The Ultimate Member bbPress add-on integrates bbPress forums with Ultimate Member profiles: each topic and reply is a bbPress custom post (topic, reply) authored by a WordPress user, with the Ultimate Member profile rendered against that author. Topic and reply counts per user are written to usermeta keys (commonly _bbp_topic_count, _bbp_reply_count) which the add-on exposes on the profile screen. The default bbPress admin lists topics and replies as separate post screens, which is right for moderation actions and unhelpful for understanding forum participation across the community.

SleekView reads bbPress topic and reply post types joined with wp_users and Ultimate Member usermeta and renders them as a single audit table. Filter to last-7-days replies for daily moderation, sort by author for power-user shortlists, group by forum_id to see which forums carry the conversation. The same dataset the chart view aggregates becomes a row-level surface for moderators and forum admins.

bbPress and Ultimate Member keep owning topic editing, replies and profile rendering. The table view owns the audit surface, so participation stops hiding inside two separate admin lists.

The Ultimate Member bbPress integration captures the data forum operators need: who started which thread, who replied and how often. The default surface places that data inside separate topic and reply admin lists, which is right for editing one post and unhelpful for almost everything moderators do at the cohort level. A unified queryable table answers the questions managers actually ask: who is the daily queue, who is helpful, which forum needs a stickied topic.

Same bbPress posts, same author_ids, completely different decision posture. The table renders the forum bbPress already runs as an auditable cohort, which is the difference between knowing topics exist and knowing how the forum is doing this week.
