in your WP Admin, make sure your Permalinks are setup to use the URI structure and not get vars.

Hi phil,

I encountered a major problem in my setup ( didn’t look at until now),

My dx_auth doesn’t work anymore and i think it has to do with sessions. When i disable the WP intergration it works but when i enable WP. the logged_in isn’t working anymore

i guess this returns false
return $this->ci->session->userdata(‘DX_logged_in’);

do you know how to solve this session problem???

I havn’t tried in a sub folder, you may need to override your auto-links etc to be relative to your CI install

HI alex,
in your loop in CI view you should be able to call the_permalink(); – this will auto generate the post link for you.. the problem is, you need to either have a module/controller structure setup in CI to handle those requests, or get creative with your CI routes and push all ^/blog to a wp controller that handles parsing the request.

Sorry about commenting 3 times but this one explains it a bit better (i hope)

I have a CI install and WP in a subfolder. I can pull the posts in my CI views.
I am having a bit of problem with the link to a wp-post. it doesn\’t work.

Even the default from wp-admin and preview post ?p=123 doesn\’t work.

As i have installed WP in a subfolder i also tried /blog/?p=123
I also disabled .htaccess

I the end i would be happy if all wp-posts are like reachable by /blog/seo-title
and parsed with a CI view

Any tips, suggestions??

regards

Hello Phil, Thank you for your post, I got some idea how CI work with WP.
Since the way you wrote is CI power up the website, not WP.
Basically the advantage just have a ready WP backend, and can directly use some of the WP function.

the page is generate from $this->load->view , correct me if I am wrong.

My goal is actually use WP to power up the website, inside the themes folder, I can use CI to power up the theme. is that possible?

Sorry, don\’t mean to \"spam\" the comments but I figured out what was wrong with my code.
it wasn\’t that codeigniter destroyed the $wp_query object but that to access it, I had to add

global $wp_query

to my code. in case someone, sometime encounters the same problem. rookie mistake on scope
