   The short answer is that you can't.

   bbPress would have no way to tell whether it was searching for a topic or a forum.

   Yes, you would need to go into your .htaccess file, plus something to make sure topic links went there... I'll look into it.

   Here it is:

   Go into your bb-includes/template-functions.php. Find the function called get_topic_link, it should look like this:

   function get_topic_link( $id = 0, $page = 1 ) {
   	$topic = get_topic( get_topic_id( $id ) );
   
   	$args = array();
   
   	$rewrite = bb_get_option( 'mod_rewrite' );
   	if ( $rewrite ) {
   		if ( $rewrite === 'slugs' ) {
   			$column = 'topic_slug';
   		} else {
   			$column = 'topic_id';
   		}
   		$link = bb_get_option('uri') . "topic/" . $topic->$column . ( 1 < $page ? "/page/$page" : '' );
   	} else {
   		$link = bb_get_option('uri') . 'topic.php';
   		$args['id'] = $topic->topic_id;
   		$args['page'] = 1 < $page ? $page : false;
   	}
   
   	if ( $args )
   		$link = add_query_arg( $args, $link );
   
   	return apply_filters( 'get_topic_link', $link, $topic->topic_id );
   }

   Change 'topic/' to 'konu/'.

   Now, go into your .htaccess file. If you're using Options +MultiViews, I don't know how this will work, but if you're using mod_rewrite, here's what to do:

   Find the lines that look like
   

   RewriteRule ^topic/([^/]+)/page/([0-9]+)/?$ /[YOUR FORUM DIRECTORY]/topic.php?id=&page= [L,QSA]
   RewriteRule ^topic/([^/]+)/?$ /[YOUR FORUM DIRECTORY]/topic.php?id= [L,QSA]

   and change them to
   

   RewriteRule ^konu/([^/]+)/page/([0-9]+)/?$ /[YOUR FORUM DIRECTORY]/topic.php?id=&page= [L,QSA]
   RewriteRule ^konu/([^/]+)/?$ /[YOUR FORUM DIRECTORY]/topic.php?id= [L,QSA]

   I think that's all you'll need to do...
