My forums are a mix of both; the old behavior was that the public forums showed up and the private ones did not. Now nothing shows up.
If/when you do you can create a ticket/bug here

I’ll setup a WP MU bbPress 2.1 install tomorrow and see what I can find.
Cheers,

Can’t replicate so I will hold off unless I encounter a replicable incident.
OK, thanks. The link would make a great addition to this forum’s sidebar

If you Google “bbpress trac” and hit “I’m feeling lucky” it should also take you right to it.
Hi,
I’m having the same problem. Would love to help resolve it but I’m afraid this is beyond my knowledge.
I guess it relates to that WP MU default behaviour is to send all registrations to the “main” blog. Can the bbpress form somehow hook into WP’s registration procedure to bypass the redirect? I wouldn’t know where to start.
WP MU almost needs to separate out Network Users, who administer sites, and blog users, who comment and post in the forum. Or allow each site to register its own users. Perhaps add blog id to the user table and let us chose how it should behave. Just thinking out loud 
In the mean time I think I might go back to my previous multisite implementation, which just involved a little hack in wp-config that swapped the database table prefix based on the domain calling the site. This means that each site has it’s own distinct User and Forum tables. Of course there are some obvious downsides too, but everything is functional. If anyone is interested in that idea then I’ve posted on my site about it.
Frustrating that this is the one thing that is stopping my site being exactly as I want it, but don’t get me wrong, bbpress 2.1 is great and I look forward to future releases. Keep up the good work.
I would, but I don’t even know where to begin looking for a link to it.
No reason to post three times, especially after I deleted your other duplicate.

Was this a previous conversion? Can you find any pattern in what’s missing and why?
If you can duplicate it, create a trac ticket.
Are your forums private or hidden?
Turn on WP_DEBUG. Read errors. Check error logs. Trace the error back to the culprit.
Have you tried recounting/repair the forums via /wp-admin/tools.php?page=bbp-repair
If you need help from an expert beyond the bbPress development team, hire one. 
It’s safe, but I don’t think I would use TinyMCE with anonymous posting turned on. If so, you should probably modify the TinyMCE functionality to restrict what UI elements are available.
Yeah, it eventually recounted and disappeared, but I think the fact that it shows at all is a bug.

You’d miss basically everything, because since 2.0 bbPress is dependent on WordPress. You can’t install it as a stand alone application anymore.
The bbPress Forum List Widget does not show in the side bar UNLESS I am logged into the site after the upgrade to 2.1. Presumably this is some new security setting, but I can’t find where to find it. I don’t want private forums and links to private forums to show, but I do want the other forums to be listed. Any help appreciated.
The site is here:
http://poetryroundup.us/whup/index.php
The top enty in the sidebar should be the forum list.
Thanks,
Martin
Ok, at the moment I tested this
function custom_bbp_breadcrumb($r) {
$r = ' | ';
return $r;
}
add_filter('bbp_before_get_breadcrumb_parse_args', 'custom_bbp_breadcrumb' );
and it seems to work, but maybe there is a more elegant solution… any help is appreciated
For security purposes I desire to install new bbPress 2.1 as stand alone app. Is this reasonable and if so, what functions or plugins might I miss functionality in doing so.
Alright, I was able to trace the root of the problem to the bbPress default theme.
I am using the bbPress 2.0.3 child theme copy located in the Themes folder, how can troubleshoot the theme to see what is going on?
Thanks,
After I deleted a topic from my forum, the “last updated by” alert at the top of the topics listing page says “and was last updated by Halle No Topics.”
Although “Halle No Topics” makes a pretty badass mob name, I think this is a display bug
.
I just upgraded to bbPress 2.1 with WordPress 3.4.1 and now I cannot connect to the my website I am getting: Server Error (HTTP Error 500)
Please help!
