I’m working to set up my first bbPress (and first WP) site using the TwentyTen theme. I’m using WP 4.3.2 and bbPress 2.5.8. I want to hide the “Create New Topic” on a Forum’s page behind a link to discourage people from starting a new topic without looking at the ones that are already there.

I’ve got some php and html experience but have been beating my head against the code without solving this and and am running into a deadline. I’ll be very grateful for any help you can give me on this.

Hi,
Create a bbpress folder inside your theme (https://codex.bbpress.org/themes/theme-compatibility/getting-started-in-modifying-the-main-bbpress-template/)

You probably need to copy content-single-forum.php into your bbpress folder, then you can delete any instance that says <?php bbp_get_template_part( 'form', 'topic' ); ?>

That should do it.
Pascal.

Thanks, Pascal! It worked like a charm.
