Hi,
Right now, my ‘Discussions’ WordPress page showing:

Topic Voices Posts Last Post

I used Shortcode ‘[bbp-topic-index]‘ on this page.

Here I wish to show the recent posts, which are posted in any forum/topic. Is it possible?

yes, you can use the latest activity widget in a sidebar, but it will, be your theme that determines whether you have a sidebar.

Hi,

Thank you very much for your valuable guidance and quick support. I am working on this. It’s a very nice plugin. Very useful.

great – thanks for the nice feedback !

Hi @robin-w,

One more doubt. Need to display the ‘topic description’ (which we are giving while creating a topic) on ‘the topic list view’. Also if there are more than three lines need to add a ‘Read more’ at the end.

While googling, I found that some years back you have given support for this:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/how-to-create-a-topic-description-under-topic-in-forum-list/

Or else where should I put this code?:

function rk_topic_description() {
	    	echo bbp_topic_excerpt();
}

add_action('bbp_theme_after_topic_title','rk_topic_description');

Pls help, I am not that much familiar in coding.

Put this in your child theme’s function file – or perhaps much better use

which does all the hard work for you !

eg:
