At the bottom of a discussion, there is the Your Reply section.

We have 3 questions regarding this.
1) how do you get rid of that whole section....in our current implementation, normal users cannot reply....so logging will not help them.

2) In a case where normal users can reply, but users cannot create accounts. We need to both be able to:

2a) Remove the Register Here button because the redirect that is there goes to the login page that does not have a register section as we turned it off in the Joomla User Manager

2b) Or, redirect it to a different page with our custom registration form on it.

Please let me know if this is not clear.

Thanks,
Dom
Hello Dom,

Please replace the attached file in: ...\components\com_easydiscuss\themes\timeless\post.php and see how it goes.

Hello Dom,

You can remove all codes in this file to get rid of the whole reply section: ../components/com_easydiscuss/themes/simplistic/post.reply.form.php But I wonder how you want to reply to the discussion?

As for the registration link, you can redirect it to custom URL. Please replace the attached file in: ../components/com_easydiscuss/helpers/helper.php and open the file. In line 3798, you will see it returns an URL. Change it to your custom URL.

Hi Dom,

If I understand you correctly, you wish to remove this section as per your attached screenshot isn't?
Here I have attached to you 2 files, please download it and put it in your site here:
...\components\com_easydiscuss\themes\simplistic\post.php
...\components\com_easydiscuss\views\post\view.html.php

Please give this a try and see if this resolves your issue.

Thanks for your reply.
I already have been given a modified post.php file to remove the green reply button for people who are not authorized to to reply. I want to be sure that one fix does not overwrite the other.

I am using the timeless theme, so should I be changing the post.php in the timeless directory?

Hello Dom,

Yes, you should paste it in Timeless directory instead. However, may I know what is the changes you have made on your post.php? Or you can send us the modified post.php file.

Thank you for your reply.

I did not modify post.php, but was given a modified version based on another ticket. I am attaching it here.

Regards,
Dom
