Heh, no I didn’t see that.

Thanks again for all of your help, it is impressive how quickly this was resolved 🙂

I figured it out for anyone else who may need the answer. I added a new callback method to converter.php that checks for the old vanilla ID of the reply_to and returns the new post ID.

Tested it, it works 🙂

I am looking into how the “callback_method” value in the field_map array works. I see that when a reply is created, a post meta value is saved to store the old and new post IDs together. I wonder if I can use a callback_method to get the new post id for the replyto based on the _bbp_post_id meta value?

Is there any documentation I can look for to learn how to use the callback_method?

Thanks!

It looks like the ID of the parent is the old vanilla ID and not the new bbpress post ID, is there a way for me to make sure it saves the new ID as the parent?

thanks!

Stephen,

The import did save the _bbp_reply_to in the postmeta, but it does not seem to be affecting the nesting of the replies.

Since the data is there, maybe there is some way I can override the listing of replies to make them show in the nested list?

Thanks!

Stephen,

Thanks a bunch, I will try this out first thing tomorrow and let you know how it goes.
