Is this all correct? So, I have to disable both Quick Reply and WordPress commenting, neither of which are bridging?

The alternative option, if I understand it, is to allow WordPress to handle all commenting. If I do things this way, WordPress comments will not count towards a user's forum post count, and the comments can only be managed in WordPress Admin. Again, is this correct?

Thanks.

1 and 2 are correct, though 3 is not - I have Quick Reply active and use it quite often on my site with no issues.

As mine is right now, when a post is published on wordpress, the corresponding forum thread is created, and comments on wordpress are pulled from the forum thread and displayed. the wordpress comments system is completely disabled/gone (at least on my site, obviously it's still 'there' in the backend).

You can safely *not* use the feature that maps vbulletin users with wordpress users - I'm not sure what the point of that is, but I turned it off with no ill effects.

Unfortunately, scheduled posting is still not working. The wordpress post goes up just fine, but the forum thread never gets posted, which means there's no way for readers to comment. I have to manually open the post and click publish, which is a huge pain.
