First of all, this looks like a great forum plugin in development. I’ve been looking for a possible alternative for another wp forum plugin (which is not really developing fast) for a while.
Since you seem to be Ok with the feature proposals flowing in for Simple Forum, I’d like to throw two of them myself.
1) Localisation support would be great, like someone mentioned earlier. I can provide Finnish translation.
2) A list of recent posts in the WP sidebar would be cool. I have a hacked example with current forum plugin currently in use. You can take a look at http://jousimetsastys.fi/wp/ under the title “SJML Forum” in the sidebar. Essentially, there is only message title and modification date (format I use is “d.m.”, but it probably could/should be configurable…).
I’m not sure if these features are supported:
- is user able to edit his own message?
- can admin move a message under a different forum?
BTW: I installed the Simple Forum ver 1.3 (to WP 2.0.7), configured some test forums, posted and article as admin and a reply as another user. Got an error message like:
WordPress database error: [You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ' 69, '', '', 0)' at line 1]
INSERT INTO wp_sfposts (post_content, post_date, topic_id, forum_id, user_id, guest_name, guest_email, post_status) VALUES (’Foo and bar. -Another user’, ‘2007-01-23 20:59:35′, 1, , 69, ”, ”, 0);

This seems to happen only if I reply to a message opened from Most Recent Posts pane. If I open same message from Forums & reply to it, all works ok. Known bug?
br, Ari
