Hi there,

I want to ask if I set a user in WordPress as author and as moderator in bbpress forum, if is correctly to say that he will be able to edit topics and replies of others user?

Yeah, the role of moderator would allow this user to edit topics/replies. Check out the prebuilt roles/caps here.

Also, by giving them the role of author they’d gain access to the back-end of your site for other content (create posts, etc.), as well.

These are two separate roles that do two different things.
