I would like to know how to start a custom bbPress loop to display the recent 5 posts of a certain forum (say Forum Test 1).

In WordPress I create custom loops like this:

`<?php $custom_posts = new WP_Query(); ?>

<?php $custom_posts->query(‘post_type=bbp_topic&posts_per_page=5’); ?>

<?php while ($custom_posts->have_posts()) : $custom_posts->the_post(); ?>

<div class=”block-2 border-top”>

<h2><a href=”<?php the_permalink(); ?>” title=”<?php printf( esc_attr__( ‘Permalink to %s’, ‘twentyten’ ), the_title_attribute( ‘echo=0’ ) ); ?>” rel=”bookmark”><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>

<?php the_excerpt(); ?>

<p><?php comments_number(‘0 Replies’,’1 Reply’,’% Replies’); ?>.</p>

</div>

<?php endwhile; ?>`

How to do what I mentioned above in bbPress 1.1?
