Default How to get blog posts to create forum threads?

Sorry this is a little off topic, not trying to disrupt anything I swear. I've been searching for a mod or how Steve setup his blog/forum to automatically create a forum post when he publishes a new blog. It's driving me crazy! I've posted on the phpbb and wordpress forums and no one has been able to help me. I've been Googling for a long time and also could not come across anything. Idk if it a custom modification Steve made, but I'd appreciate it if anyone is able to help me out!

It's also nifty how the comments have been replaced with a link to the forum... Another blog that does that can be seen here... so people obviously know how to do it!

Your forum runs on the phpbb software while Steve uses vBulletin.
I think that this is a feature that vBulletin supports natively but it might also have been a plugin. I'm pretty sure that it isn't a custom modification.

You can put any RSS feed into the thing and afterwards it creates new threads for each feed item.

phpBB • View topic - [2.0.6] FIND - Forum Integrated News Delivery - Input could be the right plugin for phpBB.
