Myself no. Haven't used it in an actual normal environment. I mainly updated the mod so it could work on newer versions of SMF.

Well, how does it work in a normal environment?  I can start there.  I've got a few WP pages of content I'd like accessible from the smf.

I don't know any of the steps to use this.

Does the Wordpress install need to be inside SMF?

I constantly hit this message when trying to locate the wp-config.php file

Your WP path is invalid! could not locate wp-config.php
Ideally, I am trying to use Wordpress as my site and then have SMF as a community extension. I have input the location but nothing seems to work.

Take a look at this post:

Read my entire conversation with vbgamer45 and you'll get to the solution.

@jsx May I ask if you tried with the latest version of WordPress?

I'm a little torn between using this or the Tiny Portal app, yet as a content creator, WordPress fulfils a lot more of my needs if a bridge works.

@vbgamer45 It works with WordPress 6.1.1, but it looks like something isn't quite playing nicely.

I installed an older version of WordPress to test; it worked flawlessly (5.6.10) but now with 6.1.1 if I log out using WordPress it doesn't log me out of SMF.

If I log out of SMF, it logs me out of WordPress.

My error log shows this message every time I sign out.

It also shows this:

wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php (Line 310)

Would you please be able to look into this issue?

I am not currently using WordPress.

I am experiencing the same issue on another fresh install, this one runs WordPress 5.6.10 and the same error comes up when logging out of WordPress.

2: call_user_func_array() expects parameter 1 to be a valid callback, function 'rest_cookie_collect_status' not found or invalid function name

I asked a friend to check the plugin, he's managed to fix the WordPress side sign-out sync with SMF. However, he's tried various things to fix the the sign-in sync.The SMF plugin by VBgamer works perfectly.

It will sign in and out of WordPress.It's the WordPress side which is broken.I would love to be able to bring my sites and projects to WordPress/SMF. I am hoping the sign-in sync can be fixed, I could pay but it depends on the amount. Unfortunately, I can't afford over $150, even this might be a push for me due to the cost of living.

It's a shame others who want to see a well maintained bridge supported by a reliable dev, like @vbgamer45 or @Douglas. SMF is a great option for a forum and community, whereas WordPress for content like articles, features etc gives a reason to bring in people.
