    Hey All,

    We need some urgent help,

    We have groups on our learning platform, and we would like TOPIC CREATIONS to be closed for members.

    We want to close topic creations. as we want members to only reply back to to TOPICS ALREADY CREATED by us.

    This is with Groups and not BBPress Forums, Please help we are stuck on this, is their any css that will stop this, please see.

    forum.php of your theme file in child theme which u are using and remove

    <?php post_form(); ?>

    also edit, in both forum.php and front-page.php

    <th><?php _e(‘Topic’); ?> — <?php bb_new_topic_link(); ?></th>

    to become

    <th><?php _e(‘Topic’); ?></th>

    You mention you want to close topic creations, but you are not using bbPress forums. Can you post a screenshot of what you are referring to? Are you talking about the activity post form?

    @sharmavishal what @magicvish said but instead of removing you could check groups_is_user_admin() and show form if true.

    @sharmavishal I hear you. @magicvish If you can’t work this out (we’ve given you some good help) you should probably pay someone who can.
