Support Forum
I just installed 5.0.5 latest build, and have my forums up on http://rotarynewengland.org/forums, but I can't add a topic. Also tried creating a new trial user, adding him as a Member, but also can't add a topic when I login as him.
What am I missing here??
Thanks,
Larry Levenson
holy wow! that's a lot of js errors being thrown on that site...couple dozen...
looks like a lot of stuff cannot find jquery... looking at your page source, I dont see jquery being loaded... there is a commented out section of js where it wants to load jquery from google (bad) or fall back to local... but its doing neither...
did you comment that out? but even if loads the local jquery its loading a very old copy - much older than the version that ships with wp and expected by plugins to be there...
more: http://codex.simple-press.com/.....-conflict/
so lets resolve your theme not loading wp jquery first...

OK. I have eliminated the weird jquery loading script from the theme header, and replaced it with
<script type='text/javascript' src='http://rotarynewengland.org/wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.js?ver=1.7.1'></script>
However, now when I click on a forum . . Club Discussion for example . . . I get a 404 error and my URL has an uncategorized slug. What's up with that?
Using SimplePress in several of these Rotary Club websites, so I'd really like to get this resolved.
Thanks!

I am still getting some js errors when I click on a forum... not sure its related to the incorrect redirect, but worth looking at... in the theme scripts.js, you will find this:
$(document).ready(function()
really works better in wp if its:
jQuery(document).ready(function()
but again, may not be the redirect...
try going to forum - integration - page and permalink and updating the forum permalink now that thinks are working... some other thoughts if that doesnt work...
but some questions... any redirection plugins? or redirection going on in the .htaccess file?
all redirections are to: http://rotarynewengland.org/un.....iscussion/
notice the uncategorized? so do you have a category in wp called forums?

Changed the scripts.js file as you noted.
No redirect plugins; standard simple WP .htaccess file
Updated permalink in SF, and in WP.
Tried creating a forums category (still in existence now), but SF is still linking to uncategorized. I note that /forums/club-discussion is re-directed to uncategorized.... this may be the problem?
Maybe need to rip out SF entirely and start over?
you should just remove the category...
on forum - integration - page and permalink, you have selected a wp page for display, correct?
what other wp plugins are you using? anything trying to do CMS stuff?
can you do a quick switch to the default wp theme and see if it persists? just trying to rule out some stuff...

I removed the vategory.
Forum integration page points to forums page, which does exist and uses the Default template.
Get the same 404 error (with uncategorized in the URL) with TwentyTen.

Also, I have attached my functions.php (in functions.zip) file, which has a bunch of stuff in it. All commented as to what it does.
Will probably implement SF on a clean TwentyTen site tonight, get it working, and slowly rebuild my structure.
Thanks for sticking with me on this -- really want to get it working.
any chance that you already have a 'forums' directory on your server in the wp root from a third party app?
perhaps edit the wp page that forum is on and change the page slug to something else as a test... dont forget to update the forum permalink on forum - integration - page and permalink after that...

Installed Simple Forum on a new, clean WO installation. I immediately noticed a different folder structure in sp-resources. That could explain everything.
I Deactivated the plugin and deleted all associated files/folders. Also deleted all related DB tables. And deleted all options table entries related to SF.
Will download a fresh copy of latest version and install. Will let you know what happens, but I'm hopeful this will solve the problems.
