 * Thanks for everything, SchattenMann.
    I will test the new 0.3.2 tomorrow morning
   and will leave feedback. With every new release, the plugin is getting closer
   to being perfect.
 * See you tomorrow, or whenever your wife doesn’t need you. 😉 jk
 * Good night!

 * No, it is working now. There was a problem in my WP configuration.
    The 3 tabs:
   Options, Export Posts and Export Comments are displaying properly.
 * I will now export the posts and their comments to see if they work.
 * Note: To all attempting to export thousands of posts and comments, you should
   use Google Chrome, as it is easier and faster to work with than Firefox3, which
   tends to lock up often.

 * But i do not understand code at all! 🙁
    If i can easily replace all the body
   text from all the 4000 posts with dummy text, then i will do it as it will overwrite
   all the confidential information. I will do this using a backup, of course. 🙂
   What exact query do i run in phpmyadmin to achieve this?
 * Also, you will like this post, that i have made on the official SMF forum:

 * [@supertamagochi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/supertamagochi/)
 * There are 2 important things for you to consider:
 * 1. All the comments will be mapped to you in the forum, if you are the only one
   who posted all the comments from your WP blog. If someone else posted a comment
   to your post, then you will not be associated with the comment.
    I think this
   can be fixed, if you set the comment user ID to your own forum ID.
 * 2. In your WPSMF settings, if you want the forum admin account to have ALL posts
   and ALL comments associated with it, then you must put SMF ID = 1 for all the
   WP Users.

 * [@lazy79](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lazy79/) The reverse should also
   be possible, that is, from SMF to WP.
 * But right now the MOST important thing is to perfect this WPSMF plugin to export
   from WP to SMF. Once this is done, then maybe SchattenMann will consider adding
   even more functionality.

 * Hi SchattenMann
 * I just tried the latest plugin version 0.3 and i get the multiple installed copies
   of your plugin and no plugin menu after activation??
 * Sorry, but for my wp_post table, this is the problem… I have confidential information
   in most of the WP posts… Maybe someone else can help you? Anyway, i will try 
   to ask the other contributors on my blog, if they agree, but i’m not sure. :S
   
   Anyway, i will see if i create many posts for you to test. 🙂

 * I have been able to synchronize the unlinked from 0.2.1 by using 0.2.0 to synchronize
   the blog posts to the forum. I think something was broken in 0.2.1 and you can
   test this easily with just a few blog posts. Install 0.2.1 and synchronize these
   posts to the forum, then unlink them and delete the forum posts. Then try to 
   synchronize them again (in 0.2.1, the synchronize option is called export) and
   you will see that nothing happens! I then used 0.2.0 to synchronize/export and
   it works, but i still have to manually convert 999 posts at a time.

 * I have tried to export the unlinked posts and it doesn’t work. So, there is no
   way to synchronize unlinked posts with the forum. I am going to try 0.2.0 to 
   see if i can use that to export the posts. This is a serious bug in 0.2.1

 * I just tested what you said by just putting /forum and it did not find the forum.
   I think you missed what i told you from my first post.
    My forum path is different
   from the default one that you put to start as from /public_html My forum path
   is a folder in parallel to public_html, meaning in the same directory as the 
   folder public_html Also, i just tested the new unlink feature and it only unlinks
   996 posts and then it reloads the page. Now, i have no way to unlink the rest.
   You should also include another option “select all synchronized posts” so that
   i can unlink 996 posts at a time, manually.
 * About sql post table, i really want to help you to debug this plugin properly,
   but my blog posts table contains sensitive information… so i hope you don’t feel
   bad that i cannot share it with anyone. 🙁
    It’s not that i don’t trust you, 
   but i’m not sure that my other blog contributors would agree to give away a backup
   of the blog.
 * Isn’t there any other way to do that? Maybe a post generator for WP? It can post
   random text quickly and fill up the WP post table. That should be quite easy 
   to make, if someone hasn’t done it already? 🙂

 * Thanks a lot! 🙂
 * You have done an amazing number of improvements in the plugin, in such a short
   time!
 * Cheers!
 * P.S. Maybe you could add the updated plugin to the main page of the plugin, as
   it still shows 0.1
    [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wpsmf/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wpsmf/)
   I am sure others are also waiting for your latest plugin updates, so they will
   be able to see that the much improved 0.2 has been released.
 * Take some rest. You deserve it my friend.
    Whenever you can release 0.3, it will
   be most welcome by the whole WP community.

 * Thanks for fixing the SMF post count. 🙂
 * Now, it would be perfect if you could add an option in the WP synchronize menu,
   where all posts could be reset as unsynchronized. Then, i could transfer all 
   the WP posts all over again to any number of forums.

 * I checked the number of posts on the SMF forum for each member that has been 
   mapped, and their post count is now showing correctly. This part was broken in
   0.1
