This is recommended to bloggers who are too lazy to upgrade their WP blogs.

I am using the Automatic Upgrade Plugin and it has worked great until I was upgrading from 2.5 to 2.51, then it totally messed up my blog. To be fair, I think I am to blame because I didn’t upgrade the plugin to the latest version before attempting the WP upgrade. I am sure it works flawlessly again, but I am still at 2.5

Forums take time, longer then blogs to take off. Dont bother with bbPress just stick with your SMF forum I can help you in that dept if you’d like-and like Trisha said use the FAQ page

That’s exactly what I do. I actually have a scheduled automatic database backup daily, which gets emailed to me.

My tip is to set up a separate Gmail account for backups only. It keeps the backup files out of the way, but within easy reach should you ever need the to use it. (Just don’t forget your address and password for the Gmail account!)

The automatic upgrade plugin makes updating so painless. It’s great.

I agree with Dan – SMF is highly recommended for forums, like WP is for blogs.

Do you have a FAQ page where you can put the answers to those boring questions you keep getting asked over and over?

be patient with the forum. SMF is one of the best out there. It takes significant time to develop a forum community but once you have you’ll be glad you stuck with SMF.

This article was the first I heard you had a forum. Give us some reasons in your post to head in there and see whats going on.
