I had installed simple press on a staging platform, then migrated it over to my production site. Everything was working properly, except administrative functionality was missing (e.g. I was getting the message that the profile admin form was missing; this functionality was missing). So, I decided to uninstall simple press from the production site and re-install it. Now I can't even install it. The files are there, I activate them, then I get the message below the plugin: "Simple:Press is READY TO BE REMOVED. When you deactivate it ALL DATA WILL BE DELETED."  There is no install option,only a deactivation option; and the Forum option is on the dashboard, but it doesn't contain any detailed options for simple press.

I have tried deactivating, uninstalling, re-installing, reactivating, downloading the files again, uploading, and I keep getting this message. I suspect it has to do with an unclean uninstall, but I don't know what else to do. Someone please advise me ASAP. Thank you.

sorry, not quite sure of all you are saying...

are you sure you uninstalled?  following the proper procedure?

to uninstall, you would go to forum - toolbox - uninstall... and select the uninstall option...  then go to the wp plugins page, and as the message says, deactivate simple press... this will uninstall simple press...   deleting the plugin will NOT uninstall it...  have you fully uninstalled it this way?

if you are getting that message, and dont want to uninstall, go back to forum - toolbox - uninstall and uncheck the uninstall option...

can you elaborate on what you mean by forum option in dashboard with no options?  you are not seeing multiple menus with multiple panels per menu?  are you sure you are viewing the admin as a simple press admin?  remember, wp admins are not necessarily sp admins unless made so on forum - admins - manage admins... after install, the only sp admin will be the wp admin who installed sp...  but then new ones can be added...
