    Would it be possible to use this plugin in conjunction with a BBPress Forums/Topics/Replies export plugin to convert a BBpress installation to core WordPress Categories, Posts, and Comments?

    For my site having BBPress is overkill and I’d like to revert to Core WordPress discussion functions.

    bbPress migrate to WordPress
    forums > category
    topics > post
    replies > comments

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Actually Forums > Category and Topics > Post are pretty easy as they are all Post Types, it’s migrating the Replies to Comments that is the hard bit as they are stored as a different data structure in different tables.

    Hi @adventureridingnz,

    You can import any data as a WordPress comment using the plugin by adding the data to the CSV file. You can export a sample review to the CSV and use the exported CSV as a template to add other comments and import them.

    Thanks, I’ll give it a try.
