   I'm looking for a plugin that will allow me to display the last 5 or so posts in a designated forum on another page outside of the BBPress/WP installation.

   Something similar to thisL

   http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bbpress-latest-discussion-for-wp/

   Any suggestions?

   Couldn't you just take the latest posts RSS feed and use that in your other page?

   Use this in header :
   

   <?php
   	// URL location of your feed
   	$feedUrl = "http://feeds2.feedburner.com/ashfameblog?format=xml";
   // Replace the above URL with yours
   	$feedContent = "";
   
   	// Fetch feed from URL
   	$curl = curl_init();
   	curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, $feedUrl);
   	curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 3);
   	curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true);
   	curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
   	curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HEADER, false);
   
   	// FeedBurner requires a proper USER-AGENT...
   	curl_setopt($curl, CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_1, true);
   	curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_ENCODING, "gzip, deflate");
   	curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.3) Gecko/2008092417 Firefox/3.0.3");
   
   	$feedContent = curl_exec($curl);
   	curl_close($curl);
   ?>

   Use this to show :
   

   <?php
   				$count=0;
   				// Did we get feed content?
   				if($feedContent && !empty($feedContent))
   				{
   					$feedXml = @simplexml_load_string($feedContent);
   					if($feedXml)
   					{
   				?>
   				<ul>
   				<?php foreach($feedXml->channel->item as $item): if($count==6) { break; } ?>
   					<li><a href="<?php echo $item->link; ?>"><?php echo $item->title; ?></a></li>
   				<?php $count++; endforeach; ?>
   				</ul>
   				<?php }} ?>
