Forums

I sorta out of steam and still haven't finished the CSS yet, but I'm also kinda stuck on what topics to cover with the forums. Should the "Ghosts of Ohio" stories be put there or in the wiki? I'm thinking the forums might be a better place, as it'll allow readers the best outlet to contribute their stories as well. I can always create a page in the wiki, or standalone, that links to the best stories. Thoughts?

Nearing completion

I am nearing completion on the blog design. As previously mentioned, I started with the style I was using with phpBB2 and converted it to a WordPress theme, with the intention of integrating look and feel, as well as users and sessions, between the two. Then I discovered bbPress would do everything I needed, without having to integrate two different pieces of software. The theme for the forums isn't quite complete, and I was unable to import the few topics that were already there, so the forums aren't linked until I get the theme complete. I also intend to install a wiki plugin, as I feel that some content works better on a blog, some on a forum, and some as part of a wiki. I've also installed BuddyPress, which adds social networking elements to the site. I'll be expanding the social networking aspects of the site as well.

Welcome back!

Welcome back to Wordpress! A lot of work went in to converting DarkEQ from an old phpBB2 style to a Wordpress theme. Now I need to convert it to phpBB3, and I'll be set. Also, I need to fix the links in the header to point to the actual phpBB3 install.
