I just tested out the code and it seems to work fine. Make sure that you copied over the whole bit of code and did not miss anything. I put the code on a gist file so maybe it will be easier to copy over.

I tried Tiny MCE Advanced and it caused alot of issues – half of an individual post showed up in my black background – half in the “white” text area

Maybe this is a CSS issue?? Not sure really.

still did not allow proper showing of the above formatting (showed code when published)

The code fixes it whenever you make a new post, it might not work for existing posts that have not parsed everything, it might need to be republished on the old posts.

really a mess so I went back to WP Edit

I have come across an issue that was present using WP Edit.

Also – all buttons are working fine in my other areas (like Sabai directory) for front end users – just BBPress?

bbPress tries to be secure for frontend posting for users, so that they do not post harmful javascript. It might be a little too secure.
