Help with migrated phpBB forum

Hi,

First I would like to say well done to the folks at bbPress. It was a breeze migrating the site, and while it’s different then what I’m used to using (phpBB type forums), I’m really diggin the integration it has with our new WP site.

Anyhow, after I migrated the forums everything is working, but in bbPress all my subforums are now individual forums. The title of my phpBB forum was Obutto, but it appears I don’t need this Obutto forum anymore, is this correct?

If it is correct, how do I remove it? So far I just have it listed as a Category. So far I tried sending it to the trash but then I couldn’t view the other forums. I almost went to delete it permanently but was afraid I might lose data, so thought it may be a good idea to get some proper advice.

Thanks for your time!

Chris

Categories are currently only imported as a forum type and each of these can be changed in WP-admin forums panel.

Sub-forums in phpBB and bbPress are all just forums with a parent forum for the forum hierarchy, these can be changed re-ordered etc also in WP-admin forums panel.

Your forum title ‘Obutto’ is just a title name for the site, you can set the title of your WordPress site title in WP-admin.
