Hi @tombot86,

of course ! You can use syntaxhighlighter evolved plugin.
Because BP is stripping out some html in posts replies, you have to modify a line in
bp-forums-template.php:1167 (or near these line)
Replace by this:
<code>`return apply_filters( ‘bp_get_the_topic_post_content’, wp_specialchars_decode( $topic_template->post->post_text, ENT_QUOTES ) );`</code>

And in your child theme functions.php, add this:
<code>`remove_filter( ‘bp_get_the_topic_post_content’, ‘bp_forums_filter_kses’, 1 );
remove_filter( ‘bp_get_the_topic_post_content’, ‘wptexturize’ );`</copy>

From now you can use the different shortcodes provided by the plugin to insert code snippets into your group forums posts.

Take care of quotes and backsticks by copy/pasting from here.

Here’s an example of what you will see on BP 1.6.2 MS/ WP 3.5
