    I just installed 2.0 and have had some issues:

    1. There are 0kb files with identical names to the folders in each subfolder – this made it impossible to properly extract and I had to do a lot of manual extraction.

    2. The images are in the wrong directory when extracted (skins > wp-2.0 instead of skins > default > images). I had to move images around so they appear.

    3. The “WP-Forum” link under “Manage” in WP Admin is missing so I have no way to administer the forum now.

    When I installed I deactivated 1.8 and activated 2.0.

    Thanks in advance for any help …

    Very nice work Fredrik!
    I have some issues though, see WP-Forum/Bugs about;

    – Lastest activities, template tag seams not wokring anymore :-(
    – Userphoto instead of gravatar does not seams to work anymore :-(
    – some strange numer appears beside the avatar icon, to the left
    – …. read more about in in your WP-Forum/Bugs section

    Future suggestion:
    When adding users to a usergroup it would be very nice to have a “pick list” from the WP-user “database” instead of writing them manually.

    Thanks though for a very nice plugin!

    Oh, I was hoping to see unregistered users able to choose a name when posting. Are you planning to implement this in a future revision soon?

    Or, can you give me some guidelines to implement it myself? I’m pretty skillful at PHP and not too bad with WP. Of course I’d give the code if I get it for you to include in the plugin. Feel free to contact me by email if you’re interested.

    Anyway, great job!

    Working fine now but I don’t think it looks quite right … probably because I had to do a lot of manual extraction from the zip file. Has the zip file been fixed?

    Take a look at my site to see what I mean …

    Hello,

    There seems to be some kind of errors when you set a moderator for any forum. The forum title and description got messed up showing only the name of the moderator.

    Also, wp-forum does not get along with Light Menus plugin, not SEO Master… :(

    Oh! btw, bring back the tiger skin please! :)

    And last but not least… THANKS A LOT… it’s the only forum plugin that really works… :)

    All best,
    Will

    Hello,

    The error with the moderator messing all things up seems to be related to the way WP parses some tags… I’ve had errors like this using the PHP-Ex plugin. Some tags like get messed up.

    Hope it helps.
