You could look at the BBpress world and see how people move to bbpress from other forums. You’d start here: [Import Forums · bbPress Codex](https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started/importing-data/import-forums/) and then use one of those importers to figure out how to write one for Discourse. It’s probably pretty hard, since I bet bbpress doesn’t know how to read a postgres database, but that’s probably solvable. Though I might do it for less once I looked at what was involved, I likely wouldn’t consider such a job unless the budget was in the $5000 range. It would take me a bunch of time to figure out a bunch of stuff about bbPress that I don’t want to know. > [@MaxDL](#): > > need to have a better integration with Buddypress than what [WP Discourse](https://github.com/discourse/wp-discourse) plugin can offer Solving that problem is what people here could help with. --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/migrate-from-discourse/178941)._
