I am trying this out for our Schreyer engage.shc.psu.edu site. It is a forum plugin for WordPress by XDWeb. So feel free to click on the “Forums” tab above or go to this link and start a conversation!

Translating my thoughts into words.
Hey Chris,
Well I’m fascinated by the concept of a forum link on the blog but I don’t know how to go about adding it. Is it something that means I have to host my blog on my own server (which I don’t know how to do in any event) or is it something that I add to WordPress or what?
Thanks
Jim
Hey again Chris,
Well I’ve looked at the WP FAQ and they don’t permit plugin uploads anyway. But it does look a cool tool. For those of you capable of using it!
Best as always
Hi Jim. Yes, I think you need to be hosting your own blog. It is not as hard as you might think (assuming you already have a host, I use 1and1 and I am very happy, check the link on the bottom left, $7/month with oodles), but it does take some research and set up. Once it is up, it is easy as pie!
