It just defaults back to 10 when you remove all and save… Doesn’t that defeat the purpose?
I was looking for something like this as well for our “non-tech savy” audience and found that @Robkk answer works best: https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-enable-tinymce-visual-tab/

I fixed my issue by using the default wordpress search (not bb search widget) and by adding this snippet into my functions.php. This snippet adds the bbpress hook into the default search and works like a charm (adds topics & replies) to search results. This will also make it much easier styling the search results page consistently (forum results vs blog / page results).
Thanks to: @undergroundnetwork for your snippet!

You are correct! When you change the + symbol in between the words to %20, everything works as it’s supposed to.
@Robkk
Considering the change from the + symbol to %20 works, what would our next steps be in order to get this working properly? If we can get the search to return the %20 as the separator, everything should be fine.
I have tried this within the 2015 / 2016 default wordpress themes with the same issue. Plugins running are Ultimate Member, bbpress & WP SMTP
Thanks for the reply!
This is actually something I did before posting here (should have mentioned it) and while running the default 2015 theme, I am running into the same issue. This is the URL /forums/search/french+fries/ that is returning in the browser instead of the normal /?s=french+fries peram.
It’s strange as I have several other corporate wordpress sites running (not w/ bbpress) but have never had a problem with “out of the box” search widgets :)…
I will continue to test (only running 4 plugins) and see what comes from that.
