WordPress Article displayed as XenForo Page.
Hello All
Here is a XenForo add on that can take a standard WordPress article and display it as a page in a XenForo page node.
FEATURES
------------------------
Super Easy to install and use. You can be up and running in under 5 minutes. It is that easy.
A (1) click configuration helper tool web page that will help with the configuration in the admin control panel.
I use a standard page node template, with a couple of small adjustments that will insert the content of the WordPress page.
I have included the template, eipSoftware_wppage, that I am using, so that it doesn't interfere with any other page nodes you may have.
Please review the installation section for details on how to install and use the addon.
if you have any suggestions for improvements, let me know. Thanks.
