I see the editor opens up and I just made a post as a guest and it saved and went into moderation.

What exact issue are you having or is it a certain membership level that doesn’t post?

You have a JavaScript conflict – your wp theme or another plugin – which needs to be fixed. This codex article explains what this means and what to look for:

http://codex.simple-press.com/codex/faq/troubleshooting/what-is-this-jquery-conflict/

It is probably the theme you are using – force-loading jQuery from Google and using an old version no longer supported by WP. If you can locate where it is being loaded we can usually help to fix it up.

Hello,

One of my readers had the same problem. He wrote, that javascript doesn’t work, because it calls a function, which doesn’t exist. Then the “Add topic button” cannot work.

He added a drop down menu in “Appearance -> Menu”. You can see the screen capture here. Then he created a menu without entry, and selected it. So the forum can work with his theme.

Lise, not sure I follow… are you having an issue?  or offering a hint for others?

It is  a solution, that one of my readers found to use SP with its own theme. So, more a hint than an issue ;-)
