I use it on VOodooPress, a single install. Works great, lightweight, simple, and full integartion with WP.

I’ve used before. Has a lot more built in ‘forum features’, but I prefer simplicity, so I switched over
Both work(ed) great for me
Thanks for the quick response Voodoo!
I maybe thick here in thinking, but doesn’t bbpress require its own install? Or can this be linked to my current WP install?

bbPress pre 1.x was a sep install
If you look in the plugins directory, it is now 2.x. When 2.0 came out, it became a plugin. Just install like a normal plugin, and good to go!
Also, bbPress plugins pon the website bbPress.org are for the stand alone 1.x version
bbPress plugins found here in the plugin directory are (should) be compatible with the 2.x version
Gotcha!
Are you still using the forum? Do you have a link so I can see it in action?
voodoopress.com/forums/
Here we are. That’s 100% un customized, I haven’t had time to work on any theming yet
wpcandy.com uses it as well for their forums
Works a treat!
Thanks again for sharing Voodoo.

Ooops misleading reply there mate!
The site you shown me works a treat, I am yet to install and start down the forum journey.
Great and timely advice very much appreciated all the same.

coolio! bbpress.org has a fairly active support forum of their own, should you have detailed questions about the plugin
