I am trying to import the forums and topics from our existing phpBB forums. There are about a dozen forums, and about 400 topics and 1600 posts. I have set the values on the Import Forums page to the following:
Select Platform = phpBB
Database Server = mssql2.<hostingdomain>.com
Database Port = 3306
Database Name = <name of the database>
Database Username = <admin user>
Database Password = <password>
Table Prefix = phpbb_However, when I start the conversion, it reports “No forums to convert”, “No forum parents to convert”, and so on.
I do not get any errors when I run the conversion. The existing phpBB forums are in a MSSQL database and not a MySQL database. I suspect that this may be the reason nothing is discovered.
Any help would be appreciated.

bbPress Version 2.5.14
WordPress 4.9.6 running Divi themeTopic: postmeta db size
Hello,
I migrated from phpBB to bbPress recently. My forum has ~1Million posts. My postmeta table is 30GB.
Is there anything I can do to shrink it?
I noticed there are many lines for every post like _bbp_old_xxxx, which i suspect comes from migration.
It’s safe to delete all those records with _old_ in it? Or anything else? 30GB seems quite too much even for that amount of posts, compared to the old phpbb db size…I wanted to know if you can help me.
I get to import everything except the users.
I’m trying to import a phpBB3.2.2 to bbPress.
I’ve tried with bbPress 2.5.14, bbPress 2.6 RC5 and bbPress 2.6 beta2.

Topic: Mobile Plugin Solution
Bbpress users and developers,
After creating my bbpress forum I was disappointed to find there is no easy way to get full functionality (notifications etc) on smartphone, since tapatalk cut ties with wordpress.
I have found a new application called Topic’it, who have established compatibility with Forumotion and PHPbb software. Their app appears in both the android and ios app stores, and is essentially the same proposed thing as tapatalk.
They are searching for people to create plugins to make their app compatible with more forum platforms. They have given me permission to access their API, so I’m going to attempt this as a solo project, but it will take me time as I’m a computer hobbyist and not a developer in any way.
For the love of Bbpress, let someone more adept than me get over there and give it a shot!
Of course I’ll share my work here if I manage to connect.
I had an old WP site that came back to life. It was running phpBB and I successfully imported everything to bbPress. In the new site, we are also using BuddyPress. Old users are reporting that they are now getting email notifications on replies from posts many years old.
Thoughts? Ideas?
Hi all,
have gone through numerous posts on the issues of importing phpbb to bbpress. I have been using the latest RC version of bbpress. I am using latest version of WP and phpbb 3.0.11
I have tried cleaning, repairing, resetting and trying again. Nothing works. It shows everything as 0 items to import, no forum, no topics. Only it imports replies without anything else.
Any help will be appreciated. I really want to move away from phpbb forum 🙁
Topic: paid file sharing like phpbb
Want to know if it’s possible to use bbprss like phpbb where you can set userpermissions to access certain files. We have a site where it is a forum but there is a section where users and subscribe and be able to download files that are on certain posts. It this possible to setup the same as this site – http://www.plasmaspider.com ?
ThanksSince I was helping a friend convert a phpbb2 board to phpbb3 I thought I’d take the time to also import the forums into bbpress (my preference).
I initially tried the import but could not get it to work and after looking on the forums saw that I was not alone.
To get the import to work I had to remap some fields in the phpbb conversion script and comment out some obsolete ones (took about 30 minutes.If anyone needs to get your PHPBB3 users and forums converted in BBPress you can replace the phpBB.php file in wp-content\plugins\bbpress\includes\admin\converters to match the following updated code: https://gist.github.com/pixelnated/a7a9c41154cf64696ddd1c2e4f4327ed
Topic: Any French here ? ;-)
Salutations,
Je viens de découvrir cette extension…
C’est TERRIBLE ! 😉Moi qui comptait installer un phpBB… Problème résolu.
Par contre, j’ai 2/3 questions :
– Mon site WP est plus un site “carte de visite”, sans articles, juste des pages. Personne ne s’inscrit donc. Comment faire dans ce cas pour ouvrir en écriture le forum au public (sans être anonymes) ?
– Le thème du forum est lié au thème WP ou on peut le changer indépendamment ?
– Comment se passe les sauvegardes du forum ? (pérennité.)
– Comment l’intégrer au site WP ? Un lien menu ?Merci de votre aide…
Hello,
I just want to import my phpBB forum (version 3.2.0) to BBpress. I tried with “tools/import” but it doesn’t work. The tools didn’t import a single forum or topic.
How can I do this?
Another question : how can I increase the size of the font in BBpress? I would have the same size as this forum, on wordpress.org. The original size is really too small.
Thanks a lot.
