This plugin adds support for Topic Thumbnails with bbPress. It works by retrieving the first image from each topic and displaying it alongside the topic title on the index page. Thumbnails are sized according to the default ‘thumbnail’ size in your WordPress media settings. The images will also resize appropriately if you’re using a responsive WordPress theme.
This plugin works with GD bbPress Attachments and most other bbPress image management plugins.
If you enable this plugin while bbPress is disabled (or not installed) it will display a warning message.

More about me and my plugins
Since the year 1999 I do administration, customizing and programming for several forums, communities and social networks. In the year 2013 I switched from another PHP framework to WordPress. 
Because not all plugins I’d like to have exist already I wrote some own plugins and I think I’ll continue to do so.
If you have the scope at forums or social networks my other modules might also be interesting for you. <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?q=quan_flo" title="ifs-net / quan_flo WordPress Plugins" rel="ugc">Just take a look at my WordPress Profile to see all my Plugins.</a> Use them and if my work helps you to save time, earn money or just makes you happy feel free to donate – Thanks.
