Hi all,

I'm currently looking to archive an old phpBB forum to Wordpress. The best option in my book would have been to simply convert all the threads to regular Wordpress posts with comments and then use a Wiki theme, but it seems like a (well-maintained) script to achieve this doesn't exist.

Wpforo looks fabulous, and it seems like the conversion script to migrate from phpbb is well tested, but as explained above, it's not exactly what I was looking for - still, it may be my best option to move my content to a Wordpress environment.

And I'll certainly give WPForo a try, but chances are it might not do what I want. So I guess my question is if someone has ever tried to convert their WPforo threads into regular Wordpress posts + comments?

Bonus question: Is there a way to migrate to WPForo without the user accounts, while still retaining the user names? My WP is a private multisite install with only a handful of users, cluttering that with thousands of forum users (including many spammers) would be a nightmare, especially since there's no intent to allow them to log in anyway.

Thanks so much!
