Just completed an install & migration. Anything that is clicked results in a 404. Appears none of the URL’S are valid.

Suggestions?  Thanks much.

migration?  check forum – integration – page and permalink and try resetting the forum permalink…

Okay.  I am using Yoast on the site and read a related post

I changed these settings to >> http://screencast.com/t/IrGRIS5X
Now, it seems the url’s are correct.

We’re using the Yoast latest and greatest, is there anything else I should know?
Or, should the configs above be adequate?

We’re hosted at WPEngine and using their host (which includes caching).
I think I read somewhere I should not cache our forum page? True?

yes, you cannot cache the wp page the forum is on… the page is dynamically generated (with internal caching) so caching the page (or minifying etc) will cause problems…

Okay.

Just noticed… If I click ‘logout’, the page navigates to a non-existent page, /forum … which causes a 404.
Strange, I don’t see /404 defined anywhere in the configs.

Could this be cache related?

Thanks!

BTW I appreciate the great support.

could be… also check forum – components – login and registration and check the logout url that is specified there… any other login/registration plugins?

That did it — login and registration url — thank you.
