Forums can be an important tool in branding yourself online. It could play an important role since you can offer advice and solutions to very specific problems.

@James LOL Actually, after posting the comment, I went out to see if there were any forum-WP integration plugins. There is a special distribution of WP and phpBB, but seemed like a bit of a kludge. I did check out a new forum software called Vanilla. They have a fair amount of documentation tied to their integration with WP (and their forums actually look half-way decent).

@ Santa Clau – Uh, King of Misfi – Uh, Jamie – Were you proposing building a plugin? We’d be up for that

@Harry I agree with your points about in-fighting and trolls, however, a good moderation strategy would curb that. Moderation comes in to flavors: good cop, bad cop. You have to have both in order to make it work. The good cop moderator encourages discussion and keeps people coming back (much as a good blogger will), the bad cop deals with the troublemakers…

Good thread here by the way. It would make an excellent forum topic. Maybe it would be nice to have a WP plugin that would tie all comments into a true forum post.

@Nicole – Shiraz! Genius! Why didn’t I think of that?

@Harry – Much appreciated. Extra sushi and cookies for you.

I had this idea, but I don't know that I could afford the amount of Shiraz it would take to pull it off. Now if we all pool our cash.... hmmm... Nicole Brunet´s last blog post...A Place in My Mind
