Still have not recovered fully from the 5.5.1. upgrade into WP 4.0 Multisite (folders not subdomains)

When I go to Network Admin/Updates, there are no options to update Simple Press, even when the subsite knows it needs updating. When I click on the update link, it just takes me to the Network Admin/Updates page and there is nothing there to update...

I have manually upgraded to 5.5.2, and upgraded all the plugins and themes, but still quirky behaviour on some subsites, e.g.

• All except one subsite will not display the glyphs in the forum editor, although they display in the WP blog.
• One subsite that will display the list of forums, but clicking on any forum gives a 404, even though the forum permalink is OK. I can display the forum by setting "do not display group if there is only one forum", but if I click on the actual link to the forum, I still get a 404. I tried renaming the forum slug, but it made no difference.

Key question: I'm wondering if I can uninstall SP from one subsite without uninstalling it from the entire site. I got nervous as it said it would delete the entire database if I uninstalled it. Note that this is a folder-based multisite, not a subdomain based one. Does that make a big difference? I want to try uninstalling, then reinstalling the forum, but there is one subsite with heavy usage that is for some reason working fine, and I don't want to delete that! (Many of the other subsites have not started using it yet, so a reinstall is possible without loss of data there.)

If that is not a viable approach, do you have other suggestions?

Cheers,

Bruce
