Hello, I am the site admin for http://www.officialgenaleenolin.com and we are using the bbPress plugin. some other company built this site and the owner was not pleased with the customer service and then I inherited the site. I had to start by migrating it from one server to another and all seemed fine but then I am noticing users are not able to create topics anymore. But when I as the admin go into the admin backend and create a topic from the backend, it will create one. The problem is that my users cannot. Could you tell me is it a simple setting or a larger issue. All users are set as participants and must be a paid user to view the forum. They can view the forum as normal but cannot post to it. This is a new plugin to me as well.

Try running the ‘Remap existing users to default forum roles’ repair tool.

It also looks like you are using another plugin to control access to bbPress forums.

What is this plugin and does it work with bbPress’ roles?
