Ah. Translated like that still leaves some doubt...

IF this is a blank screen with a white rectangle near the top containing the message then this is a WordPress message - not an error. It means that the nonce (a sort of security key with a limited life) has expired. Click on one of the WP Admin menu items - say the dashboard - then reselect the forum menu and it should be fine.

If this is NOT what you are seeing can you do a quick screenshot and attach it?

Simple:Press has its own menu in the WordPress admin. About half way down - the icon is a loud-hailer.

That suggests that you not logged in as the same user who installed Simple:Press. Initial full admin access is only granted to the user who installed it. They, in turn, can create other admin accounts of needed.

Understood - but are you the same user that installed SP. As I said - they are the user that the initial forum admin is created for. Forum Admins and WordPress Administrators are not the same thing...
