I feel like a noob..I've installed the NillaBlog plugin..but..where's the blog located at? I can't really figure out how the thing works..Do I make a Blog category on my forums, and post from there or..?

    Yes. You create a category that you will use as a blog. Set the permissions accordingly, so that only you may post to it, but others may comment.

    Then configure the nillablog plugin to select the category you wish to turn into a blog.

    That's a topic for another plugin :)
    The nillablog styles may or may not work well embedded. I haven't tried because I don't use it.

    Awesome! easy enough! I kind of figured that's how I was supposed to go about things..

    One last question? Is there a way to embed the forum into a webpage on my site? just like the EmbedVanilla plugin? or another way?

    Gotcha! I set it up with some iframes for now... I've been trying to stay away from them, but I'm not skilled enough not to sometimes I guess! at any rate, seems to be working ok!

    Thanks for the help with the blog! I already love it
