Ultimate Member - bbPress

When a WordPress site uses bbPress forums alongside Ultimate Member profiles, members can otherwise encounter separate profile experiences. This plugin connects the two, transferring bbPress user profiles to Ultimate Member profiles and redirecting forum user links to those profiles. The result is a central place for members and visitors to view a person's profile and forum activity.

The plugin adds a forums tab to Ultimate Member profiles, where users can browse topics and replies, see activity counts, and manage forum subscriptions and favorites. Administrators can control tab visibility by role, restrict access to forums and topics, and set posting and reply permissions by role and forum. It connects the plugins without requiring bbPress template editing.
