I figured it out! There is a plugin called ‘Members’ that allows you to make the forum private, then allow certain users to access it and see all the topics.

Here is the link I found on this BBPress Forum with the information.

Hey jaredatch, I see that johnjamesjacoby replied to ticket #1805 that this would be possibly added to a future release? I can’t figure out how to contact him. How can I get an approximate time frame in which this may happen? I have to tell my client something. I am so frustrated as I had to launch their site without the forum and about to have to tell them they can either have it only public or not at all

So does anyone have a resolution to this issue?

Right!
