  • I am also seeing this issue on multiple installations running BBP 2.6.4 on WP 5.3.2 (some multisite installations, and some single-site ones).

    There are (at least) a couple of tickets on this in the bbPress trac, no. 2722 and no. 2865.

    No. 2865 has a patch marked “under consideration”. In case it helps anybody, we’ve wrapped this patch as a plugin for bbPress 2.5.8:

    https://wordpress.org/plugins/fix-forum-emails/

    This should help to fix problems with HTML entities in notification emails on vanilla bbPress installs. It’s intended as a workaround until the issue gets fixed in bbPress core.

    The plugin won’t remove stray HTML or CSS in forum posts. Rogue markup like this can be caused by cut-and-paste operations in TinyMCE, aka the Visual Editor, if you have it enabled in bbPress. If you’re having these problems, we have another free plugin called “Forum Beginner Posts” in the repository. It enables TinyMCE for bbPress in paste-as-text mode by default.
