A) Can I enter more than 1 Forum for cross-posting? Means depending on the Category for example?

B) Is it possible to define the Posting Prefix also based on the Category?

Oh and btw (now comes something completely offtopic you might be aware off anyway), this box I’m typing in doesn’t seem to fit, there is some white overlap on the right side, making the last letter of each sentence disappear (in Firefox). Just leting you know

Cheers!

phpBB2’s permissions system isn’t extensible enough to bend it to the needs of cross-posting, so I’ll have to use a similar system to the phpBB2 setup for WP-United groups permissions — JavaScripty select boxes most likely, allowing you to mix ‘n’ match groups to forums. Easy to do, but testing it and making it releasable takes time.

Nimiety: Thanks . I hope it picks up enough (X)HTML. It should pick up most strong/em/blockquote/code/image/link tags — i.e. the WordPress staples.

Since the post above I’ve added “tracking” — so WordPress now knows if you’ve already cross-posted a blog entry, and can figure out where you posted it. So this means you can’t inadvertently cross-post something multiple times when editing. It also means that updating the cross-posted content when a WordPress post is edited should be fairly trivial to implement. I may just add it in too.

The topic will be an excerpt of your blog post (or the full post, if you did not specify an excerpt, or did not use the “more” tags), complete with HTML converted to BBCode, a list of categories it was posted to, and a link back to the full post. The topic title can be automatically prefixed with text (say, “[BLOG]”)

Sweet glory be! I’ve been cross posting to phpBB manually, and formatting everything in bbcode by hand while letting a WP plugin parse the bbcode into html. As much fun as that’s been, it’s completely removed my ability to utilize the_excerpt(), since the bbcode doesn’t get parsed.

This is the last feature I was looking for to make my WPU integration complete. Thank you!
