Hello all,
This seems like it should be easy but I cant find ANYTHING ANYWHERE on how to just migrate bbpress forum posts from one bbPress forum Version 2.5.3 to another bbPress forum which is also Version 2.5.3. Both wordpress sites are running WordPress 3.8.1.
I just want to transfer the forums/forum posts/replies from a forum on website aaa.com to website bbb.com which are both on the same server.
It seems like this should be very easy, there are a million tutorials on how to import/export from OTHER forum services like phpbb, etc. but nothing about bbpress to bbpress hahahahaha
Anyways, any help is GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks!
Topic: phpBB3 Import Finds Nothing
I am trying to migrate from our current phpBB3 forums to a bbPress and BuddyPress instance. I have the plugins installed and configured. My issue is when I try to run the importer under Tools > Forums > Import
I am receiving the following:
Repair any missing information:

No replies to convert
No tags to convert
No super stickies to stick
No stickies to stick
No topics to convert
No forum parents to convert
No forums to convert
No passwords to clear
No users to convert
Starting ConversionThe problem is that there is 18 forums, 14,000+ posts and 1,900+ users.
Has anyone experienced this? If so and your succeeded in getting phpBB3 to import could you share any tricks you had to perform?
Thanks really looking forward to leaving phpBB3 behind if possible!
Wordpress Version 3.8.1
bbPress version – Version 2.5.3It seems that I got the bbpress import from phpbb to work with all the topics and replies. The problem is that the users are imported wrong so the topics are credited to the wrong user. I went through other forums which said it was a WP United issue but I do not have this installed.
Please help. I see some suggestions of writing a MySQL query which I see are back from 2012 so they are not working for me. Any assistance would be appreciated.
hello everybody,
I’m trying to import my phpbb linked to wordpress with wp-united to bbpress.first thing, is that I got some troubles to access to the bbpress menu from the wp-admin panel. (not visible and access denied) to solve this first issue, I had to install “user role editor” wordpress plugin and click on reset, right after. bbpress menu was well present.
After first import I noticed that some topics where started by Anonymous and after that all my topics where written by another user;… I finally understood the fun part.
In phpbb you have from id 3 to 51 robot crawler user…due to that, it’s not syncing well with wp_user…
I will try a manual fix tonight but if anybody already did the manip I’m ready for any extra info. (about attachement, mp,…etc,…)cheers,

One feature that I struggle a bit in why bbPress broke from the norm is Freshness. It is customary to have the last column for “Last post” which includes the date-time of last post (topic/reply) and the author of last post.
bbPress has decided to use “Freshness” instead of “Last post” as title. Instead of date-time, it displays time-since.
Perhaps time to move to the more convention approach here. Probably good for performance too – won’t need to calculate freshness.
Hey guys. So I’m used to the regular forum format like phpBB and IP Board where it looks like this: http://imgur.com/XlyR6cc
So, where it says Welcome to IPS, that’s the category name.
Under that, you have News and Information, and Pre-Sales, those are your FORUMS.
Then you have a space underneath the categories as can be seen in the picture.
This makes sense because your CATEGORIES are SEPARATED from each other, and the FORUMS, are listed underneath.
The way bbPress it, you can click a category. This makes ZERO sense, there is NO reason to click on the category.
Also, as can also be seen in the picture, the amount of topics, and replies are to the right side, with the recent reply, time, latest thread, and time to the right.
This can be done by anyone with some moderate CSS knowledge and WordPress know how, unfortunately I possess little of both.
So I’m here for your help. Please share your wisdom with me and help me get this layout. This is a layout SO many people have asked for, yet I have found no tutorials on getting anything like this and it just astounds me considering how popular bbPress is, I don’t know why bbPress has a god awful layout.
Note: Please do not make any “well this is how bbPress is supposed to look like so you should deal with it” comments. I’m not here to hear that.
Thank you in advance to anyone who helps me achieve this. I really appreciate it.
