PP+vB Permissions Problem

[melwade]

We have photopost installed here;

http://board.deco-pages.com

and we have just added vBulletin here:

http://board.deco-pages.com/forums

I used the script provided on this forum to transfer the users. I have turned on the integration and I can login using my vBulletin username, but I don't have any permissions on the PP install.

What should I be looking for?

And now my gallery navigation has gone away...

The import script only imports users. Did you properly realign Photopost to integrate with vb3 per other threads on switching integrations.

All these are done and I'm still missing something. So the GroupIDs have to match between the two?

FWIW, I wish the documentation for this was all in one place. It is frustrating to have to look all over the forums to find answers.

[Chuck S]

Yes the groupid's need to match and the steps are as outlined in the post I linked.

[melwade]

OK. I'll change the PhotoPost IDs so they will match the rights in the vBulletin.

Can all this documentation be compiled in one place in the support section. I've found pieces of information all over the place and I never know for sure if I have all the pieces.

That did the trick. I renumbered the groupid field in pp_usergroups to match what was in vBulletin.

I have one more problem to resolve. The Categories, Most Popular, and other elements don't show on the front page unless a user is logged in. We want them to show even to guests, but we can't find a setting in PhotoPost to make this happen.

Admin => Edit categories set usergroups permissions for viewing etc as you want.
