    great – thanks for posting the answer !

    sorry not sure how this is a security issue.

    since anyone with an admin permission can access both back and front end and these are both rendered through a browser, the effect is exactly the same.

    ie there is no technical/security difference between

    site.com/wp-admin/user-edit.php?user_id= etc.

    and

    site.com/forums/user/userxx/edit/

    They are both simply pages renedred through a browser.

    ok, If you are certain that

    1. the box is being ticked (by default it is left blank), and that
    2. emails are working from within bbpress (ie if someone else subscribes to the topic they get an email)

    then the standard fault finding applies…

    it could be a theme or plugin issue

    Themes

    As a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwenty, and see if this fixes.

    Plugins

    If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

    If you cannot do this to your site (say because it is live) then use the ‘troubleshooting’ features of this plugin to let you test without affecting other users

    Yes, that is standard bbpress behaviour – replies are not sent to the author on the grounds that he does not need to be told that he has posted a reply ๐Ÿ™‚

    I think bbpress notify follows that principal as well.

    There is a filter that could be used to change this behaviour if it is critical, but it will probably annoy as many posters as those who like it. Personally I have enough emails ๐Ÿ™‚

    If you like, I’ll take a more detailed look, but it may not be a free answer.

    I can see a lot of spam on this forum since a few days, there is no โ€œpre moderationโ€ for new comers ?

    It takes an equal amount of work to pre-moderate as mark then as spam. Given that many people only ever ask one question, it’s not worth the effort

    sorry, I thought I had answered that above, you play with these settings

    .mce-content-body p {
    	font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", "Bitstream Charter", Times, serif;
    	font-size: 16px;
    	color: #333;
    	overflow-wrap: break-word;
    	word-wrap: break-word;
    }

    Is this plugin not compatible with Enfold?

    or you could ask

    is enfold not compatible with this plugin?

    check out

    https://kriesi.at/support/topic/getting-bbpress-to-work-with-the-enfold-theme/

    and perhaps raise with enfold as this is a paid theme

    Put this in your child theme’s function file –

    ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/functions.php

    where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

    or use

    add_action( 'bbp_template_after_single_topic', 'rew_other_topics' );

    but latest 5 if you have style pack installed would be

    add_action( 'bbp_template_after_replies_loop', 'rew_other_topics' );
    
    function rew_other_topics () {
    	 $topic_id = bbp_get_topic_id() ;
    	 $forum_id = bbp_get_topic_forum_id($topic_id) ;
    		echo do_shortcode("[bsp-display-topic-index show='5' forum =".$forum_id." template = 'list']") ;
    }

    though this would show the topic again if it were in the latest 5!

    Is there a way to show similar topics at the end of a topic ?

    where – after the reply forum or before?

    similar topics

    The issue here would be to define how similar topics are identified?

    bbpress just uses the .body font from the wp-content.css file.

    You could style it using

    .mce-content-body p {
    	font-size: 25px;
    }

    but this will not save to the post, it will just be what is shown in the form

    ok, you suspect the theme, but need to prove that, so standard fault finding applies ie

    No restriction in forum size – this site uses bbpress with 130,000 odd topics. Server capability is of course key to any response time.

    Bbpress just uses wordpress login, so you will need to look at how that is done with wordpress.

    I can only suggest you try it, but in essence yes, bbpress has categories, forums, sub forums, topics and replies.
