1. Create a fresh Flarum using the standard install instructions
2. When you create the Flarum make sure the email is different to the original admin in Wordpress otherwise there will be some conflicts
3. Edit wpForo_to_Flarum.php lines 12 - 17 and fill in Database username, database password, Wordpress database name, Flarum database name, Wordpress tables prefix and Flarum database prefix
4. Place wpForo_to_Flarum.php file into the Flarum root directory
5. Run the script simply by visiting your_forum_url/wpForo_to_Flarum.php

Known issues

1. It will not copy users passwords.
2. In Flarum user profile Posts & Discussions number will be "0" despite all succesfully transfered data. It will be updated to a real number after user's first new post/discussion in Flarum
