as no one answer this, i tried it by myself. i found a function in bbp-style-pack plugin for that.

if (function_exists('bsp_is_forum_unread_amount'))
{
	
	add_shortcode( 'bbp_count_new', 'bbpress_count_new' );
	function bbpress_count_new( $atts )
	{
		
		$output = "";
		$count_new = 0;
		

		$query_foren = new WP_Query(array( 'post_type' => 'forum' ));
		
		
		while($query_foren->have_posts())
		{
			$query_foren->the_post();
			
			$post_id = get_the_id();
			
			$bbp_forum_privategroups = get_post_meta( $post_id, '_private_group');			
			$bbp_user_privategroups = preg_split('/\*/', get_user_meta (get_current_user_id(), 'private_group', true), -1, PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY);
			
			if ( count( $bbp_forum_privategroups ) == 0 )
			{
				$amount_unr = bsp_is_forum_unread_amount( $post_id );
				$count_new += $amount_unr->amount;
			}
			else
			{
				if ( count( array_intersect( $bbp_forum_privategroups, $bbp_user_privategroups )) > 0 )
				{
					$amount_unr = bsp_is_forum_unread_amount( $post_id );
					$count_new += $amount_unr->amount;
				}
			}
		}
		
		if ($count_new > 0 )
		{
			ob_start();
			?><span style="margin-left: 0.3rem; font-size: 0.8rem; padding: 0.4rem;"> <?php echo($count_new); ?></span><?php
			$output = ob_get_contents();
			ob_end_clean();
		}
		
		return $output;
	}

	
}

i hope i didn’t oversee something, because it is also combined with private forum groups!

I don’t know how you excactly you want to style the forum index page, but i found out that the index page doesn’t have the bbpress class included in the body tag like the sub pages. So i had the problem too that i couldn’t style the index page.

Here is my code i use to add this class, and others, to the body tag for the index page. Then you can style the index page with css.

add_filter( 'body_class', 'bbpress_add_body_class' );
function bbpress_add_body_class( $classes )
{

	global $wp;

	$bbpress_index = get_option ('_bbp_root_slug');
	$bbpress_search = get_option ('_bbp_search_slug');
	

	if (strpos($wp->request, $bbpress_index) !== false)
	{
		$classes[] = "bbpress";		
	}

	if ($wp->request == $bbpress_index)
	{
		$classes[] = "bbpress-index";
	}

	if (strpos($wp->request, $bbpress_index . "/" . $bbpress_search) !== false)
	{
		$classes[] = "bbpress-search";		
	}
	

	return $classes;
	
}

Thanks Robin!

And here for the record the full code i use:

add_filter('bbp_get_breadcrumb', 'bbpress_filter_breadcrumbs', 10, 4);
function bbpress_filter_breadcrumbs ($trail, $crumbs, $r, $args)
{
   return '<div class="bbp-breadcrumbs">' . $trail . '</div>';
}

use if(strpos($wp->request, $bbpress_index) !== false) if you also want to restrict all possible sub-urls!

bbpress private groups does a good job to hide forums, but that still doesn’t remove the index page. if anyone needs to restrict the index page for a complete private forum, here is the code:

add_action( 'wp', 'restrict_bbpress' );
function restrict_bbpress()
{

	global $wp;
	global $wp_query;	
	
	$bbpress_index = get_option ('_bbp_root_slug');
	
	if ($wp->request == $bbpress_index)
	{

		$user = get_userdata(get_current_user_id());
		
// Example for a user role member
		if (! is_user_logged_in() || 
		    ! in_array( 'member', (array) $user->roles ))
		{
			$wp_query->set_404();
			status_header( 404 );
		}

	}

}

WOW, Thanks for that fast reply!!! I will check it out.

Thank you

Ok, can i restrict this more for a specific user role?

Actually i want to have a forum that is for special members only. So nothing should be visible, accessable or should be found without a special role.

[regnalf]

I need this functionality too, no answers yet?

[regnalf]

I wanted to style the body tag too, in the subpages like topic or forum the css class is in the body class section. the #bbpress-forums is deeper inside the page.

[regnalf]

It’s about the [bbp-forum-index], but it seem that the failure is coming from my theme (pro from theme.co)

If I style the page with their builder the output seems to be broken. It works if the page is created with the standard WordPress editor.

I will contact them about this.

Found this, while searching for a solution with the shortcode on an own page. This issues seems still exist in 2021!!! If i create a page with shortcode the page show an empty page if the forum index has the same permalink as the the page!
