I’ve been at this for a while. I have a wordpress multisite installation. I want to provide bbpress as an option to all the users of blogs on the network. The problem is, if the plugin is not network activated users of the sub-blog cannot activate it. They get a permissions error. The only way I’ve found to get around this is to network activate it, which I do not want. Many of my users will not need forums and by network activating it they all get the widgets, dashboard notifications, and pages created.

How do I fix this bug? It does this with bbpress 2.3.X and 2.4.
