I’m trying to do a WordPress XML import on a site with BBPress installed. When I get to the page that asks if a user’s posts should be assigned to an existing user or not, the list is over 100 users long, but never finishes. I know it’s not finished because I see that it’s listing BBPress users, and there are 3700+ of them in the WP-Admin. Consequently, the Submit button never gets created for the import form, so I can’t finish the import.

Please help!

All this is handled by the WP plugin https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-importer/

Typically a WordPress site would not have ~3,700 authors…

I would suggest posting on https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wordpress-importer and see what feedback you get and we can go from there.
