We've got "Recent Forum Posts" in a sidebar on our CMS homepage (http://www.shannondale.org/) from some mod or other here. That won't work? I guess not from your description.
But if my own opinion counts, I think you may be agonizing for no reason. Your CMS isn't supposed to be a forum; at most it should only direct viewers there. Also remember many mobile users won't ever see it anyway - especially those using Tapatalk. Forumrunner, or readers like Google Currents.
The idea is to have some posts on the main page to get maximum visibility but doing this buy some other means then promoting to an article.
Is it your advice not to promote posts?

The widget was just an idea of how to accomplish this.
