Hi,

Im working on building the site, but some how I seem to have turned off the "Add Topic".

Can anyone tell me how to turn it on, or why its missing now?

Here is the site https://wikitrafficticket.com/community/

Hi @connor,

Please navigate to Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Forum Accesses Tab, edit each forum Access, and enable/check the "Can create topic" option.

@connor,

Please change the usergroup of the user with support username to admin and let us know. We'll check the issue.

@connor,

We need admin accesses to check the issue. Not necessary to change the name. Just change the usergroup to allow us to check the issue. 

 just navigate to Dashboard > Forums > Members admin page, find the account we've created, click on "edit profile" link and change the Usergroup.

@connor,

The issue is solved. Please press CTRL+F5 on the frontend and check it. 

It was a CSS conflict with the active theme. Somehow it adds {display:none} CSS role for all buttons. See the screenshot below.

We've simply added the CSS code below in the "Custom CSS Code" located in the Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Style Tab:

#wpforo #wpforo-wrap .wpf-button {
    display: block !important;
}
#wpforo #wpforo-wrap .wpf-head-bar-right{
    width: auto !important;
}
