Description
when NOT being logged-in:
clicking the link "Post Reply" (within the Forum) does not do anything.
Solution:
it should forward to a "Registration"-page or to a "Sign-in"-page.
Currently, people are confused, because they are clicking on this "Post Reply"-link but nothing is happening.
Please see screenshot attached.

Accidentally attached this patch to 1140.
Quick fix for 1.1.1, but maybe needs a function with a redirect to register andor/login page later on?

I do not see the fix at
www.testbp.org
Is this website not updated yet ?
Thanks !

Please don't reopen closed tickets unless, in this case, the patch doesn't work. I believe testbp.org to update every so often and as such isn't a good way to confirm if this fix works as you expected it to; you need to test on your own install if you want to check.
sorry, Iam just trying to help and report bugs.
Updating testbp.org is the best way to test BP-software independently and check for bugs.
This is fixed, please leave a couple of hours before checking testbp.org to make sure it has been updated.

when not being logged-in:
having the "Post Reply"-link and the "Post New"-link within the Forums (when not being logged-in) was a very nice and logic feature. Why did you delete those links ?
Clicking on "Post Reply" or "Post New" and then being forwarded to the "Registration"-page" or "Sign-in"-page would eliminate a lot of confusion for new users.

same issue for "Post New"-link within the Forum.
At least, the people should get a message saying "Please register" or "Please "Sign-in".
