Comment (by spencerp):

 Yes, I agree with filosofo. (No offense of course!) This was just one of
 the issues folks including me were having when running UTW and bbPress
 together before sigh.

 Reference links about it:
 http://www.neato.co.nz/archives/2007/02/04/ultimate-tag-warrior-314159265/
 "The thing where bbPress and UTW wouldn’t play nice because UTW had a
 is_tag function, and bbPress had one too. [If UTW sees that the is_tag
 function already exists, it isn’t declared; and there’s a is_utwtag
 function that bbPress users can use instead. Yeah.]"

 I posted this comment on her blog previous to that UTW version even:

 Hi Christine,

 Would it be possible to fix the compatibility issue between bbPress and
 UTW? Here’s a [http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/78?replies=5#post-2374
 link] to the thread at the bbPress support forums.

 Quoted traveljunky’s post:
 “this bug is caused by the function is_tag(), which both utw and bbpress
 use, so what i just did right now was search through the utw-plugin-folder
 with dreamweaver for that tag, found it three times and changed it to
 is_utwtag(). no idea if i can just do that without problems appearing
 later but for now it seems to work.”

 Through the file(s) changing this: is_tag() to: is_utwtag() seems to help
 those running bbPress and WordPress running the UTW plugin. I was just was
 wondering.. ;):)

 Here's the bbPress post about it as well:
