BBPress hasn’t worked for my site and so I’ve removed it and have reverted to WordPress native Posts and Comments, which is already working better for engagement.
I’m going to change all my my BBPress Topics to WordPress Posts which is easy enough but does anyone have a script or know to to change the BBPress Replies to WordPress Comments?
As BBPress Replies are a post type in wp\_posts but WordPress Comments have their own table it’s not a simple post type rename like theBBPress Topics to WordPress Posts are. I need to copy the replies from wp\_posts to wp\_comments and related meta info from wp\_posts\_meta to wp\_comments\_meta while keeping the relationship to the parent Topic/Post intact for each reply, and the related reply meta to the new comment.
Make Sense?
On top of that I’m not sure how image attachments embedded in a BBPress Reply will fare, I think they will break unless serious some extra fancy code is involved, which is WAY above my pay grade.
