Integration with other things (like Wordpress/OtherBlogSystem/...)

Felli

I'm pretty sure that Flarum would easily be able to integrate with Anchor CMS.

vicvinc

Felli hope to see this.

Yeah, a comment system easily integrated with other CMS could be such an amazing thing ! By the way, if the notification system and the user interface system could be integrated too... Wow, it could be a dream 🙂

Dominion

@Toby has mentioned this briefly elsewhere:

Toby Any sort of Wordpress integration ability?

Yes, this is planned. Again, as an extension.

Though come to think of it, he might have meant integration of the authentication system...

Aesahaettr

Dominion As in log in to WordPress and you'll also log in to Flarum?

Dominion

Yes, but bear in mind that's only my speculation as to what he might have meant.

I'd like to use Flarum instead of something like bbPress/BuddyPress for one site I've got planned...

... So I'm looking forward to learning more. 🙂

Aesahaettr

Dominion I'm honestly so fed up with bbPress and BuddyPress that I've already uninstalled both of them in anticipation of Flarum integration.

Aesahaettr

@Dominion BTW, are you new be to being a mod here or were you always one?

Dominion

Nope, just started today! 🙂

Aesahaettr

Dominion How do I join in? I've been on here a lot ever since I joined and feel like I'll be helping more once I get more comfortable with it.

Dominion

I think it's one of those things where, if it's going to happen, it'll happen. 😉

Let's try to keep this discussion on Flarum/WP integration, please.

thangngoc89

Any news on this ? I would love to have this implemented. I'm looking for a self-hosted comment solution for my blog and something like Discourse is what I want. But I prefer Flarum since it's cheaper to host a Flarum website

Dominion

thangngoc89 There's no news at this point; the devs are still working on getting Flarum stable.

Please note that this topic in Dev is here for use by any third-party developers who want to tackle this project. If you're looking to express your interest in a bridge solution for Wordpress, describe the features you'd like to see in that solution, etc., then please add your voice to this thread instead.

If you'd like a bridge for a different blogging platform, feel free to start a new discussion about it!

thangngoc89

hi Dominion . Thanks for responding. I'm not looking for a Wordpress plugin. I'm looking for a general comment system for anyblog. It should be as simple as Discourse.

My last time working with Laravel (and PHP) is like 2 years ago so I'm not in the best shape for implementing this. But I'll try my best to describe the plugin.

jordanjay29

thangngoc89 Actually, there is an extension for that right now (although no one has written the documentation to use it). flarum-ext-embed will embed a discussion disqus-style.

thangngoc89

jordanjay29 Didn't know about that. Some simple docs would be better. ?

ArjunChandran

Integration with WordPress would be a nice idea ?

MathieuM

ArjunChandran Well, IMHO, it could be a lot more useful if Flarum could extend any CMS comment system ?

Wordpress is the most known CMS, but there are some others. For example, in France, we have a brilliant project named Dotclear ?

meetdilip

WordPress integration plans are already listed under roadmap. I am not sure which release will have it though.

luceos

meetdilip wordpress integration is also a very wide statement. Toby actually has already done some work to allow for cross authentication. This applied experience might come in handy once the Wordpress integration has to start, but what that entails in detail.. who knows ?
