One database – Import

  • Hi all,

    a couple of years ago I was running a PhpBB3 forum, on MySQL database. Years later a mate of mine installed WordPress for me, and used the same MySQL database…

    Now I want to terminate this PhPBB forum, import all the posts into WP and get rid of the forum.

    Question: I tried using a simple import tool (bbPress) but it failed to import. I guess it’s because I need to “split” the database ?

    If I don’t need to split, then how can I import the forum’s post into WP posts, and replies as comments while keeping the date/time tags and users ?

    Cheers, any insight will be helpful.
