Well after more than a week of total frustration I’m just about to give up. I’ve tried endlessly to find a solution without luck. I’ve hired a developer who has done a week’s worth of work at significant expense without any luck.
We’ve imported some of the old forum but not all of it. http://www.unitedrant.co.uk/forums/ – as you can see while some replies are as fresh as 3 months old none of the topics imported are newer than 9 months old. Nobody can work out why the importer won’t bring all of it over.
I’ve reset the BBPress 2.3 forum twice and each time not only the metadata associated with the forum posts is deleted but that associated with blog posts too (resulting in mass deletion of categories and tags).
I’ve also tried 3 times to post on this forum without any help at all. After using BBpress for fours years I feel very let down by the community.
Any ideas at all?
Ok simple question. Can anybody tell my what MySQl table the “imported” data is held in when I migrate from 1.2 to 2.3 using the BBpress importer tool?
Thanks
Ed
Hi. No ideas?
In order to progress the migration I really need to clean out the failed import. But I cannot do that without deleting the meta data. If I delete the meta data I lose thousands of data points from my blog.
I’d *really* appreciate some help from the developers here. Or perhaps nobody cares?
I’d like to do this to. Which plugin?
There was a bbpress / wordpress sync plugin for bbperss 1.x
My wordpress installation is in the top folder and then the forum installation is in a sub-directory (forum).
So wordpress is at http://www.unitedrant.co.uk and the forum is at http://www.unitedrant.co.uk/forum
Should the path be?
require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . ‘../wp-load.php’); – says no exists
or
require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/../wp-load.php’); – get a blank screen
Same issue here. I comment out the require once wp-load and everything is ok… if I don’t I get a blank screen.
Using WP 2.9, BBP 1.0
