 * This site: wp-united.com does the same as what your doing. However this plugin
   does not do theme intergration or cross posting.
 * Will you provide this in a newer version?

 * Theme integration is absolutely different thing than wordpress and phpBB integration.
 * The phpBB it has it’s own template machine in the back end, and that’s why the
   plugin will never integrate themes. The themes to be integrated must be written
   from scratch for both applications, or if there is existing one (i.e.: for wordpress)
   to be re-writed for the phpBB. This way we made the theme for the [http://www.wordpress-gr.org](http://www.wordpress-gr.org)

 * Ok, if we take the theme system out, what about cross posting and use of the 
   phpbb’s smlies and word *** system?

 * For now cross posting is not yet available on WP phpBB Bridge, but you can show
   user info, avatar, forum links and many other on WordPress. Also you can use 
   the responsible Widget that display the latest topics from forums of your choice
   to WordPress.

 * Theme blending is one thing I miss from WP-United, even though it broke a whole
   lot.
 * It would require a phpBB mod to add hooks and insert the wp-header and wp-footer
   files into the phpBB theme. After that, it would require some pretty complex 
   styling scripts to sort out styling issues between your wordpress style.css and
   phpBB theme css files.
 * Does this plug-in have a repository I could push such a feature to? This is a
   helpful enough function that I wouldn’t mind creating it myself. Though it might
   be easier to make a much needed phpBB3 -> bbPress script and just use bbPress
   😛

 * if you can create it you can send us a email so we can include it in the next
   version 😉
