Hi @doktorek,

Sorry for the late response.

If you have something important to say on the front page, you can use the "Admin Note".

The option is located in the Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Misk admin page.

Also, I'll suggest you check the wpForo – Topics Custom Fields addon. The add-on allows you to add and manage custom fields in your forum topics.

More info here: https://gvectors.com/product/wpforo-topic-custom-fields/

I don't want admin announcement. I just want to add a special note on usage on links and images. People are dumb and we have to put things in their face. I don't want any extra fields.  What file edits those 2 places?

@doktorek,

What file edits those 2 places?

We're really sorry but there is no way to do it via editing file.

However, I'll just ask developers if they can provide any other solution for you. Please wait a bit. I'll update the topic once I get some news for you.

@doktorek,

Please use the following hook:

add_filter('wpforo_reply_form_head', function($t){
$t .= "
" . 'You text here.';
return $t;
});
add_action('wpforo_reply_form_extra_after', function (){
echo "
" . 'You text here.';
});

Please bote the red marked text can be changed.

The hook should be added in the current active theme functions.php file.

Hi.Thanks. 

1st. This is for reply box only. What about NEW TOPIC box?

2nd. Also, 1st line you gave me puts it in LARGE CAPS next to  "Leave a REPLY"  text.  I want it below the topic box. Or maybe above attachment box.   Is that possible?

@doktorek,

We are sorry, but we can't provide other solutions. The above-mentioned method is the final option that we can provide.
