After an update to the latest BP, I noticed that my admin cannot anymore manage forums. All the menu items – Forums, Topics, Replies – disappeared! I realized that my admin user is no longer managing forums. The only forum roles I can assign to users are spectator, moderator, participant, blocked. If I assign “moderator” to an user, the user can edit topic and replies, but not manage forums. What happened to admin or keymaster? I tried installing “User Roles Editor”, but it doesn’t show up capabilities for “Administrator” so I can’t edit the Administrator profile to change them… I’m lost.

I managed to fix the issue in a strange way… Went to bbpress plugin settings, temporarily set default role to keymaster (was still showing there), updated options – from then on, I was able to see “keymaster” role also in edit users panel. I assigned “Keymaster” to my admin and problem was fixed.
