Overview:
This hack provides single sign-on capability for MediaWiki using your vBulletin users. You must ensure your cookie path in Admin CP is set to '/' for this to work. Also, I have not tested this if your wiki and your forums are on different subdomains - but as long as your have your cookie domain set properly it *should* work. This is not a user bridge - it is a complete single sign-on using your vBulletin user repository.
The install process has been extremely simplified in version 2.x of this product. You only have to edit LocalSettings.php, import a product, and change a setting in your Admin Control Panel. It's been completely packaged as a vBulletin product - unlike the previous hacked up version, heh. I didn't originally plan to release this so I designed it so it worked - not so it could be redistributed. I searched high and low for a functional MediaWiki bridge - almost bought NuHIT's product, and then realized it had been abandoned for over a year.
This hack no longer requires an edit to class_core.php.
I'll do my best to support it, but I can make no promises.
This thread is for discussion of this mod on vB 3.8.x. For vB 3.7.x, please use the MediaWiki/vBulletin Single Sign-On 3.7 thread (http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=191186)
Demo of plugin in action: MyMMOGames - Multiplayer Gaming and Media Community (http://www.mymmogames.net/)
Also, if you use memcached - ensure you do not cache sessions. If you do, restart it at least once a week. If you don't, you'll end up with invalid session errors out of MediaWiki.
