This is not wpForo bug. This issue comes from your website. The theme or a plugin has already changed password reset page, It's currently located here:

https://www.website.com/forgot-password/

And it doesn't allow wpForo to open the default WordPress password reset page.

SOLUTION:

Please navigate in Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Members admin page. Find the "Custom Authorization URLs:" option and put /forgot-password/ in "Lost Password URL" field. Then save, delete cache and check it using other browser to test (the old redirection may be cached in browser).

In case you want to say thank you !)
We'd really appreciate and be thankful if you leave a good review on plugin page. This is the best way to say thank you to this project and support team.
