Go2wpForo is designed to allow you migrate forums, topics, posts and users from other WordPress forum plugins to wpForo. We're working hard to improve this tool. Currently it supports these migrations:
- bbPress to wpForo
- Simple:Press to wpForo
- Asgaros to wpForo
- AnsPress to wpForo
- DW Q&A to wpForo
- WP Q&A to wpForo
- phpBB to wpForo
- MyBB to wpForo
- SMF to wpForo
This tool installs like any other plugin for WordPress:
- Downloaded Go2wpForo zip file.
- Navigate to Dashboard > Plugins > Add new and upload addon ZIP file and activate.
- Once the plugin is active, navigate to WordPress Dashboard > Go2wpForo admin page and choose the forum you'd like to migrate from. Then click on Start Migration button...

I am am in the step of migration from live forum to local site. I copied my credentials from config.php and it keeps saying “Not connected to the database”.
Is it because my host provider is blocking the connection? or I am doing something wrong.

Please open a new topic. And provide more information about what exactly you migrate.
