    Hello, can someone recommend a good, stable and lightweight forum plugin that is compatible with Genesis?

    I was thinking of installing BBPress but someone told me that just BBPress alone will not work, I will also need to add an additional plugin that makes BBPress compatible with Genesis.

    Wonder if there are other options besides BB Press that is lightweight and stable on a Genesis platform.

    Many thanks ..

    You don't need an additional plugin BBPress works fine with Genesis

    Thanks Neil. I did a search and according to this link I will also need to install "bbPress Genesis Extend plugin" in order to make BB Press work on Genesis, is this not the case anymore?

    Hi,
    Apologies, yes you are right - just checked a couple of sites I have used BBPress and they have that plugin installed - but I wouldn't let that deter you.

    (it was BuddyPress I was thinking that doesnt need the compatability plugin anymore)
