Send bbPress forum and topic subscription emails using Buddypress’ email API. Now you have pretty, customizable, HTML emails for your forums.
Note that BP Emails for BBP sends emails differently than bbPress. bbPress places every subscriber email in the BCC field, and sends one email. BP Emails for BBP, asynchronously, sends one email per subscriber. This may help improve email deliverability if you have forums or topics with a large number of subscribers. Email providers don’t always look favorably on emails with large BCC fields. At the very least, this should improve page load time when posting a new topic or reply.

BP Emails for BBP

I tested this plugin and it works just like the BuddyPress emails. Makes it easy to customize emails across both plugins so that all communication from the site is branded.

bbPress Topic Sections allows to split the topic content field into several sections, allowing to setup more detailled topic forums; eg. for having an ads forum.
The content of the topic sections is just added to the post content (when saving a post); and extracted when editing/displaying it. 
Which means that it gracefully degrades if you choose at some point to disable the plugin !
In the Administration Panel, there will be a new box “Topic Sections” on the forums pages, that works like regular post tags. 
If you add some topics sections there, it will add new section fields when creating / editing a topic under this forum.
Under Forums > Topic Sections, you can edit each of your topic sections to add a description (that will be shown on the forms) and setup 
several parameters for the section :
<ul>
<li>section required (validation not yet implemented)</li>
<li>maximum characters allowed (validation not yet implemented)</li>
<li>WYSIWYG editor enabled</li>
</ul>
Built with a lot of hooks so you can customize it easily !
