Vanilla Comments
Vanilla Comments is a tool that allows you to integrate your Vanilla Forum with your Wordpress blog. With this you can leverage Vanilla's commenting system on your blog. When a user comments on a blog post, that blog post is copied over to Vanilla and comments are synced from your blog to your forum and vice-versa.
