Well – you have two problems that could do with fixing. When fixed there may be other things but these are unknown now until the first ones are dealt with. So…
Something – probably do do with the theme – is running some sort of non-standard tooltips code that is fighting with the WP supported jQuery Tooltips that the forum uses. Go to your theme (I see it is a child theme) and open the spFunctions.php file in the /templates folder. At the top is the option to turn the ‘fancy’ tooltips off. Change the true to false and save. Clear your browser cache and see what happens.
Something – either theme or plugin – is also loading the BootStrap script library. Again this is not supported by WP and tends to fight with the properly supported jQuery UI library. This is most noticeable in the SP file uploader plugin where the ‘add files’ button ceases to work.
IF you have this problem then the key to this is ensuring the BootStrap loads BEFORE jQuery UI. The WPEngine folks may be able to help or advise on doing this as I see you are loading these scripts from their repository.
