On the user profile page, when this theme is active, clicking "comment" does not bring down a box to reply.

This is my test site! https://cuongvm.net/vanilla/profile/admin
You can test with user/password: test/123456

Besides, this theme also have an issue with the menu. When you add more menu text ( 3 or 4), the nav will be broken.

I would try another theme.. or write the author for help. The comment box shows fine I don't see the problem.

Make sure you have the correct permissions. Try another theme to see if that gets fixed. If not , disable plugins until you find the cause.

Oh no, I tried disable all the plugins but it's not any affect.

sorry this is happening to you because of a bad theme... All I can advice is to use a better theme that is compatible with 2.3.1 instead of the theme you are using which seems to be incompatible and the author does not give a shit to help you..

My forum was fine using this theme with latest Vanilla.
Would you send a link test to check?

It's a either a js or a css problem. Check the JacaScript console to find out which of both

Found the issue, sharing my quick fix for the benefit of the community.

/themes/Gopi/design/style.css

Culprit is this -

I'm not sure though if this css class ".Hidden" being used elsewhere (it has the "!important")

For now, I'm gambling to remove it and replace it with the quick patch below.

modify your style.css

1) remove the !important from the .Hidden

2) add the others below

/** Fix for Actvity Comment - start **/
.Hidden {
   display: none;
}

.ItemContent.ActivityComments {
   margin: 0 0 0 45px;
}
.Activities ul.DataList {
   margin-left: 45px;
}
li.CommentForm form.Hidden > div {
   display: inline-block;
}
.DataList.ActivityComments li.CommentForm form.Hidden .TextBoxWrapper textarea.TextBox{
   width: 100%;
}
/** Fix for Actvity Comment  - end **/

it's the css display value locking the comment in hidden state. apply the fix above and it should be fine. see it in action here https://bit.ly/2LJNV1k
