This looks like a great plugin.
I'm starting a magazine style blog, but also want a community, and this looks like a possible solution. A couple of questions if I may:
1) For those of you who have implemented this in their blog, have you noticed an increase or decrease in user engagement as far as commenting on the blog post vs clicking thru and participating on the related forum post (assuming that the 2-way blog comment/forum post sync is turned off)?
2) If blog comments and forum posts sync both ways, doesn't that present a duplicate content issue?
3) Are there any alternatives to full 2-way sync? For example, is there an option to just show the last n comments or the most liked comments in the thread?
4) Instead of displaying forum posts as comments on the blog article, is it possible to display the number of comments in the related forum post to show activity? For example, is it possible to have a button that says, "Talk about this post (23 comments, 21 voices)" or something like that?
Thanks! And my apologies if any of these questions have been asked before.
