I installed bbPress 2.0.2 on my WordPress 3.3.1 site and I can’t get the shortcodes to work. If I add a shortcode to any of the forums it just shows the [shortcode].

http://www.rmminc.org/forums is blank the forums I created don’t show up on the page.

Below are two forums I setup

http://www.rmminc.org/forums/forum/homelessness

http://www.rmminc.org/forums/forum/poverty

Short codes are not used in bbPress, to limit their exposure from unauthorized users. Most shortcodes do not have capability checks attached to them, and since bbPress comes with its own shortcodes, we don’t want shortcodes inside shortcodes.

Maybe in a future version.

More likely it’s your theme not working with bbPress, then. Does whatever you’re trying to do, work correctly with TwentyEleven or bbPress (TwentyTen) ?

Yes the forums show up when I change the theme to the bbPress 2010 theme.
