I have clicked the appropriate boxes to allow uploads and custom signature.  

For some reason, when a member clicks on profile, it redirects to the subfolder: Forum/profile.  But the page looks exactly the same.  No pop up window for the profile.  Just exactly the same as the forum.

 

I am in the begining stages of development with the forum.  Just got Janrain installed for 3rd party rpx.  

Please Help

there wont be a popup... it loads like another forum page, but the content in the body part will be a bunch of profile forms with tabs and menus...  and the url of .../forum/profile is correct too...

do you have a link?  might be js conflict... no caching plugins right?

with w3tc, EVERY cache type you are using, you must tell it to ignore the wp page the forum is on... we generate each paqe dynamically with internal caching... so the wp cache plugins cause problems because they think its a single page (after all, it is all displayed on a single wp page)...

you have the right idea for the ignore... but you just need the slug of the wp page you are using... by default, it would be /forum/...  but on ours, it would be /support-forum/

but remember, its for EACH type of caching.. ie page, db, etc...

only the display of profile 'may' be in popup if you set the options that way...  a user editing their profile will always be on a standard page and never in a popup...  and the page will on forum/profile...  with some menus and tabs...

Maybe the problem is a setting now.  I have member settings to standard access.  

do i need to add tabs somehow to allow the user to edit signature, avatar, etc?

no. please upload a screenshot of what you see on the profile page, ie /forum/profile

I obviously cannot see a profile page on your site, but I do get some errors:

Warning: you have included the Google Maps API multiple times on this page. This may cause unexpected errors.

which may be part of the issue... and each call has different options... its this twice:

it may be causing js/jquery issues on your site..

<script type='text/javascript' src='http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=true&ver=3.3.2'></script>
<script type='text/javascript' src='http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false&ver=3.3.2'></script>

it also appears you are still serving cached pages which could also cause problems:

<!-- Performance optimized by W3 Total Cache. Learn more: http://www.w3-edge.com/wordpre.....s-plugins/

Minified using disk: basic (Request URI is rejected)
Page Caching using disk: enhanced
Database Caching using disk: basic
Object Caching 3247/3250 objects using disk: basic

it appears to be not using minified caching based on url, which is good, but not sure the other caching types also have ignore set for the forum page...
