# Doesn’t work

 * When I click Export Forums, the plugin just takes me to the front page of my 
   website instead of exporting the bbpress forums. I’ve tried using wp export all
   pro suite of plugins, it gets messed up on forum heirarchy and ownership due 
   to wordpress creating new user IDs and post IDs. It’s really frustrating not 
   having a BBpress related plugin that can correctly migrate forums from one wordpress
   website to another.
    What’s the deal on why your plugin redirects to the front
   page?

 * Please try by increasing PHP memory limit. This redirection may happen if a large
   amount of data is exporting and PHP memory limit is very low.
 * Our plugin will import the forum by keeping the forum hierarchy ( with new ID
   but it will connect with proper child ).
 * Regarding the user connection with the forum, if the user ID in the CSV is existed
   in importing website it will connect.
 * Hope this helps!

 * thanks but…
    Both sites will have different user IDs but matching names/emails
   due to how wordpress creates new content via these plugins. Same seems to go 
   for post IDs as well concerning forums, topics, and replies. But I’m glad your
   plugin keeps track of the structure, because WP Import All does not, it’s been
   difficult finding a solution that doesn’t break the new multisite this is being
   imported into or just not work.
 * As far as memory limit, this is on an AWS ec2 with a 512MB php memory limit. 
   That is not low. Combined raw data for the BBPress forums is only 17MBs.
 * EC2 is nginx with php-fpm

 * [@levyimage](https://wordpress.org/support/users/levyimage/):
 * The plugin checks the email id in CSV with the user emails in the database and
   connects with that user.
 * Regarding the redirection issue, please check the error log if anything is logged
   there regarding this.

 * Hi!
 * I try to activate plugin on a multisite, but I can’t.
    No any error message, 
   only nothing happened. Latest bbpress and budypress installed and active. WP 
   is the latest version too.
 * Any idea?

 * [@dave82-1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dave82-1/),
 * Ideally, following steps should resolve the issue,
 * – Install Our bbPress import export plugin in the Network level (DONT Activate)
   –
   Activate Our bbPress Import Export plugin at the Individual site level.
 * Let me know if the issue persists.
