Hello! I wonder if there is a way to prevent people from replying without signing in. The problem is, when people use this option, their comment goes to moderation which frustrates them.
I have checked the settings for "guests" and the permission to reply to topics in not clicked.
Thanks!
@eel,
wpForo forums have permission settings in Edit Forum screen. Edit the forum and use these settings to control Usergroup accesses and privileges in that forum. Each Usergroup has some Forum Access set in each forum. For example, The Registered Usergroup ( Subscriber User Role) has Standard Forum Access by default in all forums.
For example, if you don't want users with Registered Usergroup to open new topics in some forum, you should edit that forum and set Read Only forum access to the Registered usergroup that forum. Then navigate to Dashboard > Forums > Dashboard and click on [Delete all caches] button.

Please attentively read this FAQ: https://wpforo.com/community/faq/wordpress-user-roles-wpforo-usergroups-and-forum-accesses/
This is resolved. Thanks for the help!
