If you want to delete everything bbpress datawise and start again then
Dashboard>tools>forums>reset forums
sorry that it doesn’t work with multisite – only so much free time I can give to coding plugins 🙂
Try adding !important – your theme may be overriding the settings viz
Layout and functionality – Examples you can use
you can use the shortcode [bbp-topic-index] in a new page – this will show the latest 15 topics across all forums with pagination.

An interesting discussion, and can I perhaps add my thoughts as a plugin developer
You start from a perspective that bbpress would naturally seek to be all things to all people and should want to compete with other products.
I cannot speak for bbpress authors, but as a plugin author I write for the enjoyment and challenge of coding and to help others – I am not in an arms race or commercially minded – I can do plenty of that outside bbpress – and if some code I write has one user or thousands as long as it does what I want it to, I am happy. Yes it is nice to have good feedback, and improve it using others suggestions, but when these are posted as pseudo demands, or as a big list of complaints, then I have to say I would turn off. I do this for free, in my spare time, and for my enjoyment, and I suspect that the bbpress authors do the same as well.
I have to say therefore I find your general thrust of your demands, and your ‘I know better’ how bbpress should be run attitude upsetting.
This is a free product – if you want to improve it don’t whinge for the sidelines – write a detailed spec or better still write the code and submit it yourself.
Just telling others how they should do something that costs you nothing seems a very negative way to go about things.
Just my view 🙂
try changing
$args['count_sep'] = false;
to
$args['count_sep'] = '';
This is an s2member problem.
BBpress uses the same database meta_key to store both the wordpress and bbpress names. So there are two entries in the wordpress database
so in usermeta the meta-key against a user for wp_capabilities will be set to something like
a:2:{s:13:”administrator”;s:1:”1″;s:13:”bbp_keymaster”;b:1;}
I would suggest that in bulk mode, s2member is just overwriting the whole of this value with the new s2member level, thus deleting the bbpress value.
If you post the above to the s2member support site, they should understand the issue
not sure if this is spam as I can’t find a forum.
Come back within 24 hours please
yes, use the latest activity widget in my plugin

The ‘something happened’ is unfortunately the key to this.
Users will have a role, and the default roles are stated in
bbPress User Roles and Capabilities
so as long as a user has the right level, then the default will tell you what they should have.
But an plugin, or change to functions code can change the default roles, so without pouring over the code, it is impossible to say whether a user has a particular level beyond seeing what they can do.
So you’ll need to come back to ‘something happened’ to wpork out wthat that was and why it affected.
So have you done
theme updates
plugin updates
changed themes
added or deactivated plugins
ok, found the link in your other post.
Posts and comments are a wordpress thing and controlled by wordpress roles
Forums, topics and replies are a bbopress thing and controlled by bbpress roles
You’ll find wordpress roles at the top of a user edit, and bbpress at the bottom
Dashboard>users>all users>edit user and that’ll get you to the screen
and yes functions.php is where you should put it, but generally in a child theme
Functions files and child themes – explained !
