I know it is what the phpBB team would like you to believe, but you would not be downgrading to use phpBB 3.0.13. The situation is very similar to the “great debate” between Python 2.x and 3.x — the older version is more stable, uses much less memory, and has better performance.
In any case, BridgeDD does not support phpBB 3.1.x and never will. Support for phpBB 3.1.x requires BridgeDD PRO, which is only available by becoming a BridgeDD Subscriber.
Thanks for your quick response. It’s the first time we use WP and phpbb.
Is BridgeDD PRO already commerical used? What’s the latest version?
And could you share us the detail price of BridgeDD PRO? 40$/year?
Before we pay for it, could we download any demo version for try and evaluate is it suitable for us?

There is no price for BridgeDD PRO. There is a US$40/year price to be a BridgeDD Subscriber, and perhaps the biggest benefit of a subscription is access to the current version of BridgeDD PRO.
My feeling is that BridgeDD offers sufficient functionality to serve as a demo for what is possible with BridgeDD PRO. Since you are using phpBB 3.1, you have no way to use BridgeDD. While unfortunate, that situation will not change since I believe phpBB 3.1 is a step backwards for the phpBB product line.
I strongly suggest that you read this post on the BridgeDD support board for information about BridgeDD PRO.
As for what you mentioned above, I read the post you sent. BridgeDD Pro is really powerful, but I m still confused whether BridgeDD Pro passed the beta test and has already been COMMERCIALLY USED or not? As you know, I am willing to be the BridgeDD Subscriber, but what else will I have? Upgraded BridgeDD Pro? BTW, may I have the demo version of BridgeDD Pro to make sure I get what I want? Thank you very much!

As I mentioned above, my “demo” version of Bridgedd PRO is BridgeDD. If you would like to see BridgeDD in action, I suggest that you install phpBB 3.0.13.
BridgeDD PRO was released commercially almost a year ago and is being used on a large number of sites. The post that you said you read contained links to some of the sites; perhaps you should read the post again.
In any case, if you contact me on my support board, I would be happy to provide additional URLs of sites that are using BridgeDD PRO to integrate their WordPress site to phpBB 3.1.x.
I am marking this topic as resolved because this topic has nothing to do with BridgeDD, and it should be discussed on my support board.
