One feature that I struggle a bit in why bbPress broke from the norm is Freshness. It is customary to have the last column for “Last post” which includes the date-time of last post (topic/reply) and the author of last post.

bbPress has decided to use “Freshness” instead of “Last post” as title. Instead of date-time, it displays time-since. Is there an easy way to change this?

Right now there are no filters in place so without creating a new theme there isn’t much you can do.

However, if you DID create a new theme, you could change “Freshness” to whatever you want.

For what it’s worth I agree with you – IMO there should eventually be a filter in place where you can chance that without having to create a new theme

That’s good to know Jared.

What do you think of the 2-3 other items I’ve mentioned in my long rant at https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/remove-toastnotice#post-101301

JJJ says no need yet, but will consider if it is a popular request.

@sooskriszta Well you asked for it, so I have just written a plugin that gives date and time instead of freshness.
It will be uploaded to wordpress plugins in the next few days, but you can download immediately from

Any feedback appreciated !
