I'm doing a wordpress solution with BuddyPress and bbPress, where I need to display the five newest topics on the homepage, as if it was blog-entries, but it seems kind of hard to accomplish.

I'm figuring I gotta do something with the activity stream, but it seems like the stream is based on the user who is currently logged in, which is not what I want.

So what should I do?

  1. Use a nifty plugin that does the trick (maybe someone knows a plugin I don't know of, as I've already tried the bbPress Latest Discussion plugin)

  2. Hardcode a forum-activity loop into the page-template file, using the is_front_page() function?

  3. Is there a forum-activity hook, that display the latest forum topics sitewide?

Thanks in advance
