   Is there a plugin or a way to code this? This was a feature that helped me increase the number of registered users back then when I was using SMF.

   How can this be achieved with bbPress?

   there is no plugin, but it's easy to create (this is just an example not a full working snippet)
   If your visitors are from the same network you might have problems with this.

   session_start();
   $ipkey = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
   $_SESSION[$ipkey]++;
   if ($_SESSION[$ipkey] >= 10) {
     header("Location: /register.php");
     exit;
   }

   check also the function on my own forum.

   You could have the browser drop a cookie and then track pageviews through that... then when the user hits a pre-set number of pageviews, a registration page could appear.

   If you're looking for a point and click plugin that does this, it doesn't exist AFAIK. You'd to commission someone to program it...
