bbwrapper -- WBB2 ... where did this go in the download file?

I downloaded the free storyteller and have WBB1.0.1 installed. WBB folks say 1.1.1 and 1.2 are outdated, and I am testing things out before paying for anything (Storyteller and WBB)....

It seems to be that WBB 1.0.1 is using code from WBB2.0 as I cannot get the WBB1 bbwrapper to work properly. The StoryTeller Control Panel link goes to the WBB CP, but the Login still comes up as the Storyteller log in.

I wanted to try the WBB2 bbwrapper to see if that would work since it seems like your WBB bbwrappers are out of date, but my download doesn't include the WBB2 bbwrapper, just the WBB1 bbwrapper.

Thanks in advance.

A bulletin board wrapper for Burning Board 2.3.x is already available for licensed users. This wrapper will be also included in the next freeware version.

I need a SQL dump with some users, forums, postings etc. to update the wrapper. If you are interested to provide a dump, please send me a PM.

Unfortunatly, the overall interest in bbwrappers for WBB is very low. Most users prefer vBulletin or Invision Power Board.


Well, that's understood, but as stated before I was willing to provide whatever information needed for the 2.x wBB forums to get the bbwrapper updated (it worked with prior versions so a re-write wouldn't be expected).....

I was looking to use this CMS again, but see no progress has been made toward improved wBB integration....which is disheartening since this CMS has loads of potentional for several of my sites!

If you need a SQL dump of WBB 1.0.1 lite (their current free version), then let me know what I need to do....email me the steps and I will get you what you need to help improve your CMS and wrapper capabilities! I'd do this ASAP......just let me know!

Email me @ smackdaddy (at) pctoolbin (dot) com

Thank you.

After much trial and error, and even trying to code the script differently, I cannot get the wrapper working for WBB 1.0.1 ..... new users get an activation email, but they are not listed in either database of users.

Also found that the wrapper is using bb1_user_table when WBB 1.0.1 now just uses bb1_users -- even after editing that, I couldn't get it to work. *sigh*

Please help....especially since there's no WBB2 in my download and the docs say it's supposed to be there.....
