The forum toolbox icon should appear when you hover the mouse cursor over one of the topic rows. Are you not seeing this and/or are you clicking on it with no response?

Either would suggest a javascript conflict/error as the most common cause – usually fixable.

Yep, nothing happens when I hover.

 

have you any suggestions for resolving the conflict?

Can I have a link to your forum page – just so I can check the scripts being loaded?

It is our old friend – http://codex.simple-press.com/codex/faq/troubleshooting/what-is-this-jquery-conflict/

Your theme – or it might be woocommerce – is loading jQuery from the google CDN. To make things worse, ‘woocommerce’ is also loading the jQuery UI from a version it is supplying.

So there is disregard for using the proper Wp supported versions – nor is the WP API being used to ensure the right ones and only one are being loaded.

woocommerce is also throwing a script error that may cause problems.

Cheers. I’ll disable it. I suppose I could change it some way later.

 

Thanks again

Much appreciated. Removed that call, was totally unnecessary. reactivated woocommerce and everything is fine.

Wow – that is good news. I was expecting this one to go backwards and forwards a little longer!
