Description

When I get an email from WordPress.org matcher, it shows the top level forum, not the child forum. For example, this is an email I got because of the use of the word "caldera" but it's not from the Caldera Forms plugin support forum. I had to click on that to know it.

In my opinion, the fact that it is in one of the ~50k child forums of the Plugins and Hack forum is less useful then which child forum it is in. On WordPress.org, the breadcrumbs show Support » Plugin: Hustle - Pop-Ups, Slide-ins and Email Opt-ins » Conflicts with Caldera forms which would be a way more useful bit of information to put in the email.

Yeah... that's kind of a trick. We don't actually have 50k "child forums". They're all threads in one single forum. We're just showing you a "view" of that forum which only includes the relevant threads for the plugin in question.

Not to say that the email could not be improved, but it's not as simple as that.
