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:

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.
