bbPress.org

As per the title, I need to exclude specific forums from my Recent Topics widget. Or, as I only have 6 forums total, I could just as easily do with specifying the forums that I want to include.

Any thoughts on what I’d need to do to do this? Should I override the class for the existing widget to make my own custom widget that does this? Any tips for how I’d do so? I’m using a child theme, and don’t want to edit the core bbpress files.

Thanks in advance.
