    I lost the password to my bbPress forum admin account. Do I need to re-install or is there a way for me to access/ reset the password?

    If you access your database via phpMyAdmin, you can reset the email of your admin account, and then, when you fail to login, ask the system to email you your password. If that doesn't work, simply register a new user, remember the password you used, and then, in phpMyAdmin, copy and paste that user's password over to your admin user. You'll then be able to login as admin using that password.
