Hey Vivianny,
Kindly please find the response to your inquiries below:
1 - I would like the forum page to have a title. Enabling show page heading in the menu item is not working. How can I do this?
Currently the title in EasyDiscuss are added internally and it isn't actually using the page heading from the menu. You can set the title from the Settings of EasyDiscuss
2 - Is it possible to change the registration link located in the padlock popup to a custom link?
You can modify the theme file to alter this. All you need to do is to edit the file /components/com_easydiscuss/themes/simplistic/toolbar.php and locate the block of codes below,
<a tabindex="105" class="pull-right" href="<?php echo DiscussHelper::getRegistrationLink();?>"><?php echo JText::_( 'COM_EASYDISCUSS_REGISTER' );?></a>
Replace the block below with your desired link,
<?php echo DiscussHelper::getRegistrationLink();?>
3 - how do I create moderators?
Moderators are assigned on the category tier. Click on the category to edit them, then click on the "Permissions" tab.
4 - how do I set roles?
Roles are actually not "ACLs" they are merely used as "labels" for your users. You can create roles in EasyDiscuss and assign them to user groups in Joomla.
