I have just installed bbPress onto a brand new WordPress install and have what may be a very basic question, but I seem unable to work it out!

How do I allow new users to join the Forum that I have created so that they can create topics and/or comment on existing forum topics?

Many thanks

Create a page and call it something like forum registration.
Add the registration shortcode: [bbp-register]
Then link to the new page.

(You can find more shortcodes here: https://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/)
