Hi @sambrads71,

You can make the migration with Go2wpForo Tool, which has bbPress to wpForo Migration availability.
https://wpforo.com/community/migrate-to-wpforo-from-other-forum-plugins/migrate-to-wpforo-go2wpforo-tool/

In case the migration result of this tool doesn’t satisfy you, you can contact to professional forum migration services for custom migration. We only recommend gConverter or ProfProjects services. They have already done hundreds of forums to wpForo migration projects with the best result.

My question is did it every work for you? Does the migration tool work for the buddyboss forums?

Hi @forumlover,

You can try to test it by selecting bbPress option. But do it only on a testing website.
