Support Forum
I have chosen Simple-Press as my forum script on a site i'm developing. I would also like to buy membership because there plugins and customization tips i need. I'm currently testing Simple-Press. Everything works well except for links and buttons not working when a user is logged-in through IE. When logged-out the links and buttons works, they only don't work when logged and the browser happens to be IE. I'm testing with Win 8.1 PC running IE 11. Other browser are fine.
Just out of interest which version of SP are you running?
There is an odd (sometimes reported, but not by everybody) issue with the combination of Win 8.1 and IE 11. Not Win 7 and IE 11, or any other browser. It's not so much that our tooltips malfunction, but something is definitely not right and I believe we are currently trying to find a way of pleasing all browsers and setups. But this is causing your problem.
The only way to get around the problem currently is to disable tooltips which can be done through the spFunctions.php file in your theme.
define('SP_TOOLTIPS', true);
Needs to be changed to false.
I believe actually the issue is with Windows 8.0. As far as I aware they have fixed it in 8.1

Andy is correct... as of now, we dont know of any issue with the IE 11 and Win 8.1...

I (and my site's members) are having the issue right now. I am on Windows 8.1, Internet Explorer 11, and Simple Press 5.5.0.1, and Wordpress 3.9.2
When logged in and using IE, we can't click on buttons in Simple Press
there are two or three similar reports, but the vast majority of IE users (win 8.1 and IE 11) have no issue... so could be other plugin or add on...
but its always been resolved by disabling the pretty permalinks in simple press....

we've had a variety of IE related squawks from our users with the latest versions of everything installed at our site.
setting IE to Compatibility Mode seems to help although we haven't narrowed it down to exactly which IE versions on which Windows versions are the most susceptible to having issues.
also be sure to factor in your wp theme, other wp plugins and any IE addons...
We routinely test core and all our sp themes and plugins with IE 10 and 11 for each release... with win 7 and win 8.1...

I was still having the problem with forum buttons doing nothing, even with the latest version of everything. I followed these instructions and it is fixed. thank You
