As of ~2.3, the “allowed tags” are filterable within bbPress.
Look for the filter bbp_kses_allowed_tags. It’s in includes/common/formatting.php.
At the moment no, it’s not available. I’ll talk to jjj about the possibility of releasing the theme (or a version of it) to the public.
There is a bbPress signature plugin. Search the WordPress.org plugin repository and you should find it.
For security purposes it is not allowed.
Otherwise users could do some very malicious things such as iframes that trigger js attacks, etc.
It’s the same reason why WordPress does not allow HTML in post comments.
If you need messaging, activate BuddyPress and enable the messaging component.
We have no plans to bring private messaging to bbPress.
Copy
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/content-archive-forum.php
to
wp-content/themes/[your-theme]/bbpress/content-archive-forum.php.
Edit as you see fit. You’ll likely want to place whatever before <div id="bbpress-forums">.
You can copy any template elements that you want/need to change to a bbpress folder inside your theme and bbPress will automagically use those template files instead of the default ones.
What you want to do is tweak the bbPress CSS. However you don’t want to tweak the copy in the plugin because when you update it will get overriden. Here’s what you’ll want to do.
Copy:
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/css/bbpress.css
to:
wp-content/themes/[YOUR-THEME]/css/bbpress.css
Then edit and make tweaks to the bbpress.css as needed to match your theme.
Hmm, strange. The plugin should trigger the download of http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/bbpress.zip which is 2.4 alpha (trunk).
We’ll have a look and see if the version compare isn’t running right. Thanks.
Unfortunately at this time there is still no poll plugin or capability that exists for bbPress 2.x.
It can certainly be done, however will require some coding knowledge and a little bit of elbow grease.
It sounds like your child theme is trying to load bbpress_functions.php which doesn’t exist.
Go to your child theme’s functions.php file and comment out line 89 which is portably the culprit.
Unless your theme was specifically designed to support bbPress (which honestly, most themes are not) it shouldn’t be trying to include said file so you can comment it out.
I think if you update bbPress using the Beta Tester plugin it should pull down trunk, which contains the fix.
Give a try and see.
Have you tried turning on the “auto role” setting? That will auto assign them when they visit the site.
Look into the bbPress shortcodes that are available.

Hmm, I’m not sure what’s going on. The upcoming 2.3.2 release will have a fix for the editor issues, but I can’t say if that will the email notification problems or not.
The upcoming 2.3.2 has a fix, until this disable the visual editor like it is by default.
This is fixed in the upcoming 2.3.2.
That shouldn’t go in bbPress. Never modify the plugin, everything gets lost when you update.
It should go in your theme’s functions.php file.
This plugin lets you easily dump and shuffle databases back and forth. I’d give it a try (backup first of course).

Does you theme have the ability to set layout controls per page? Does it have hooks for that?
Currently that’s not a feature we have yet, though it’s on our radar. Hopefully it’s something that will be added in 2.4 or 2.5.

The “Visual mode” of the fancy editor is cumbersome and was causing issues for many users, so it was removed in bbPress 2.3.1.
You can turn it back on with this plugin http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-enable-tinymce-visual-tab/
Thanks for reporting. Looks like it is indeed a bug. Hopefully we can get a fix in 2.3.2.

I’m confused. Are you posting HTML that you want to _parse_ or are you posting HTML that you want in a code block like:
