Is there a way I can add an “@username…” to the start of the message when someone is replying?
I have threaded replies enabled and to make it clear to who they are replying to I would like to automatically @ the author.

I know that the user can do this manually themselves but in the case they do not, this would be helpful.

Thanks

add_filter( 'bbp_get_form_reply_content', function( string $reply_content ) {
    if ( isset( $_GET['bbp_reply_to'] ) && (int) $_GET['bbp_reply_to'] ) {
        $display_name = get_the_author_meta( 'display_name', get_post_field( 'post_author', (int) $_GET['bbp_reply_to'] ) );
        return '@' . $display_name . PHP_EOL . $reply_content;
    }
	return $reply_content;
});

You should add this code in “functions.php”.
