how to search everything

The main search uses any custom post types (when you don’t set post_type query var) so if you’re missing public custom post types from that, then most likely those custom post types are registered with exclude_from_search as true.

Check if the plugins have filters to change that or try e.g. to override it with:

add_filter( 'register_post_type_args', function( $args, $post_type )
{
    if( in_array( $post_type, [ 'foo', 'bar' ], true ) && (bool) $args['public'] )
        $args['exclude_from_search'] = false;

    return $args;
}, 999, 2 );

where foo and bar are some custom post type slug examples that are public.

In bbpress forum and topic post types are registered public but with exclude_from_search as true (src). Also note it’s singular and not forums and topics.

We can check for public and search excluded post types with:

$types = get_post_types( [ 'exclude_from_search' => true, 'public' => true ] );

that might contain an array like this one:

Array
(
    [foo] => foo
    [bar] => bar
)
