To have the component pull in content from the board in which it's shown, you can use the "coreNode" custom context object to determine the id of the board.

http://lithosphere.lithium.com/t5/Developers-Knowledge-Base/Context-objects-for-custom-components-coreNode/ta-p/9319

 

The exact method you'll want is "id". You can then plug this into the URL for your REST API request using freemarker:

${coreNode.id}

After you've got the code all set of the component, you'll then want to place it on the forums. You can do this via the "Forum Page" page in Studio.
