[riddle]

I’m a little confused. The word “portal” is such an overloaded term that I’m having trouble seeing what bbPortal *does*.

Does it simply add a distinct front page to a bbPress install? Can it be used to supplement bbPress with freestanding pages under separate tabs? Or something else entirely?

I’ve looked back at other bbPortal posts, gone to bbportal.org, etc. and still don’t quite get it. Thanks for any light you can shed.
