Hi there, I’m using [Sam's Simple Theme](https://meta.discourse.org/t/sams-simple-theme/23552) but it doesn’t enable bulk selection. More precisely, the selection boxes appear but not the actions menu.

When I revert to the default Discourse theme it works as expected.

I tried adding a theme component with the CSS that I could find for the bulk selection, but it makes no difference.

```css
.topic-list .topic-list-data.bulk-select {
  padding: 0;
  width: 30px;
}
.bulk-select-topics {
  display: inline-flex;
}

```

Is there any way I could add in this functionality? Thanks a lot.
