Hi – I am migrating over to Vanilla (don’t ask, long story). I want to export a bunch of posts – just the post title, content, and user. Anything will do, even a Text file. Is there an easy way to do this?

Thanks!

At least I can’t imagine how. I have a similar situation – trying to get rid of buddy press but terrified that pulling it out is going to screw the rest of the site… Is there a more foolproof way […]

I have done an import from bbpress and everything got attributed to the wrong users. Doing this via phpMyAdmin will be a crazy nightmare.

Is there a plugin I can use to change the name on posts? What about editing the “posted on” date? Thanks!

I deactivated BuddyPress as well as the Buddy Press Template Pack. However, my index.php “main index template” is still polluted somehow by Buddy Press. If I look at it in the Theme Editor, it contains all kinds of references to BuddyPress. How did this template get changed? I did not do it, somehow […]

I do have backups of my templates, can I just overwrite them after getting rid of buddypress? More importantly, what happened to my index.php file? It’s now just a bunch of incomprehensible php… even though, if I FTP into the main directory, I still […]

I see that buddypress creates some kind of dropdown menu set of options across the top of all pages. What if I dont’ want that at all? I’d rather only have options like that in a sidebar on the bbpress part of my site. I […]

I have installed bbpress and it’s working pretty well. It’s not exactly feature-rich, but seems decent. What does buddypress really do that bbpress doesn’t do already? The things I’d really like are: 1) Facebook connect – is this possible? 2) Better profiles – with […]

So, I have forums then, and they work just fine. But where is the buddypress magic? How does it change bbpress? My understanding is that buddypress will allow for much more interesting interaction between registered users that bbpress can’t do on it’s own. How do I get these features activated and working?
