So today I wanted to open new topic like I do every day on my forum but it wont open. I click on new topic, it brings me to forum page where topics are displayed but there is not option open to add new topic (no place that opens for title and first post of the topic).

Not only that, but I cant even make a reply. When I click on it nothing happens. Only thing I can do about it is to go on quote on some of the previous posts, clear everything in it, and make new post.

What could be the problem?

 

Also my tiny editor wont work. When I activate it that box in which you enter your post is not even clickable. You cant do anything in it.

here is the forum -> http://nbaknights.com/forum/

Thank you

Well i updated two plugins late in the evning yesterday, super rss reader and lightbox plus. the thing that I notice is that when I hover over some topic for example there is not that option to make some edits on it like change the title or move it.

no theme updates were made

You have a JavaScript conflict which is causing many errors (and not just with SP). Your WP theme, or another plugin, is not only force loading the jQuery library from the google CDN but is also loading a very old version (3.5) instead of the version that WP support and supplies which is 1.7.x.

This codex article explains what this means and what to look for:

This can normally be resolved but you will need to find which component is loading this jQuery and breaking the rules first.

Ah good. Well at least the culprit is found which useful.
We cross posted so you can read why the plugin was causing the problems in my previous post.

any thoughts why are there problems with tiny editor? is it because of the same reason you mentioned in post above?

Thank you

Well are you saying that the tinyMCE editor is not back working after the other problems are resolved? Have you tried emptying your browser cache perhaps?
