First, thanks for making this product. I've tested a few previous versions and have really been looking forward to this release.

Since this release does not have an included instructions file, I wanted to take a minute to give some feedback related to the installation procedure. Here's the process I went through that prompted me to write this topic...

I downloaded IPBWI... the readme text file said "go to ipbwi.com." I went back to the website, but don't see the install info. I think "hmmm, should I join the "official support forum?" I went over to the forum but still didn't see the install instructions. A search result gave me nothing, and to make everything even more confusing I thought I was at IPS's official site because you're using the default skin and logo.

One suggestion: Can you put the install instructions somewhere easy to find? I don't particularly care if you pin the instructions to the board, put them on your website in a clear place, or attach them to the download, but one way or another it would be nice to have this information out in the open.

Even at this point, I'm still not clear on how to install. I'm going to go check one of the old versions and see if I can find the install instructions in there.

I hope this helps!

I wanted to give you an update. It took me 20 minutes since my last post, but I found the HowTo section. Here it is for anyone looking. In case others are confused, I believe "IPBWI4WP" means "IPBWI for Wordpress" and is referencing version 3.1, not indicating there is a version 4 out.

Thanks again for this product :)

thx for your feedback, I'll check how to optimize the help ressources to make it easier to find the right article on the right place :) btw: writing 4 is a synonym for "for", e.g. IPBWI4WP is an acronym for "Invision Power Board Website Integration for WordPress".
