I have set up a forum at:

http://dev.sandiegoala.org/forum-2/

But when clicking to any of the topics etc. I get a 404 error

i.e http://dev.sandiegoala.org/forums/topic/topic-1-2/

I know that the theme is causing the 404 errors, because when i switch to another theme it fixes the issue. Does anyone have any ideas on what the theme might be doing here?

BTW the theme is http://themeforest.net/item/saladmag-responsive-wordpress-magazine-theme/7049401
and unfortunately their support appears to be obsolete.

Thanks for any help!

You can try and see if resetting your permalinks helps any

Navigation Links Return 404s Errors

Other than that maybe try putting the main bbPress templates into a child-theme.

Thanks. I had already tried resetting the permalinks and just tried the second suggestion of child theme. Still no luck.

The freshness looks off a little, if your theme had custom bbPress templates in it you can copy that over to your child theme if you still want to use a child theme. Well if copying the templates caused the freshness looking off issue.

For your 404 errors you really have to try to find a resolution from the theme author since the issue is present from the theme.
