I have seen a couple of people mention this… That said most find that the problem is fixed with bbPress 2.3. Can you download bbPress 2.3 RC1 from here and test again, hopefully the issue is fixed for you.
Indeed… Whoever did your site has left out the pagination component…
You can see the extra pages with the following URL’s as examples
http://blackflaggames.org/topics/page/2/ http://blackflaggames.org/topics/page/3/
Currently this is not possible with bbPress out of the box.
Moderators and Admins can ‘merge’ topics and you should see this as one of the options on any topic if you have the correct role assigned.

Take a look at this thread on creating your own language/translation files for bbPress.
Language file isn't working
Grab a free theme from WordPress https://wordpress.org/extend/themes/ and see how well it integrates with bbPress some themes support bbPress others just work.

Can you try updating to bbPress 2.3 RC1 and if you still have problems create a ticket in trac.

I think you might want to install the ‘bbPress Debug Bar’ by @mzaweb
It will show you exactly what templates are being loaded on each page of your site.

Can you try bbPress 2.3 RC1 https://bbpress.org/blog/2013/03/bbpress-2-3-release-candidate-1/
A similar issue was reported here but can no longer be reproduced.
You are correct, bbPress does not include any form of ‘live preview’ at this stage.
If you enable the ‘fancy editor’ though you do have a WYSIWYG which is similar to ‘live preview’
bbPress does not have any options to do what you are looking for at this stage.
That said there have been a couple of tweaks to how Private/Hidden forums for the upcoming bbPress 2.3 that you can grab bbPress 2.3 RC1 and see if it helps or not 😉
bbPress 2.3 – Release Candidate 1
Take a look at `bbp_get_participant_role` /includes/core/capabilities.php#L219
Try using `is_bbpress()` as the conditional.
@pdblizzard Strange that users don’t import correctly if BuddyPress is enabled…
What version of BuddyPress were you using and group or sites idle forums enabled?
I will try to reproduce it if I can…..
@notebookingpages Sadly, this and that fix are still beyond my skillz 😛
I’m on a roll… So… @wdfee Thanks for that heads up 🙂
@nikitajaye Can you try disabling all your plugins except bbPress and see if you still see 404’s.
@banica & @intellectteams As there are numerous problems listed in this thread related to 404’s you will need to explain your setup and the errors you see in more detail please.
@kitty-kilian Can you create a new user after disabling all plugins except bbPress thus trying to recreate what happens in what would be a ‘standard user’ in a ‘standard’ bbPress installation without any plugins modifying WP/bbP user roles.
PS and yes, even with Premise switched off it gets you a 404 instead of asking you to login (which I guess it ought to)
You should not be seeing a 404 in this scenario either.
@fagiano1973 I can’t reproduce the ‘topic looks like a filename’.
Can you provide some more info that would help us reproduce it and/or try bbPress 2.3 RC1
It looks like WordPress Registrations are not enabled for your site.
You can check if WP is allowing registrations here /wp-admin/options-general.php
(Or a registration plugin is doing weird things)
Search is built into bbPress 2.3
GGive it a try if you want https://bbpress.org/blog/2013/03/bbpress-2-3-release-candidate-1/ 🙂
