I’d like to allow anybody who visits my site to post to a forum without having to login. Is this possible and if so, how do I do it?

Just enable ‘Anonymous Posting’ in the bbPress forums settings.

WordPress Dashboard -> Settings -> bbPress

I would recommend a captcha for posting, unless you love to get hundreds of spam posts a day

thanks so much.

If I do decide to keep a login for posting to the bb, how exactly does that work? Can each individual create their own username/pw? Is that something I need to manage on the WordPress/Users panel? I could have hundreds of people posting to the forum.
