I just went to post something in my forum and other than logging in nothing else seems to work. all of the button look like they activate but nothing happens. Any ideas?

It appears to work sometimes just extremely slow. Maybe since the last update?

any caching plugins?

if not, sounds like a js conflict... see: http://codex.simple-press.com/.....-conflict/

do you have a link to your site? we can help look for obvious conflicts, but that link will get you pointed in the right direction...

Mr. Papa

Could it have anything to do with the fact that I just upgraded to windows 8? Will that cause issues?

windows 8 is not known to cause any problems...

but I am not seeing anything wrong... what buttons dont work? everyone I tried worked... which browser?

that said, there could be some issues because of that link I gave you... this is getting loaded:

incorrectly by your wp theme or another wp plugin... it violates the wp best practices in that its loading an external copy of jquery instead of the jquery that comes with wp - a recipe for problems...

if you can find the misbehaving theme or plugin and where its loading that, we can help correct it...

but still, what I tried worked fine...

It appears to be explorer 10. I just switched over to firefox and all was well. However I have noticed another problem with the post as plugin. It doesn't seem to show up in the forum anymore?

Anything we can try with IE10 or should I just use Firefox?

IE 10 works for me... no problems... but I am on Win 7... shouldnt matter and we have other IE 10 / Win 8 users...

Are you using IE 10 and Win 8 while visiting and using our support site? Any issues here? If not, then you may have other issues - note the jquery issue I already pointed out... that will be a problem especially since the incorrectly loaded jquery is much older than the wp version...

Thanks

Yes at one point I was on your site with W8 & IE10 so I guess something else is wrong. I have no idea what your talking about with jquery etc. but its working with Firefox so I'll go that route.

Any idea about the Post As plugin not showing up on the forum? Not a big deal but handy sometimes.

perhaps we best start by asking what you are expecting to see with the 'post as' plugin...?

I used to have a button that let me post for another user. but I can't find it now. It used to be located down by the submit post button. It still shows as an active plug in. Bruce
