Hello,

I am working with a couple of very broken bbPress forums. Rather than trying to fix them my client is willing to start over again IF I can find a way to export the Topics and Replies into a human readable PDF document.

Apparently they have managed to do this in the past but I have NO way of knowing how. Cannot find a solution. I hope someone can help me.

Thank you.

this is a bit clunky, but should work, depending on what you want the final to look like

First forums are custom post types topic, reply or forum.

so use an exporter to get them into excel

eg

https://wordpress.org/plugins/export-2-excel/

https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-csv-exporter/

Then use say MS word and mailmerge to pull in the data into a format

Then save the resultant word doc as a PDF

Thank you so much. I’ll give it a try.

Hi Priscilla,
I need to export the forum in pdf too. Did you finally find a solution?
Please, let me know.
Bye bye

Sorry, no.

This might do it since it says it works with custom post types.
