Hi @axewww after entering the correct phpBB database connection values, can not able to access the backend, its redirecting me to the frontend itseld. Please provide the solution

As per your last answer what I understood is that user credentials will be overwritten based on email address means password, etc will be updated. But as per your first answer email address and password will be overwritten based on username to get clarified on this let’s understand it by a example –

Lets say two persons with same username (Trupti1) have accounts on WP and phpBB with different email addresses such as [email protected] and [email protected]. Now I have two questions on this –

1. As per your first answer, phpBB user will be overwritten by WP user as they share same username however they both are actually different users sharing same username on two different platforms (WP & phpBB) ?

2. As per last answer, if two users share same email address on WP and phpBB but different usernames such as TruptiWP and TruptiphpBB, after migration user credentials will be overwritten such as password etc. But does it also update usernames from WP->phpBB ?

1. Lets assume as a user I have account on both platforms (WP and phpBB) with same email address but different usernames (WP username- trupti & phpBB username – trupti1). In this case, new user will be created on phpBB because they have different usernames as per your answer however based on email addresss only we consider that these both accounts belong to one person. Please share more details on this to better understand
2. If phpBB user have 20 posts and after migration his/her credential info will be updated/overwritten. Will he/she still mapped to those 20 posts and can access the same or these 20 posts will be lost for him/her?

Hello @axewww,

Thank you for your response
I have query regarding phpBB posts, does the plugin assign the previous /old posts to the new users or not?
