Status of BBPress
-
Hello. I’m new and have a very basic general question. What’s the overall development status of BBPress? I don’t see much in the blog and I just wonder if this product is being actively developed.

Very interesting, thanks. Is there a list of sites running it anywhere? Or a gallery of themes/skins/styles/whatever-they’re-called-here?

@RegNatarajan The bbPress plugin for WordPress isn’t even in alpha stage yet. It’s not ready to be used on a live site. You’ll need to be a little patient and let the developers do their thing. When it’s released, I’m sure you’ll see lots of theme options appear, plus plugins for the plugin!
In the meantime, the standalone version is available, and with a little work, you can integrate that into WordPress. At some point, there will be an importer if you choose to use the bbPress plugin when it is finally released.

I get that totally. I’m not pressuring them. I’m a developer myself, and I fully understand it takes time. What I’m really looking for is to just understand where things are right now, without that coming across as pressure.
I get that WordPress integration isn’t so advanced right now, and that’s fine. I’d be looking to make it part of my WordPress site at http://www.esecuredata.com, but that doesn’t mean it has to share the same users or be a plugin. I could just link to it as a totally separate process with separate users, although I’d probably write a bit of custom integration code as we maintain our own user database.
I would love to see a few sites running BBPress so I can see what’s possible, and see what themes or styles are available right now. I find this forum extremely fast and easy to use, and am interested if it is running a widely available style/skin. Heck, I don’t even know if you call them styles or skins or themes or what, here. lol.

If you want to see others use the regular bbpress and not the upcoming (under development) bbpress plugin, take a look at this:
