<p>Add an advanced search form to bbPress search page with filters and search results ordering controls. On the admin side, you can control which user roles (or visitors) can use filters, and hide the filters you don’t want to use.</p>
<p>The Plugin adds the following filters:</p>
<ul>
<li>Forums, including an option to select forums, and search subforums</li>
<li>Users, select a user or type username</li>
<li>Content Type (reply, topic)</li>
<li>Topic Status</li>
<li>Topic Tags</li>
<li>Date Period, predefined list of periods</li>
<li>Change results sort order</li>
</ul>
<p>Also, plugin can replace the default search form to include the link to the advanced form. The plugin supports use of the templates’ replacement package plugin <a href="https://plugins.dev4press.com/gd-quantum-theme-for-bbpress/" rel="nofollow ugc">GD Quantum Theme Pro for bbPress</a>.</p>
<p>Plugin uses templates with filters and actions, and all templates can be overridden through theme, just like default bbPress templates can.</p>

powerSearch for bbPress

It's crazy that an Advanced Search wasn't included in bbpress.

Thank god this exists

Enhanced and powerful search for bbPress powered forums, with options to filter results by various criteria.

<p>Editing topics and forums in the bbPress powered forums can be a slow process because you can do it only from the edit pages, and for forums only from the administration side. If you need to perform quick changes, close topics, rename them, that can take a while if you need to go through several screens to reach the edit page.</p>
<h4>Quick Introduction Video</h4>

<p>Now, with forumManager for bbPress, you can do it quick and accessible from any topics or forums list on the frontend in two ways: single forum or topic editing and bulk editing of one or more selected forums or topics. Every forum or topic list (single forum, forums or topics index, topic views, user profile) now has controls to edit a single item or select items for bulk editing. And editing is done using popup modal dialog. You can even do something that bbPress doesn’t allow you to do: change the author of the topic.</p>
