That is the specific functionality I want for my forum, but can’t seem to find something that can do just that in the default theme or widgets.

Specifically, I want to show a list of most recently replied to topics and have the link to the latest topic (such as the timestamp links to on the main /forums/ page here).

The entire site here at bbpress.org is powered by WordPress and bbPress

Have you looked at using some shortcodes on WP pages to get what you are after?

Theres widgets too https://codex.bbpress.org/widgets/

I’m actually hoping to find the queries themselves, so I can have a little better control over layout, etc. and what’s included. I managed to find it in my theme’s search results, but ran into another issue and didn’t get a chance to dig through the theme to see what’s generating that just yet.

What I was looking for was bbp_topic_freshness_link();

This was never quite answered. How is bbpress.org running a page that lists all the threads in order of freshness?
