Hi,

How can I go about adding a close topic button/link within the topic itself for the original poster to have the option to close it please?,top

I have removed the bottom two drop down options you see!

Regards,

Gareth

Hi!

bbP has bbp_get_topic_close_link function (defined in bbpress/includes/topics/template.php file) that outputs an anchor tag (<a>). However customizing the anchor tag proved difficult so we ended up using a bit of custom code to output the link:

	<?php if( is_singular( 'topic' ) && current_user_can( 'moderate' ) ) : ?>
		<div class="post-note">
			<?php
			$topic = bbp_get_topic( bbp_get_topic_id() );
			if( bbp_is_topic_open( $topic->ID ) ) {
				$uri     = add_query_arg( array( 'action' => 'bbp_toggle_topic_close', 'topic_id' => $topic->ID ) );
				$uri     = wp_nonce_url( $uri, 'close-topic_' . $topic->ID );
				echo '<a href="' . esc_url( $uri ) . '" class="bbp-topic-close-link button green">Close Thread</a>';
			}
			?>
		</div>
	<?php endif; ?>
