phpBB WordPress common tasks extension 1.0.2 has been released, it just add users deletion in phpBB when users deleted into WordPress.

If you do not want to use this feature, and uninstall/reinstall the extension, you can leave in place 1.0.1 and follow with it

The option do not need to be activated into the extension because the secure mechanism where it is wrapped, will only work if the WP_W3ALL plugin is installed into related and linked WP and the related option active into the Wp plugin admin page (the option self explain what it do)
It have no effect nor impact if not used/called.
It have no effect even if used/called improperly.
It require WP 2.5.5 that will be released presumably within today

Note that before to activate this option, it is required to install the phpBB WordPress extension in phpBB.
If the phpBB WordPress extension is not installed in phpBB, this option will not affect.

It has been edited. It do not require to activate nothing about this into phpBB and:
By default users deleted in WP are deactivated in phpBB, and it will continue to be the default behavior if option not active (and even if active: so that if the cURL will fail, and user not deleted in phpBB, the user will be by the way deactivated in phpBB).

Like the plugin bruteforce countermeasure, it was not well explained. It was wrong the hint that say, that a warning will display when more than 4000 records stored.
It is not true, the easy (and secure) code routine, cleanup values, when they reach 4000 records, decreasing automatically the array of values.

Hello,
with latest plugin version, I have now when I try to access some (but not all) wordpress pages a blank page with "Error: the provided email is associated with another account into our forum" whereas it is not the case !
and it is the same for all users

[axew3]

did so you disabled the option:

Disable the check of the email existance in phpBB before it is updated in WordPress (front end plugins profile pages)

it will be modified to be

Disable check of the existence of the email in phpBB before it is updated in WordPress (front end plugins profile pages)

??

p.s the hint on plugin admin 2.5.5 has been rewritten like this:

yes, it was all set...
but the weird thing is that issue has been solved by updating OTHERS plugins...

I'm trying to optimize at maximum page load on Wordpress,
it appears the iframe js is viewed as hardcoded whereas it seems to have others ways, could you please consider using standard hooks like described below:
the recommended wp_enqueue_scripts() action hook (despite the name, it is used for enqueuing both scripts and styles) which is the proper one to use when enqueuing scripts and styles that are meant to appear on the front end. The standard functions that are used inside the hook to do an enqueuing are: wp_enqueue_style(), wp_add_inline_style(), wp_enqueue_script() & wp_add_inline_script().
