All it does is embed an Etherpad (for example https://pad.riseup.net/p/Pdm1d6nMvZ9B) into a forum post using an iframe.

I have written an extension to embed an Etherpad (h ttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Etherpad) (or Etherpad Lite) into a posting.

You need to have an instance of Etherpad or Etherpad Lite running somewhere (you might use one of the existing ones (h ttp://etherpad.org/public-sites/)). Set up the URL of it in the administration area, then you can embed Etherpads into postings using the [etherpad] syntax.

Etherpad is a software to collaboratively edit simple text documents, users see live what other users are typing. Etherpads embedded into postings can be edited by everyone who can view the posting.

The extension is developed on h ttp://gitorious.org/cdauth_punbb/etherpad.

No, at the moment this is just a normal setting, so as an administrator you can enable it for your users by editing their profiles manually (maybe there’s an addon to edit the settings of multiple users at the same time).

If you want to enable the setting by default, just change the default value of the subscribe_to_board setting from 0 to 1 (in line 13 of the manifest.xml file).

For my own needs, I have written a small extension that adds a profile setting to subscribe to the whole board. If the setting is enabled, an e-mail notification is sent to the user on every new post that the user has permission to read, on the whole forum. The e-mail contains a link to the “New posts” menu. Until the user clicks the link or visits the forum in any other way, no further notifications are sent. This way, the number of e-mails is kept low for people who do not read their e-mails too often, but still they don’t miss a posting.
