    Your plugin is dangerous. You are inserting database login credentials into the db in clear text without any encryption. Imagine if the Wordpress blog gets hacked. Then they get full access to a forum as well as a bonus.

    I will use RSS instead.

    Hi there, I see your point.

    Unfortunately I don’t know how to encryt a password for a MySQL database but for security I set a new user for my VBulletin db with read-only permission.

    Maybe an aclaration with this may be usefull.

    Thanks for your support.-

    Hi there. Did you go to the control panel and configure the plugin settings as in the picture ?

    Which version of vBulletin do you have ?

    I can’t do much because I don’t have access to your vBulletin DB but try to execute the next SQL statement in your vBulletin DB:

    SELECT title, threadid, lastpost FROM thread ORDER BY lastpost DESC LIMIT 10

    This is the query in the line 62.

    If you don’t know how to execute queries, normally your web hosting provider has online tools like PHP MyAdmi, you can find it in your web hosting’s page or control panel.

    Or you can use third party free programs like MySQL Control Panel, MySQL Yog, etc.

    Good luck.-

    I think there is a user validation problem as seen on line 39. There are no reports of user validation problems with the plugin.

    You can see the plugin working online here: PLG Rosario.

    Try too solve the validation problem. If you can’t, please let me know to see what I can do for you.

    Try this: Google search.

    Good luck.-

  9. Peter Says:

    hahaha hola :D , estaba probando su plugin para mi foro pero me encuentro con el error de la base de datos , estaba viendo su foro es algo asi como hacerlo por rss?

  10. admin Says:

    No. Directamente accede a la DB de un Foro vBulltin via PHP. Mirá, ese error que te da inicial parece de validación de usuario, estás seguro que el usuario/contraseña están bien ?

    Cualquier cosa mi email es plmad666 en gmail. La seguimos por ahí si te es más cómodo.

    Saludos.-

    te he agregado al chat de gmail

    i agregue todos los datos bien lo revise varias veces el nombre del
    MySQL host
    vBulletin’s database name
    vBulletin’s database username
    vBulletin’s database password

    agregue todo eso pero aun aparece el error

  12. admin Says:

    Lo probaste desde algún otro programa con los mismo datos a ver si te podés conectar bien y obtenet algún QUERY ?

    Fijate este es el que uso yo para trabajar con DBs: SQL Yog.

    Tiene una versión gratuita. Es bastante práctico.
