Description

With the upgrade to bbPress 2.x, it's no longer possible to view user's website URL specified in their WP.org profile.

This is important for moderators, because users often forget to mention the site they need help with in their initial post. Most of the time it's the site from their WP.org profile, so showing it in their forum profile would help to avoid unnecessary questions and provide relevant answers faster.
