Hi all 🙂  
I was wondering how can I add a call method when clicking on the ‘reply’ button in some topic? I want to add some message to pop-up if some conditions are true.  
Thank you.

I think `api.onAppEvent("page:compose-reply", callback)` should work

Thanks! It works indeed. 👍  
Couldn’ find the event for creating a new topic though.

Find the `create-topic-button` template and Class you may discove something, also [Installing the Inspector - Ember Inspector - Ember Guides](https://guides.emberjs.com/release/ember-inspector/installation/) can help you resolve something like that.
