Is there a way that I can display the latest content on the forum, and limit the characters if they are too long?
On which part of the forum?

This will do just that, also with the time. Edit where necessary.
You need php in templates too, http://mybbhacks.zingaburga.com/showthread.php?tid=464
I guess this is what you meant.

Will this work outside the forum? Im wanting to display the latest threads outside the forum on the home page of my fansite.
When using what you said in your post I got this error message

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare get_attachment_icon() (previously declared in /home/username/public/admin/wp-includes/deprecated.php:1966) in /home/username/public/forum/inc/functions.php on line 3053
