I've been working for the past day or so on getting Wordpress the play nicely with Codeigniter. I have a parent application written in Codeigniter that I'm trying to use to control access to a Wordpress install.
I've had okay luck so far with getting a Codeigniter instance (via get_instance()) to show up and made the necessary modifications to get the two applications to stay out of each other's way for the most part.
However, I'm up against a wall now with regard to anything past the root index.php of the Wordpress site.
URL's look like /parent/content/external/wordpress where "parent" is the Codeigniter root folder and wordpress is the Wordpress root folder.
I can load up example.com/parent/content/external/wordpress (with or without index.php) but anything like wordpress/sample-page results in a Codeigniter 404 error.
It seems like Codeigniter is trying to resolve the URL to a controller and method, but failing. I am getting 404 errors in my CI logs that point to the first segment of the Wordpress url (sample-page in the example above).
Does anybody know how I might get CI to stop trying to resolve when loaded via the code that was shoved into the Wordpress index.php file?
Contents of that file pasted below. Thank you!
<?php
// BEGIN: CodeIgniter setup
// Remove the query string
$_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] = '';
// Include the codeigniter framework

require('/home/magicmag/magicmagazine.com/x/index.php');
// Create CI instance
$CI =& get_instance();
// Authenticate user with custom redirect
$CI->user = $CI->xlib->isLoggedIn(FALSE);
// Custom redirect
if(!$CI->user) {
redirect('/user/login?d=/content/ext/magic-live-2015');
}
#ToDo: Rewrite this so that the destination is determined by current URL or by the starting URL of the external content
// Check for existing auth
if(!isset($CI->user['ext-magic-live-2015'])) {
// User isn't currently authenitcated to the external content
// Try to authentical
$CI->user['ext-magic-live-2015'] = $CI->xlib->hasExtAccess($CI->user['userId'], '1'); // MAGIC Live is extId 1
// If authenticated
if($CI->user['ext-magic-live-2015']) {
// Store it in the session
$CI->session->set_userdata('ext-magic-live-2015', $CI->user['ext-magic-live-2015']); #ToDo fix hardcoded name
} else {
// Not authenticated
$CI->session->set_flashdata('danger', 'You do not have access to that content.');
redirect('/');
}
}
// END: CodeIgniter setup
