Plain text profiles and no admin tools

Hey all! I'm really loving the plugin and all of the functionality that it has, but I've run into a couple of problems that I can't seem to find answers in the wiki or codex.

First of all, when a user goes in to change their profile they don't get the nice options that you guys have for adjusting your profile. Instead, I get just tabs and when you click on them they open a new window with just plain text. That wouldn't be a deal breaker, but the only way out of the plain text page is to use the browser's back button. I need to get it to look like yours does.

The second thing has to do with admin tools. I've gone into my Admin Global Options and made sure that "Display Forum Edit Tools" is selected. However, nothing appears on the actual forum, even though I'm logged in as an admin. I also tried changing the theme but I still don't see the option.

I'm thinking that both of these issues might have to do with javascript, but that's a bit out of my comfort zone. I was wondering if you could take a quick peek and see if there is a quick fix for these items. The URL is http://www.learnhowtowp.com/me.....ard/forum/

Thanks in advance for your help and for putting out this awesome plugin!

This article explains your problem: http://codex.simple-press.com/.....-conflict/

Your site is double loading jquery/jquery UI (from your theme I believe in both cases) and if you open the script console you will see it is throwing several script errors all of which are stopping jQuery from working.

Nice looking theme though.

Oh yes - you also seem to have the Mingle forum plugin active. You really do need to deactivate ANY plugin you are not currently using!

Turns out the theme developer had already fixed the issue. It was my fault for not updating the theme.

Thanks for your quick response time and for taking the time to take a look!

So far I'm absolutely loving Simple:Press!!
