Dozens of options for your forum. Makes setting up much easier.
Report a bug about "Mark all topics as read" button
By 
First of all, this plugin is great and very useful. Thank you for your work!
I would like to report a bug.
In the Unread Posts tab, for the 6th option, Opt-in or Opt-out options, I selected the Allow users to opt-in option.
However, I noticed that the "Mark all topics as read" button still appears on the page for users who have not chosen to enable the "Display unread icons" feature or for users who are not logged in.
I believe this is a bug because this button is meaningless for those users.
I also saw that the code for this feature is no longer maintained, but I would really appreciate it if you could fix this bug.
I tried custom the function code but it didn't work...
function bsp_add_unread_actions () {
global $bsp_style_settings_unread ;
if (!is_user_logged_in()) return;
$user = wp_get_current_user();
$user_id = $user->ID;
$optinout = (!empty(get_user_meta($user_id, 'bsp_unread_optinout', true)) ? get_user_meta($user_id, 'bsp_unread_optinout', true) : '');
$show_unread = false;
if ($bsp_style_settings_unread['optinout'] == 1) {
$show_unread = true;
}
elseif ($bsp_style_settings_unread['optinout'] == 2 && $optinout == 1) {
$show_unread = true;
}
elseif ($bsp_style_settings_unread['optinout'] == 3 && $optinout != 2) {
$show_unread = true;
}
if ($show_unread) {
add_action("bbp_theme_before_topic_title", "bsp_ur_icon_wrapper_begin");
add_action("bbp_template_after_single_topic", "bsp_ur_on_topic_visit");
add_action('bbp_theme_before_forum_title', 'bsp_unread_forum_icons');
add_action('bbp_template_before_single_forum', 'bsp_test_mark_as_read');
}

Really Great Plugin and Support

"bbp style pack" is a really great free WordPress plugin! When I used their free support this week, codejp3 was super awesome. I needed help on another occasion and Robin Wilson was fantastic!!! This plugin adds all of the functionality to make bbPress most useful and user friendly. Thanks!!!
Essential Plugin!

I cannot imagine running a bbpress forum without this plugin. It's completely indispensable as far as I am concerned — and, any time I have a problem (very rare and often related to my own customizations) the support is fantastic and highly responsive.
Excellent service
By 
I use this plugin for almost 3 years and it's great. Really helpfull.
Also Robin created a plugin for me, specially for my needs. Even after 4 months he helps me with some issues.
