Today we tagged bbPress 2.3 beta 1 in the WordPress.org plugin repository. This means we think 2.3 ready to release into the wild, but want to get a few extra eyes on things first. It represents the 4th major iteration of bbPress as a plugin for your self-hosted WordPress powered website, and we’re excited about how far we’ve come.
Even though bbPress 2.3 is developer tested, we don’t recommend you run it on a production site quite yet. Instead, set up a test site or a local installation to play with. If you find a bug, patch it or let us know.
We are aiming to release bbPress 2.3 in the first week of February. Now’s the time to report some feedback!
If you think you found a bug, please report it on the bbPress Core Trac. If you find a security vulnerability, please be discrete and let us know privately using one of the methods posted on the WordPress contact page.
I am noticing with bbPress 2.3 my single forum shortcode [bbp-single-forum id=77] is now displaying the full forum list along with the single forum. Definitely makes my pages longer.
I’m not seeing this, can you provide more details in a ticket on trac https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/
Soooooo, what’s new?

any chance of seeing something like a release note? even just some kind of list of commits between 2.2.4 and 2.3?
Links to bbPress’s trac are abundant. If someone isn’t aware of where it is or how to find it, it’s likely they’re not the audience for the beta test.
That said, the link below is a good place to start:

This beta repairs the broken display of numbers in ordered lists and bullets in unordered lists with Theme Atahualpa

I already have a WordPress installed at my website http://www.a100websolutions.in root directory. Will I be able to install a version of bbPress in a subfolder ?
Thanks in advance
You’ll install bbPress just like any other plugin, in wp-content/plugins/bbpress.
