I made a thread private but can't set it back to the public. Clicking on the crossed-eye icon is supposed to but it didn't work.

Hi @itlr,

Just click on the button. That's it. You can refresh it to update the title and remove the [Private] prefix like this:

wpForo set a topic public

Thanks, but I don't see that icon below the private thread. I am talking about wpDiscuz Private Comment.

That because your usergroup doesn't have permission to set private/public other user topics. Just go to Dashboard > Forums > Forum Accesses Admin page, edit your Usergroup Access and enable these two permissions:

  • Can set topic private
  • Can set own topic private

 

Then navigate to Dashboard > Forums > Dashboard and click on [Delete all caches] button.

Dude, I was talking about wpDiscuz Private Comment Addon, NOT related to your forum plugin.

I hope this can make it clearer.

I was talking about this addon: https://gvectors.com/product/wpdiscuz-private-comments/

In Chrome console, I see 

Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (): customcookie.js:1  /wp-content/plugins/wpdiscuz/assets/third-party/wpdcookiejs/customcookie.js?ver=5.3.5

Ok, if you have some cache plugin, or some JS/CSS Optimizer plugin, please disable those, purge all type of caches, press Ctrl+F5 on front-end and test it. Then leave some URL to allow us debug other issues.
