would need a link to a live example tohelp further
Hello Robin,
I created an open and public testforum for you:
Testforum
Can I somehow send you login credentials for a test user in a private message? I have opened the forum for guests without accounts, but apparently they cannot edit their posts anyway.
Thanks for your support!

ok, you say you have admin rights, but what forum role do you have ?
Participants are not by default allowed to delete or close.
Your theme (or another plugin) is only letting you see any admin links when you focus on the content. This is I am pretty sure preventing you clicking the link to edit.
yes your theme has a style sheet
wplms/assets/css/bbpress.min.css
which contains
#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-forums li.bbp-body .reply .bbp-reply-header .bbp-admin-links,
#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-forums li.bbp-body div.hentry .bbp-reply-header .bbp-admin-links,
#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-replies li.bbp-body .reply .bbp-reply-header .bbp-admin-links,
#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-replies li.bbp-body div.hentry .bbp-reply-header .bbp-admin-links,
#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-topics li.bbp-body .reply .bbp-reply-header .bbp-admin-links,
#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-topics li.bbp-body div.hentry .bbp-reply-header .bbp-admin-links {
position:absolute;
bottom:15px;
right:0
}
which moves the links, and makes them unclickable
if you change
bottom:15px;
to
bottom:1px ;
it works
so put this in the custom css are of your theme
#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-forums li.bbp-body .reply .bbp-reply-header .bbp-admin-links,
#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-forums li.bbp-body div.hentry .bbp-reply-header .bbp-admin-links,
#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-replies li.bbp-body .reply .bbp-reply-header .bbp-admin-links,
#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-replies li.bbp-body div.hentry .bbp-reply-header .bbp-admin-links,
#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-topics li.bbp-body .reply .bbp-reply-header .bbp-admin-links,
#bbpress-forums ul.bbp-topics li.bbp-body div.hentry .bbp-reply-header .bbp-admin-links {
bottom:1px !important;
}
then use this to allow participants to close or delete topics and delete replies
bbp style pack
once activated go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Topic/Reply Display
and look at items
17, 18 & 19
Hello Robin,
you rock! Thanks a lot for this great help. The issue is solved.
I will post your solution in the forum of the theme, so that the developers and other users can find it as well.
Have a great weekend,
Wiebke
great – glad you are fixed
Tell me please. Is there a regular bbpress setting to allow the user to delete their topics and posts? How it possible for user to edit their posts in the standard installation.
Reason: Not downloading another big plugin for such a simple feature,
even though this plugin is majestic and wonderful ))
Forum Settings -> Editing -> Allow users to edit their content for ___ minutes after posting.
(if checked, setting to “0 minutes” allows editing forever.)
Other than this, I am not aware of any possibility that users can delete their posts or topics.
About what speech.
Is it possible to insert something in the function.php and opens this feature? Del for user.
@neon67 – I wrote style pack because I had hundreds of code changes that did little bits and no way to control. So either it’s style pack, or you’ll need to start working out how the functions file in style pack does it – it’s around line 2356.
Robin W, we really appreciate your work. Thanks a lot for the plugin.
We will use it.
it has little overhead on load time for your site
