Reply To: Importing Mingle Forums into bbPress?
Using the older version was successful, but the new file gives me this error when importing with or without the users box checked.
`
WordPress database error: [Table ‘str1210409063589.wp_forums’ doesn’t exist]
SELECT convert(forums.id USING “utf8”) AS id,convert(forums.parent_id USING “utf8”) AS parent_id,convert(forums.name USING “utf8”) AS name,convert(forums.description USING “utf8”) AS description,convert(forums.sort USING “utf8”) AS sort FROM wp_forums AS forums LIMIT 0, 100

Before anything appeared on the site I ran a complete repair with all option checked. After this was done and the wp_users table was exported/imported through phpMyAdmin everything is showing up. Before the users were imported it still worked but all except the admin posts were Anonymous.
Working:
- All forums that contained posts are present
- Forum descriptions
- The timestamps
- User account links and info (Forum Role,Topics Started, Replies Created)
- Topic/Voice counts
- bbcode is working for text formatting
- Started By and Freshness authors
- HTML code was imported and is displaying correctly
Not working:
- Parent forums are missing (everything was imported under ‘Forum’)
- There is a blank post by the original author at the start of each topic causing false count
- Custom Smileys “
- Closed Topics are open again.
- Stick Topics are normal topics
