I have this running on vb 3.8.3 and wp 2.8. In case anyone's interested, I had no problems getting this to work with two separate host names as long as those host names are on the same server.
For example: I have blog.domain.com and forums.domain.com The path to the blog is /var/www/html/blog and the path to the forums is /var/www/html/forums -so I just created a symlink to /var/www/html/forums called, "forums" in my blog directory and now blog.domain.com/forums/ takes me to the same place as forums.domain.com.
I also had the blank pages problem on my install, but noticed this only happens when the mod is activated, but turned off. When I turn it on, everything works as expected -but when I turn it off, the dashboard gives me a lot of blank pages. I'm not too concerned about this, but thought I would mention it because it actually took me a couple of hours to figure that one out... maybe I can save someone some headaches.
Now if someone could tell me how to get the avatars to show up in the wp comments I would be happy. I know there is info on this in the readme and others have posted solutions to this issue in the threads that have followed this mod, but all of the docs I have seen seem to be out of date -or at least, not specific to vb 3.83 and wp 2.8
The avatars on my forums are stored on the filesystem -so technically, all I need to do is find a way to grab the vb user ID for each comment and then build the image path from that.
Thanks.
