Enable bbPress for Block Themes

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 100% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   It’s simple, nothing extra, and works without any problems.

   I’m trying to minimise my dependency on plugins but I’d been going round in circles trying to fix the lack of support for block themes. Until bbPress is updated to support block themes, this plugin is essential. As soon as I activated it, my forums appeared! Thank you for your efforts, Oliver.

   This little beauty makes bbpress bahave in block themes, which it doesn’t out of the box. Straighten out the oddity and randomness of bbpress. No point in hesitating. This is the fix and the cure. Thx man!
