bbPortal 1.2 is almost done. I just need to fix a couple of small bugs and then it's ready for download. There are some significant changes in this new release. bbPortal will have it's own admin area, will use the bbMenu plugin and will be compatible with the latest bbPress version.
I proberbly update this forum/site to the latest bbPress version within a few days and then upload and release the bbPortal plugin.
Stay tuned!
