Hello, im new to bbpress and need a bit of help. Is there any way that i can restrict the capabilities of a user in BBPress? I only want the role of ‘Participant’ to be able to view topics?

Then wny make them participants? You could assign members the “Spectator” role by default, which would give the same result.

You can change which role is assigned by default in Settings > Forums > Forum User Settings > Auto role.

It could be done with plugins to edit member roles, but in this case, why bother?
