Image captions not displaying in forum posts

If I add an image with a caption using the tinyMCE editor it generates the code below which is displayed properly in the WP editor and if I preview the post from outside the forum.

[caption id="attachment_683" align="alignnone" width="300"]<a href="/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/IMG_0089.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-683" src="/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/IMG_0089-300x225.jpg" alt="An image description" width="300" height="225" /></a>My image caption[/caption]

However, once the post is added to the forum, I get the image but the caption codes are ignored.
```
[caption id="attachment_683" align="alignnone" width="300"]
<my image here>
My image caption[/caption]
```
I have tried switching Themes to Twenty Fiifteen and Twenty Thirteen but the problem persists.

My site here
WP Version 4.1.1
BB Press Version 2.5.4

I am having the same issue right now and was wondering if a solution was ever found? I tried the bbpress-do-short-codes plugin and it seems to work for google chrome, but not firefox. I would ok to just disable image captions from the tinymce editor too. I’ve been trying to figure out the css code so I could just slap it with a display:none, but haven’t had any luck.

I’m using WP v4.2.2 and BB Press 2.5.4.
