I'm sorry, but there is not an easy solution I can share here.

@asti that worked perfect.

Do you think it's possible to have the reply visible only to the original poster? For example, to have the link that's sent to their email say something like url/#comment-123&logged=1 , where the logged parameter lets them see the reply?

Thanks

Wow, thank you so much for your fast and solving response. I've added the CSS, it works, and it would be great if when the users click the "Show reply" instead of showing nothing, to show some text like "The replies can only be seen be members".

I'd suggest you use this CSS code:

#wpdcom.wpdiscuz_unauth .wpd-reply >.wpd-comment-wrap {display:none;}
#wpdcom.wpdiscuz_unauth .wpd_comment_level-2.odd:before {
    content: 'Please login to see the replies';
    display: flex;
    justify-content: center;
}

In this case, the previous CSS code should be removed.

Or is it possible to show the reply only to the original poster, even if they're guests?

Hi,

You can use the CSS code like this:

#wpdcom.wpdiscuz_unauth .wpd-reply {display:none;}

Insert the code in the "Custom CSS code" textarea, located in the Dashboard > wpDiscuz > Settings > Styles & Colors admin page.

Don't forget to delete the caches before checking.

Or js code:

jQuery(document).ready(function(){
     jQuery('#wpdcom.wpdiscuz_unauth .wpd-reply').remove();
});

Hello, can you please tell me if there is an option to show the replies only to logged in members? Basically, I want to hide the comment replies from guests, thank you.
