OHMYGOD! *Exactly* What I Needed!!
If you have been tearing your hair out trying to make the font on your bbpress install bigger, or any other number of basic theme changes, *this* is the plugin! I can't believe it hasn't had more reviews!! And yes it worked with my new-in-2025 bbpress install even though it hasn't been updated in years. I honestly would give this plugin 10 stars if possible, and yes, I *did* immediately donate because it was *so* worth it to me!! Thank you, WeaverTheme, for creating this plugin!!

THANK YOU!
I was just about to give up on bbPress before I found this plugin. bbPress works (functionally) but the only way to change the look & feel was with PHP & CSS coding, which I don't know much about. I was so happy to find Weaver for bbPress -- now I can change the look & feel, set many display options etc. without any PHP or CSS coding required. Honestly I don't understand how anyone can use bbPress without "Weaver for bbPress". Thank you so much!
