Hello

I have installed the forum plugin.

I do not want my site users to add forum topics, but I want them to reply to forum topics that I posted. When I uncheck the "create/edit" option, the "new topic" buttons goes away, but then I notice that the member can't reply to topics either. They can only reply to topics when I check the box, but then the "add new topic" button reappears. How can I fix this issue?

Can someone please help?

I would be so grateful for your help.

Thanks

Annalise

You need to check changelog files of the update pack.

Ross, is it possible to remove the 'add topic' button. So to "hide" it? Then maybe I can still add topics via the url to add topics like this maybe?

www.mysite.com//forum/addTopic

Will this work?

Regards

Annalise

Yes, you can hide via css.

apply this style in the theme customizer or base.css file

input.ow_ic_add.btn_add_topic { display: none;}
