Greetings.. 🙂
Is there any way to copy a forums entire contents to another website with SP currently installed?

no, not really... let me explain why... knowing that you might be able to work around it...
the sp data is very tied to the wp installation its on... we site on top of the wp users and db... so any data in the forum is tied to that wp user db... if you move to another install, it will have to have the same users - otherwise the data wont tie to anything...
if you have forums on the second site, they will need to mix in with them and cannot share ids... or users or any other wp info...
make sense?

Yep.. Kind of what i was thinking.
Might be useful someday to allow a partial export through a tool of some kind. Something like the WP tools export / import page, post, etc.
Thanks for the reply.

we have had thoughts about some sort of export tool, but the problem of how to deal with the user related data would still exist... so, we shall see...
