bbPress Info Widgets

Description

These three widgets grab basic information from your bbPress installation. The three widgets will:

  • Display a list of forums
  • Display recent topics (order by number of replies, most recent replies, and recently created topics)
  • Display number of participants in a topic and the number of posts in a topic

These widgets come without any CSS styling, so you will need to adjust the styling yourself. You can find the HTML for the widgets in the /FoolWidgets/views/ folder. All widget files are titled *-widget.php.
