Hi Tom

I have check each backup i have and it seems i deleted that table after migration from bbPress to save space 🙁

Is there something else that can be done? I think to import old database in to a clean site and to redo this migration. What you think this would work to have needed database tables?

Then at the end somehow to import that changed data to current database.

Hi Filip,

I'm really sorry but we have no chance to do this. There is no way to determine the old post id and new post id relation to be able migrate old post id attachment to according new post id. The table you've deleted contains this data. There no other indicator, we can't use post titles and post contents to determine this relation. The rate of duplicated post titles and content is very high.

The only way to do this is re-migration, but this will remove all new topics and posts of current wpForo forum. I'll ask Martin to try find relations using a simple sequence of inserted posts in wpForo table, but this is a very poor solution and may not work.

Hi Tom and all Gvectors team,want to thank you everyone for great support!

The attachments were fixed and everything looks great, waiting for new add-ons to buy in future.

P.S. If someone have run in same problem it is easy to recover deleted wp_mg2wpforo database tables just import the old database that contain bbPress and GD bbPress Attachment tables and using current site rename the database in config.php and redo the migration again but before make sure forums,topics,replies in wpForo tables are empty.
