. I can post them as usual.
What theme do you use peter?
Hey Jamie, any update bout new xf 1.1 and your script?
As far as I’m aware it’s working okay with XenForo 1.1
We’ve had a couple of bug reports recently, but I don’t think that they’re 1.1 related
Just bought the plugin with branding free option. Will play with it and report back if it’s working.
Thanks for your purchase. If you run into any issues let me know and I’ll get them fixed
I’ll start off with the Gravity problem. Will start thread in the support section as I have encountered any problem.
All these work with Xenscript’s bridge ?
Do you use XenDynamic ?
They all work with the bridge
I’ve not tried xendynamic, I like to keep church and state separate, I just let forum members comment in wordpress with their avatar. I did release a wordpress theme on xenforo.com that looks like xenforo a while back, but time and other commitments has left it gathering dust in a zip file someplace.
Very nice work!
How is the gravatar issue going? I see it’s not fixed yet.
We have a few outstanding bugs at the moment, progress should be made on them all over the Christmas period.
Just to give you an update, gravatars are now fixed. I’ll be making an update soon and this patch will be included in it.
Cool, is there any major issues? Caching thing got any updates so far Jamie?
There was one caching plugin that was reported to be working, but sadly not W3TC yet. I will have another look at W3TC soon, but in my first look into it I didn’t make a lot of progress
Can you explain the caching issue? What is this affecting?
Certain WordPress cache addons won’t work with the WP-XF bridge.
Looks like the DB Cache Reloaded addon does not conflict with the bridge.
W3 Total Cache won’t work with this bridge.
[Edited for correctness]December 12, 2011 19:28
December 28, 2011 Note: I am compiling a list of WP addons that are compatible and incompatible with xenscript’s bridge.
http://xenscripts.com/community/thr…mpatible-and-incompatible-with-the-bridge.50/
That’s correct, but it’s more the other way around. If you use both W3TC and my bridge it is the W3TC that won’t work at all (although it seems to pretend that it is).
Testing if it works…..
Reply test !
Test 123
Question. Did you guys get this to work with W3 Total Cache yet? I’m waiting for that fix until I get Xenforo
I am just leaving this comment from cms page. I am unsure where to check to see where it goes.
Goes here.

Very nice addon.
Thanks!
Curious if i have a subscription software would it work with it. I have emember ? ALso if i have a review plugin will it work in wordpress with xenforo name ?
I’m afraid I’m not familiar with that wordpress plugin so I can’t comment, if you’re interested in the plugin and would like to run some tests together then send me a PM please
Odd but will not let me PM you at all . I tried to start a conversation and there was not field to type msg.
I’m told that is a bug with firefox and XenForo – can you try a different browser?
Sent you msg.
Odd because you have this with inline style. I do not understand though it has element that has display none. It will be vanished because of this. I am not sure why it is hard coded because you can add CSS to do it all and not cause an issue. Firefox will display it.
<textarea style="height: 260px;" class="textCtrl MessageEditor" id="ctrl_message_html" name="message_html"></textarea>
I just compared with my version XF 1.1 and it is totally different as it does not have display none and just has hardcode height and width. Are you running latest version as it appears to be fixed.
Dear all,
can anyone from you who purchased the cheaper version of the license show me his integration on his website? I would like to see how the "little xenscripts branding" looks like
Thanks
Marco
Hey, I was wondering if this works with BuddyPress.
See your other post.
There are no reports of conflicts or success !
just testing…..
dear all,
as I’m not getting feedback or mail from anyone, I’ll try with you
I paid several hours ago the plugin license, but couldn’t find any download button. I never got even a mail with a download link.
Please, can anyone help me?
http://xenscripts.com/community/threads/how-do-i-download-the-script-after-purchasing.97/#post-582
I would need this urgently cause I was planning to launch the site tomorrow but…
Marco
See my response to your thread
Does this addon support the multi user feature in wordpress? I would like my users to be able to create their own blogs, so I am just wondering if this will do the job.
Also, if it does is it completely automatic? That is to say that if a user signs up, it automatically creates a blog for them to be able to post on? If so, how will that work with updating threads? Does each user get their own thread? Are they able to choose which thread gets updated?
Thanks.
nery nice script is therea lite version? would love to test before i buy
Hey,
Thanks for the interest. It does work with WPMU, though there have been some bugs with it in later WP versions and it has not been a particularly popular feature request. If you’d like to run some tests before buying then by all means send me a PM. It doesn’t create a blog for each user automatically, it is set up more in mind with you choosing which blogs you want.
No lite version as such, but I’m willing to do previews as needed. (PM / email me).
Best,
Jamie
Hi there,
Too late, I already purchased the script as I am in desperate need of users having blogs and patching in to the main site. I set it up, but it is not even allowing users to login to the main site using MU.
So, I have a few questions.
1) How do I set up xenforo to run wordpress MU along side of it? Aside from following the instructions (which I did), it does not work. I am using WP 3.3.1, should I be running an older version?
2) How do I make it for users to be able to automatically be added to their own blogs?
3) If you were to set it up to do all of this, what costs are we looking at? I don’t have that much money, but I am willing to pay to get the thing to work how I want it to. It would be a fantastic feature to the script.
Thanks.

"spam" test post 123 Hi all :3

Hmm the "View attachment 27" etc.. this would be a pain in the arse on a "big" image site.
edit = They also don’t link to the image.
Will this script work if WordPress and Xenforo are installed in different subdomains? ie:
http://www.example.com (WordPress)
http://forums.example.com (XenForo)
Assume both are on the same server, but using separate mySQL databases.
Probably will need some cookie modifications.
Hi,
I have a few pre-sales questions so I hope I’m in the right area:
1. On the post bridge part, is there a way for it to post just a partial post to my XenForo forum instead of full? The reason is I’m concerned about duplicate content. If I don’t need to worry could someone explain? I want my WordPress posts to be the ones indexed for this section of the forum.
2. I know this may be hard to answer, but what do I need to look for to make sure this is compatible with my WordPress theme ( I use Solostream ).
Thanks.
Ken
Thanks for the interest
1. If you don’t want to duplicate the content you currently have an option to post just the title and a link to the WordPress page in the forum thread, would that suit? I was working on an ‘abstract’ function of sorts as well.
2. If compatibility gets to be your only remaining concern then shoot me an email (holmes.jc@gmail.com) with your theme files and I’ll run a quick test to see if it all seems to work.
Best,
Jamie
Hi Jamie,
Hey thanks for the reply. I actually haven’t bought XF yet…probably this weekend. I’ll get that first and then hit you up on this for the theme compatibility issue.
Thanks.
Ken
Hi Jamie,
Just to be clear…so right now the bridge will not post an excerpt…just a link or the full post, correct?
Ken
Correct, the excerpt feature is not currently working.
I know it states users can log into WordPress with their Xenforo accounts.
What about WordPress to Xenforo?
Can somebody tell me if WordPress accounts are automatically bridged to XenForo with this plugin?
WordPress accounts are no longer really a thing with this plugin, Xenforo and it’s accounts are the basis for the new combined system.
Will this work if my XF and WordPress are on two separate databases?
Should do, although the wordpress db will be a lot less used than it currently is. If you need any help setting it up then do let me know.
Test
Hello
the script works with any wordpress theme? Or we need – to install bridge – a special wp theme?
thank you
joao barroca
Can’t guarantee support for every theme, but it should work with most
You certainly aren’t locked into a special theme.
Jamie
Hello,
I’m interested in purchasing the Xenforo to WordPress bridge, but just wanted to clarify that it is compatible with the latest wordpress version 3.5.1 and latest Xenforo build?
Regards,
Paul
Hello there! Testing this out. Will probably buy!
hi
I’m planning to buy the Xenforo to WordPress bridge, does it work well with WordPress 3.5.1 without a bug? is it possible if i buy, it you’ll gonna install it for me? or does it have a sample testing program before purchasing it.
