You're welcome to try. email roblef@gmail.com and I'll set you up an ftp account and get you db privs.</p>roblefTue, 01 Sep 2009 01:20:32 -0000http://www.akwpug.org/?p=1#comment-15694486<p>Yeah, if you want to give me access, I can take a look at it, or here's the link to the guide that I've used to integrate Vanilla with WordPress before: <a href="http://lussumo.com/docs/doku.php?id=vanilla:integration:wordpress" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="http://lussumo.com/docs/doku.php?id=vanilla:integration:wordpress">http://lussumo.com/docs/dok...</a></p><p>You don't have to modify the database directly, just some of the Vanilla configuration, to use the WordPress user table instead of its' own.</p>Brandon WoodTue, 01 Sep 2009 00:32:30 -0000http://www.akwpug.org/?p=1#comment-15694295<p>Hey, Brandon, if you'd like to mess about with the db tables and such to integrate Vanilla, please let me know. I gave it a try and ended up having to re-install.</p>Rob LeFebvreTue, 01 Sep 2009 00:26:07 -0000http://www.akwpug.org/?p=1#comment-15448317<p>I guess the only value I see is a way for us to connect locally, rather than<br>nationally. So, basically, the same value a local user group provides,<br>spread to the online world.</p>roblefWed, 26 Aug 2009 21:52:19 -0000http://www.akwpug.org/?p=1#comment-15388520<p>I've also used <a href="http://vanillaforums.org/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="http://vanillaforums.org/">Vanilla</a>, which can be integrated with WordPress fairly easily.</p><p>I guess the big question as far as needing/wanting a Forum as part of the site, is what value will it provide over what's already present on other sites? </p>BrandonTue, 25 Aug 2009 20:40:36 -0000http://www.akwpug.org/?p=1#comment-15387701<p>Ooo i dig this commenting disqus deal</p>Oscar Avellaneda-CruzTue, 25 Aug 2009 20:23:42 -0000http://www.akwpug.org/?p=1#comment-15385810<p>Yeah, that sounds like it might work. I'm wondering about forums, though. Any suggestions on easily managed, not easily hacked ones? I've used bbpress, smf, and phpbb. all have positives and negatives.</p><p>Thoughts?</p>Rob LeFebvreTue, 25 Aug 2009 19:56:57 -0000http://www.akwpug.org/?p=1#comment-15341033<p>Hey Rob, this sounds like a really fun idea. I guess I would expect it it mostly be online, maybe a forum/online discussions, with something like bi-monthly "real world" meetings.</p>BrandonTue, 25 Aug 2009 00:33:59 -0000http://www.akwpug.org/?p=1#comment-15337762<p>Cool. Glad you're here. I guess we need to see how folks would like to organize. Real life meetings? Online Discussions? Forums? Membership/Fees? Dunno.</p>roblefMon, 24 Aug 2009 22:42:23 -0000http://www.akwpug.org/?p=1#comment-15336628<p>@roblet - Glad you have jumped in on this.
