Auto create threads?

[stephanwhelan]

Hi there - loving the plugin. As we are testing we'd like to see if we can auto-create all post threads in a specific forum. We don't want to have to set it for every specific post. Is that possible?

There are actually a few of them, but the most likely candidate is https://www.themehouse.com/xenforo/2/addons/article-forum-connect

Obviously we're not evaluating based on price, we just want to pick something that has some logically basic features (i.e. automatically create threads for every wp post, put the thread in a forum based on some simple wp category to xf node mapping).

That's what I thought, I had been also looking at using XPress, but they are moving away from supporting XF. No more updates will come from themehouse for XF products.

Hi @trana and @atminside thread auto-posting is one of the new main features in XFtoWP 1.4. See the release notes here.

I'd be curious to hear more about this feature if you're willing to post a writeup in the Feature requests forum.

Do you have an expected date of release for the non-beta 1.4?

Latest by Monday, probably sooner. Adding a couple of minor enhancements to the new beta features but the plugin has proven stable.
