Re: Integrating WP + BBP plugin + custom theme
The numbers represent topics/replies for each forum so if it says (3,4) that means there are 3 topics and 4 replies in that forum.
Also, I would suggest maybe upgrading bbPress to the latest nightly vs. as it does not use tables.

download link is on the bottom of the page.
***BACKUP YOUR SITE***
The nightly beta has been just fine for me and others, but as always backup first.
Your right, your forums look horrible. I’m kinda hoping that the new theme built into the new vs. of bbPress might help you out.
Also, your theme is from a decent company, I’d also go over there and ask them for a little bit of help with the styles. There is nothing conflicting that I see, but for some reason your tables are all evenly spaced which is why the homepage looks so bad. The new theme does not use tables, so it might help.
