The user sinanisler reported that the New Topic button was missing on the top of the page in Discourse 3.3.0.beta1-dev, despite the New Conversation link being visible at the bottom. After testing with a new user and confirming it wasn’t a permission issue, Moin suggested the problem was related to themes, as enabling safe mode restored the button. sinanisler confirmed that disabling all installed themes resolved the issue, indicating a conflict with theme components. Jagster questioned whether the component was broken, to which sinanisler agreed that a conflict was likely, possibly due to testing multiple themes during setup.
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
Welcome to Meta! 
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.
yep deleting other themes fixed the problem
I installed and tested lots of themes and we realised that was the cause
thank you 
Are you saying new topic button is conflicting with many themes?
But that would mean the component is broken then, right?
probably
there was a conflict there for sure or this wouldn’t have happened
