Copying the phpBB forum twice

  • I copied a phpBB forum to new hosting, set up WordPress, and added this excellent plugin.

    But I needed my phpbb users to create WordPress content before I could go live, so I wasn’t able to switch the live version over from the old phpBB hosting and static site straight away. I have my users in both places, but the forum has continued running on the old hosting while my users explored WordPress and decided what content they wanted to build.

    I’m now wondering if this plugin stores anything in the phpbb tables in the database – can I just copy the phpBB tables from the live site over the top of the phpbb tables in my new wordpress-and-phpbb database, and have my wordpress site with all my phpBB content up to date?

    Obviously whatever I do, I shall take a backup first!
