Importing phpBB into bbPress

   Hello.

   I searched the forum for an answer, but I couldn't find any up-to-date answer to my question. I'm doing a website for a mate who has a phpBB-forum which I'd like to integrate with a WordPress theme - and my first choice would be to import everything into bbPress. Is this possible without losing any information?

   Thanks in advance,
   Kralle

   Hi Kralletown,

   You will lose some data in the transfer (attatchemnts as I recall was a biggie for some folks), but in theory none of the important data.

   It also depends on how much you want to integrate with WordPress whether this is a good idea or not.

   I'd loook at:

   Good luck
