Hi bullyvince,

you can't add a new topic because you can't enter in any forum. When I click on a forum link it refresh and doesn't go to forum page. This problem comes from your home page configuration. Please make sure you did correctly all steps described here: https://wpforo.com/community/faq/how-to-load-forum-on-home-page/

Also make sure "Turn WordPress to wpForo" option is disabled in Dashboard > Forums > Settings admin page:

In case you want to say thank you !)
We'd really appreciate and be thankful if you leave a good review on plugin page. This is the best way to say thank you to this project and support team.

Problem is fixed. We just logged in and configured all. It works now, you can check it.

Please don't set the Forum page as a home page. You should create a new Home Page, then put [wpforo] shortcode in this page and save. Then this page should be set as Front Page in Dashboard > Settings > Reading admin page:

Now you have two forum pages. First is the original Forum (/community/) page, second is the Home Page (home-page) which is set as Front Page. Please don't delete any of these pages.
