Template overrides
Do not edit template files inside the plugin if you want your changes to survive plugin updates.
Copy a template from:
/wp-content/plugins/nexaboard-discussion-forum-community/templates/
to the corresponding path in your theme or child theme:
/wp-content/themes/your-theme/nexaboard/
Example:
templates/forum/topic.php
becomes:
/wp-content/themes/your-theme/nexaboard/forum/topic.php<h3>Forum icons</h3>
The default read/unread forum icons are stored in:
/wp-content/plugins/nexaboard-discussion-forum-community/assets/images/
forum-read.svgforum-unread.svg
Privacy and security
NexaBoard validates state-changing browser requests with WordPress nonces and applies capability/authorization checks where an action is restricted. User-supplied values are validated or sanitized before use. Email-verification links use expiring, one-time verification tokens rather than logged-in WordPress nonces.
Site administrators remain responsible for configuring WordPress user access, backups, email delivery and server upload limits appropriately for their site.
Extensions
Optional NexaBoard extensions are installed as separate WordPress plugins. NexaBoard core does not write extension PHP code into its own plugin directory and does not require a paid license to use the features included in core.
