Re: GEO targetted forum and bbPress stability
Sure, it’s possible with bbPress.
If you are set on modifying the bbPress core, then what I would do is download two exact copies of bbPress. Use one, then save one. You can always compare your current version to the pristine one you never touched, in the event you need to upgrade and you need to recreate your changes in the updated files.
I would say the 0.9.0.2 is pretty stable, for sure. The Alpha releases are less stable, but I haven’t had any problems with them either. I installed an old, old alpha version about 18 months ago and am still using it, but YMMV.
Maybe someone else can recommend a specific version or revision as a starting point for your project. Good luck.
