Hello…

(I have searched the forums here for a solution for this, apologies in advance if I missed a relevant post).

I just installed the most current bbPress and imported a phpBB forums (3.0.10). I now have users with “imported_” prepended to their names. I am guessing that these are the names of users with pre-existing WP accounts who had the same phpBB username. (eg johndoe and imported_johndoe).

How can I merge these two accounts into one. (ie imported_johndoe -> johndoe)?

TIA,
fernando
