 * Hey justzamir,
 * Thanks, not yet I’m afraid but it is something I’ve been working on for the premium
   version. Would be possible but since the plugin has been completely rewritten
   it would be a lot easier for you to wait until you can purchase it or until that
   version is available for free customers.
 * Will hopefully provide an update about the two versions soon.
 * Feel free to post here or email me any other questions, problems, suggestions,
   etc. (me at codebycarter.com). Thank you.

 * Yes in wp-bulletin-board/php/admin/wpbb-admin-categories.php at the top of the
   file find:
 * `global $wpdb;`
 * Add after:
    `$wpdb->show_errors();`
 * Then try to create a category again and paste the error message here 🙂

   access to phpMyAdmin or something similar could you run this SQL query?

 * Hey P.Effrem,
 * Are you receiving a blank page or does it say something like “Error creating 
   category” when you try to create a category? Categories, Forums and Sub forums
   use the same database table so not sure why categories won’t work, could you 
   email me an admin login? (me at codebycarter.com)

 * Hey,
 * I did actually finish adding a recaptcha system and almost finished view logging
   with forums/sub forums/topics but have also been working on rewriting the plugin
   for a premium version. Will try and finish it and then release that version as
   the last free version for a while. Thanks for your patience, will provide an 
   update soon.
 * Thanks.

 * Ok, no problem. A few people have requested this as well lately, I definitely
   would like to add it but not sure when / how it’s going to be implemented yet.
   Have been working on rewriting the plugin in my spare time so that feature requests
   such as these can be easily added as extensions either by me or someone else 
   since it’s difficult to do that at the moment. Will hopefully provide an update
   about this soon but please do provide more information if you can such as if 
   you want posts made after a post you want to receive notifications from to remove
   previous notifications? Things like that.
 * Thanks again.

 * Hey,
 * Sounds like the necessary database table doesn’t exist. Could you try reactivating
   the plugin? Are you using any other plugins other than Akismet and Hello Dolly?
   Do you know what your database prefix is and if so could you paste it here? By
   default it’s `wp_` but sometimes it’s different and can cause problems.
 * Thanks.

 * No no such feature exists at the moment I’m afraid. I have been working on rewriting
   the plugin though and have added a feature called ‘Extensions’ which will allow
   you to activate/deactivate add-ons easily without affecting the plugin or having
   to edit any plugin code, could make this an extension when it is released. Stay
   tuned!

 * Hey, You’d have to edit **yourTheme/wpbb-template.php**. I’ve downloaded the 
   theme you’re using if you could let me know which template you’d like to use 
   with the forum. I could then send the file over 🙂

 * Hey,
 * 1/ After taking a look at the Facebook code again for this version I realize 
   that it won’t display the registration form if you’re using default permalinks.
   But just so you can see it working please try this:
 * – Make sure you allow new user registrations (admin dashboard -> Settings -> 
   General -> Membership -> Tick ‘Anyone can register’)
    – Use a permalink setting
   other than the default setting (admin dashboard -> Settings -> Permalinks -> 
   Post name f.e.) – Disable guest permissions (WPBB Settings -> Enable Guest Permissions-
   > Tick ‘No’) – Facebook settings should look like this (admin dashboard -> Settings-
   > WPBB Settings -> Facebook Settings):
 *     ```
       Enable Facebook Support        Yes
   
       My App ID / API Key            App ID from Facebook 	
   
       App Secret Key 	               App Secret from Facebook
   
       Site URL (Redirect URL)        e.g. http://localhost/www/myWPSite 
   
       CSRF Protection 	       example: zsdgftz43568trtgst4 (don't use this one)
   
       Default Role                   If blank uses default role (e.g. 'subscriber' or enter your own role that you want new facebook users to be in. Role must exist! Edit a user from your admin dashboard, you'll see a list of roles you can use in the dropdown menu)
       ```
   
 * **Setting up Facebook App**
 * – [https://developers.facebook.com/apps](https://developers.facebook.com/apps)(
   register or login)
    – “Create New App” – Enter App Name, can be anything you 
   want, don’t worry about app namespace or web hosting. Click continue. – Facebook
   should’ve created the app for you and you’ll see at the top the name of your 
   app and the default avatar, next to that there is your App ID and App Secret 
   Key. Enter those into your WPBB facebook settings. – You may want to enter a 
   contact email and change any other settings to your liking but leave sandbox 
   mode disabled and don’t use the “Hosting URL” – Click “Website with Facebook 
   Login” under “Select how your app integrates with Facebook” then enter the URL
   to your wpbb forum e.g. [http://mysite.com/wordpress/forum](http://mysite.com/wordpress/forum)–
   Save changes
 * Make sure **Website with Facebook Login** at your Facebook App Settings is the
   same as **Site URL (Redirect URL)** in your WPBB Settings 🙂
 * 2/ You’re absolutely right. With the “Enable Guest Permissions” setting disabled
   however you’ll see that logged out users will be forced to either login or register
   with WordPress or Facebook. Otherwise, currently, it only displays an error message
   that the user doesn’t have permission to a particular area of the forum. We could
   easily add a Login or Register link to the top of the forum if you wanted as 
   well however. This has all been improved in the plugin rewrite I’ve been working
   but that won’t be available for a while I’m afraid. I’ll still be able to fix
   anything in the current version though like the problem with the default permalinks.
   Testing and updating the plugin now.
 * Please let me know how you get on, if you have any more questions, etc.
 * Thanks.

 * Try from your admin dashboard -> WPBB -> Role Permissions -> ‘No’ for any roles
   that should only be able to edit/lock/delete/sticky their own topics and posts.
   I think that’s what you’re after 🙂

 * What do you mean exactly? Allow users to choose if they want to be notified when
   someone has responded to their topic/post like this support forum or something
   different?
