It’s nothing bad as it’s just a notice – you can certainly continue using the plugin without any worry! This will likely be fixed in the next update.
It sounds like you have WP_DEBUG set to true. If this site is running in production you might consider switching it to false so users won’t see any notices.
Do you have a recent backup you can revert to? (Though I am guessing not).
Paste your bb-config to a website like http://pastie.org/ and we will be able to see what line 17 is (without the code getting messed up).
If there is any sensitive information such as passwords that are in the file make sure and remove those before posting here.
Ultimately I’m back to where I began. I want to continue using the WP top bar but have the edit account option link to bbPress’s account page.
No, I am not aware a way to easily keep the admin bar but filter the user link so that it goes to the bbPress profile page instead of your wp-admin user.
Something like this would need to be a custom plugin.
I mentioned various things you can do, without touching virtually any code, that would help keep users from hitting /wp-admin – unfortunately hacking the admin-bar is not one of those things.
Yep, but not without editing the theme and getting dirty with a little PHP.
Just use the bbPress Login Widget that is packaged with bbPress 
You would want to disable the admin bar site-wide for “Subscribers”.
Then you would have a link in your site/theme that takes your members to the bbPress profile page where they can edit their profile.
If you disable the admin bar and use login/registrations forms via shortcodes there is really no reason for the users to ever use /wp-admin unless the specifically went to it.
No problem – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cascading_Style_Sheets
CSS controls the look (styling of the website). Unfortunately without knowing some degree of CSS there is no easy way to tweak the look of things.
You can do user registration and user login all on the front end using shortcodes and/or other plugins available – there is no reason the basic user needs to use wp-admin at all.
Shortcodes: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-20-shortcodes
jjj is the primary/lead developer for bbPress so he might be able to give you a more specific answer.
Right now there are only 3 remaning tickets for 2.1 (https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/query?status=assigned&status=new&status=reopened&group=status&milestone=2.1) so my guess would be sooner than later.
There is no reason a user has to access the admin as the profiles can all be edited though front end.
This plugin will also help https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-no-admin/
There’s a “Zip Archive” link on the bottom of https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/branches/plugin – this will be the latest development version.
Just keep in mind, while 2.1 is general stable, it’s still beta so make a backup of things first!
I’m not 100% sure, but my guess is that your theme is doing some filtering/modifications to the_content, and the result is stuff looking weid.
The page that is messed up is an archive page, so I would start there and look through you theme and see what modifications it does to the archive pages.
The Genesis Framework does something very similar and they are just some things you have to work around.
jjj has committed a fix. If you update your 2.1 install everything should be good. Again, thanks for reporting the bug.
Unfortunately I don’t have one.
Judging by all the problems listed on https://wordpress.org/tags/network-publisher?forum_id=10 I would say this plugin is not coded well or up to standards. In fact I would avoid using it all together.
If you find a plugin that is done properly it should likely work with out any issues.
I just tested it and you are right! Seems to be screwy when using the numeric permalinks.
We’re going to look into that. I definitely appreciate you coming back and posting about the problem you encountered – this will help us make 2.1 as solid as possible when it is released publicly
Hmm, I’ll ping @jjj about this, however it seems to be working for me (the original method).
Copy everything from /bbp-theme-compat into your active theme directory. Once that’s done bbPress should detect it (in 2.1 that is) and use that instead!
Sounds like problem with the Network Publisher plugin.
They should be checking the post type before sending out notifications (eg is it a post, page, forum reply). Most plugins with similar functionality do this, that way other custom post types don’t interfere.
I’m not familiar with the plugin, so I can’t say for sure, but I would ask them and see what they say.
There is nothing out of the box, no.
You would need to create a new bbPress theme from scratch that is heavily customized. However it’s certainly do-able.
Everything looks OK to me, just need to tweak the CSS as you see fit
That very well could be true, however it doesn’t seem to be holding back other forum packages such as Vanilla which offer no advanced wysiwyg editor out-of-the-box.
It was only a matter of time until it made it into bbP core though.
Closing. If you have any questions regarding shortcodes feel free to create a new thread.
Closing. If you have a question about one of the FAQ items feel free to create a new thread. FAQ is going to hopefully be getting a nice update after 2.1 is released

bbP 2.1 has TinyMCE.
You can download 2.1 by clicking Zip Archive on this page: https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/branches/plugin
