Forget to mention I am using the bbpress 2.6-alpha.
Thanks!
In the original Exmple.php the ‘default’ => ‘Example’, but the phpbb sample the ‘default’ => ‘phpBB’ and the SMF sample the ‘default’ => ‘SMF’ was. This is why I thought I can change to any text.
Anyway I am going to change the value and see what happens.
As I checked the converter again, I found that during the test period I changed the default value to “special” in this part below.
// User password verify class (Stored in usermeta for verifying password)
$this->field_map[] = array(
‘to_type’ => ‘user’,
‘to_fieldname’ => ‘_bbp_class’,
‘default’ => ‘special’
);
Is this could cause the error?
Registering and using a new user after the import is works fine as well as using an old user, registered before the import.
I tried with the bbpress v2.5.8, but I was unable to run the user-role-map repair tool either, I got the white screen there too.
Tried to turn off all the other plugins, increasing the memory, but nothing changed.
How do you think to delete all the users? Only the users or users and their posts too?
(How can I easily remove 30k users?)
Hello again,
For a while seemed everything fine, but I had to notice there is something wrong with the users.
I can find them in the new database, everything in the right field, but I cannot use them.
If I send the forgot password email, choose a new pass and trying to login, the system does nothing, I can see only a big white screen.
I run the forum repair more than once, but two of them (sync-all-reply-positions and user-role-map) interrupts all the time and I have to see the big white screen again.
Do you have any suggestion?
Thanks!
Well, I installed the v2.6, modified the converter.php, imported the data and now everything works perfectly.
Thank you gentlemen for this great help!
Thank you!
Very convincing arguments.
I am going to give a try and I’ll tell you my experiences.

Thank you Stephen!
Thank you for detailed answer. Only one more question: It is very important for me that the forum must be very stable and perfect to use by our visitors. Isn’t it hazardous to use the bbPress 2.6-alpha version instead of the stable bbPress 2.5.8 version?
Hello,
I’m trying to convert my old forum to bbpress (using modified bbpress/includes/admin/converters/Example.php) and it works almost everything except one. In my old forum there are 3 authors category:
1. registered with name,
2. not registered with name and
3. anonymous.
As far as I know the bbpres able to handle these categories and I can convert and import these data, but not together.
I can import the registered users with name, with these lines in converter:
$this->field_map[] = array(
‘from_tablename’ => ‘posts’,
‘from_fieldname’ => ‘uid’,
‘to_type’ => ‘reply’,
‘to_fieldname’ => ‘post_author’,
‘callback_method’ => ‘callback_userid’
);
I can import the NOT registered users with name, with these lines in converter:
$this->field_map[] = array(
‘from_tablename’ => ‘posts’,
‘from_fieldname’ => ‘nickname’,
‘to_type’ => ‘reply’,
‘to_fieldname’ => ‘_bbp_anonymous_name’,
);
But unfortunately, if I use both, only the NOT registered users coming through.
I would be very grateful if someone could help.
