i searched litle with google and i discovered, that there is some beta bbpres package, which dont have this problem, but when i downloaded it and tried install, i got error that bbpress folder already exist.
so i have questions:
can i delete the bbpres folder and then install the beta package?
can i upgrade normaly from beta version to stable version after it will be released?

thanks for answers and sorry for my bad english

you should decativate and then uninstall the existing bbpress, you will not lose data.

Then install the beta

You are in a hurry to use php 7.1.
I think stability php is currently in php 5.6.x
Php 7.0 and 7.1 are causing problems with most software. Even if the software is not itself, there are problems with components and themes.
