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.

Once the plugin activated, go into your forums administration menu and define for each one of them if they will :
<ol>
<li>eventually accept support topic (default setting)</li>
<li>be dedicated to support</li>
<li>not accept support topics.</li>
</ol>
In the first case, a checkbox will be displayed to topic authors in order to let them define their topic as a support one. 
In the second one, no checkbox will be displayed, and the topic will automatically be a support request.
For these 2 cases, once on the topic page, the author, group admin / mod, or super admin will be able to manage the status of the topics (Resolved, Not resolved..).
In the third case, no checkbox will be displayed and topics will be regular ones.
Since 2.0, the plugin requires bbPress 2.5.
Administrators are able to manage the support topics from the Topics backend menu. Once on the admin edit screen of a topic, in the first right metabox, they can change the status of the topic. They can also bulk edit support status from the list of topics using the edit bulk action.
It will work with BuddyPress (2.0) Groups forums (powered by bbPress 2.5).
It’s available in french and english.
