 * Hello,
 * I’m using the latest version of this plugin, I’ve got wp 3.4.1 and phpbb 3.0.10
 * I’m stuck on an Auth Mode error. I’m unable to change it in the Plugin options
   itself, so I’ve changed it in the ACP of the forum as I found through the help
   others received but I’m still getting an error.
 * The instructions below even state I’ve it set to wpbb but it still shows in error.
 * >  configuration______recommended______current______ok?
   >  Auth Mode__________wpbb__________________________Error
 * > auth_method
   > This form element only appears when the path_var is correctly set.
   >  You have
   > to set it to wpbb
 * Further in the options it talks of patches to posting.php and functions_user.
   php. What patches are these?
 * Thanks!

 * never mind, the auto install of phpbb on my domain suppressed the phpbb_ prefix.
   Corrected the table names and all is good.
