NO, not bothered at all, was just saying that I didn’t understand what you were asking is all.

If I understand you basically want to take the code from the topics widget and use it as a standalone loop instead of a widget?

Keep in mind I’m not a great coder: If it were me, I would simply copy the code from the bbp-core-widget.php file that I needed for the topics widget. I would then strip out the widget portion of the code and hard code in the default arguments.

This basically would give me the same loop used by the widget.

// Query defaults

$topics_query = array(

'author'         => 0,

'post_parent'    => any,

'posts_per_page' => 10,

'show_stickies'  => false,

'order'          => 'DESC',

);

Probably better ways out there, but that’s how I would try it
