    Asking to myself right now … is this a joke?! 🙂
    [EDITED]
    CHECK LAST ANSWER

    Honestly, i do not know too much bbpress, but should be (really) a joke in case, to adapt the WP_w3all phpBB to WordPress users transfer also for this scope.

    The answer is no, but you can transfer from phpBB to WP, because you have the phpBB to WP users transfer available.
    So asking to myself the follow:
    if i want to start with bbpress, on my WordPress, there is not any importer between bbpress and WP? Should be.

    If yes, then you just need:

    Setup Path and Url into WP_w3all config, activating the plugin, check that same installing user need to exist in phpBB, with same username and email before to activate the plugin doing this step: if logged out after activation, re-login using phpBB pass.

    Activate the WP_w3all transfer option on WP_w3all config page, so you’ll have to choose:
    WP-admin menu -> Settings -> phpBB w3all transfer
    Transfer all phpBB users into WordPress, then may disable or uninstall the plugin.
    Note: at this time, the installing user will have (may) to change/reset his password, because the WP_w3all plugin will not check like phpBB anymore the hashed stored pass.
    Note also that all transferred users are transferred with their phpBB hashed pass: so another time, these users may have to reset their pass to correctly login WP side (or you may add some code to recognize the phpBB hash, like WP_w3all do.

    Really there is not an option in WordPress bbpress, to transfer users between, when a new bbpress is installed into WordPress?
