Scenario:
When I upgraded Buddypress and BBpress recently (two weeks ago), members can’t access the site-wide forums properly anymore.
1. Regular members can’t view the first entries in single topic pages anymore.
2. They don’t have access to the hidden forums they could access before.

All in all, only admins can see anything.

While trouble shooting, the ‘missing’ posts and forums show up when I have BuddyPress disabled. Could this be a user privilege conflict? I’ve reset my User Role Editor and deactivated the plugin but it didn’t solve anything. What I’m scared I have probably destroyed the capabilities settings completely. Is there a way to fix this without having to start from scratch? I’m more concerned about the content we’ve built up in more than a year.

Buddypress 1.6.2
BBPress 2.2.3
Wordpress 3.5

Just to add to this, here is a screenshot that made me worry about the user roles:

Keymaster role, for example, shows up in this dropdown and not just for the forum roles dropdown.
