almost all settings are default. created new user to check if problem is permission issue but it is not. we can see/click the bottom new conversation link but the new topic button doesn’t exist on top for anyone and any role. where do we enable this new topic button is this a bug? we are on the latest version 3.3.0.beta1-dev [image]

Welcome to Meta! :discourse2: I can access the “New Topic” button while in safe mode. Disabling the themes and theme components causes the button to appear, indicating an issue with them. [The image shows a web forum interface with a notification that safe mode is enabled and options to view various post categories such as "Latest," "Top," "Hot," "New," and "Unread." (Captioned by AI)]

yep deleting other themes fixed the problem I installed and tested lots of themes and we realised that was the cause thank you :slight_smile:

Are you saying new topic button is conflicting with many themes?

yep that was the case clearing themes fixed the problem don’t ask me which themes don’t even remember now :rofl: when we first installed the discourse I installed lots of themes to just see and test them from here [image]

But that would mean the component is broken then, right?
