the # and link means nothing… its all done with onclick and jquery…

and js errors in the console?  or server error log?

no javascript errors or server errors … 

<a id=”accuploads” onclick=”sfjLoadForm(‘uploads’, ‘http://www.site.com/membersite/index.php?sf_ahah=components-loader’, ‘sfmaincontainer’, ‘http://www.site.com/membersite/wp-content/plugins/simple-forum/resources/images/’, ”, ‘sfopen’, ‘http://www.site.com/membersite/wp-admin/admin.php?page=simple-forum/sf-loader-install.php’);” href=”#”>Uploads</a>

source code above

then need to look at the ajax and http responses coming back from clicking on them…   can do from the console using firebug or other browser dev tool of choice…

is your server running mod_security by any chance?

Looks like you most probably have javascript issues in the wp admin. Unusual but not unknown. At least that is my best guess without being able to look at the source being generated in the console. If this is the case then the problem is explained in this codex article: http://codex.simple-press.com/codex/faq/troubleshooting/what-is-this-jquery-conflict/

Check from this article what is loading jQuery and other jQuery UI components…

Can you give me the url construction that is supposed to load the pages? If I can GET these, at least I can affect functionality until I can get this javascript issue resolved.

Thanks for your assistance.

only the top level in accordion have actual url constructs… the rest are done via jquery and ajax…

the top level ones would be of form:

http://yoursite.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=simple-press/admin/panel-forums/spa-forums.php

depending on which panel you want, use

panel-xxxx/spa-xxxx.php

for forums, options, components, admins, users, profile, themes, plugins, toolbox, integration, usergroups, permissions
