Hello !

First, I apologize if my english is not good.

I allowed participants to create their own topics but I don’t know how to give them the permission to delete their own topics and messages. I don’t want to trash their topics, I want to delete them permanently.

Can you help me please ?

Thanks !

Assuming BBPress. You need to give your default user role the permission of deleting topics.

bbPress User Roles and Capabilities

something like :

add_action(‘admin_init’,function(){
// gets the author role
$role = get_role( ‘subscriber’ );
$role->add_cap( ‘delete_topics’ );

});

add it once in your plugin or theme then reload the wp admin screen page and then remove this cpde. Check if it has worked.
