Plugin Request: Demote wordpress posts to bbpress threads

  1. My blog is getting cluttered with tons of useless posts and I'd really like to clean it out, but since I work with multiple authors I don't want to upset them. I figure a fair compromise is to convert the wordpress posts to threads.

    The plugin would be a sort of 'one step' process where you run a script or hit a button in the admin panel and whichever wordpress post you select becomes a thread with:

    1. the same title
    2. roughly the same text (given bbpress' html capabilities)
    3. comments converted to replies

  2. Any ideas on this from anyone?

  3. How to do it? Write a MySQL query that transfers the info.

    Otherwise you could use the bb Post plugin, edit the relevant posts so they get created as threads, and then delete them in WP.

    I will try the post plugin
