Since bbPress is owned by WordPress and since our site was built with WordPress, we are trying to figure out what happened to the tens of thousands of VIEWS that use to show up inside your bbPress app, now they have disappeared.

any help would be appreciated.
thanks

Not sure what has disappeared – they are not in your menus but I can find and display forums and entries eg

What Happened to “Views” in bbPress 2.6.14?
In earlier versions of bbPress, Views were visible as a menu item in the WordPress admin under Forums > Views.

In version 2.6.14, the admin menu link to Views was removed by default as part of bbPress cleanup and streamlining.

However, the Views themselves still exist — they’re just hidden from the admin menu unless you’re actively using or registering them.

How to Restore the “Views” Menu
You can manually re-enable the Views admin menu by adding a small code snippet to your theme’s functions.php file or a custom plugin:
add_action( ‘bbp_admin_menu’, function() {
add_submenu_page(
‘edit.php?post_type=forum’,
‘Topic Views’,
‘Views’,
‘manage_options’,
‘edit.php?post_type=topic_view’
);
});
