Done that and forum is working but admin links aren't still.

I can click on the WP sidebar links and, say, go to Options  and that page comes up, but when I try to click on a SP forum admin link to, say, Manage Forums, the link doesn't work and the browser bar at the bottom just reads the Options page still. 

As I said before, this happened before and was corrected when I downloaded an update from you. Is there perhaps a recurring bug or something or have I got something set up wrong somewhere? Odd that it works and then for no reason suddenly doesn't.

There are no known bugs that I am aware of and none, of course, being reported by other users. Do you know how to use Firebug or check for script errors? If not, what browser are you using and I can advise on how to do it. Anything but IE...

I am using Google Chrome. No, haven't a clue. Do you want me to give you admin access and go in yourself?

That would probably be the quickest and easiest method if you are happy to do so. Cann you ensure that any such account also has SP admin capability not just WP admin...

Please PM credentials to both myself and to 'Mr Papa'. Please include in the PM a link to your site, a link to this thread and brief reminder of the problem. And one of us will take a look for you.

Ha, just tried and of course I can't get into forum admins to add you as the link's not working! I will PM you both anyway.

Good point!
As to the registration - just make a dummy email address up that has the right format. WP will accept it. Then PM us back again with the login/password you have used.

Hi there, have PM'd you and set you up as admin etc but not heard anything from you since. The forum is working OK now but I am concerned if something is still wrong on set up since it just happens out of nowhere. I am aware my support will run out soon and I don't want to be left with it unresolved/unchecked, please? Did you look/find anything?

Michaela - I am truly sorry if we have overlooked something here. We may have thought each other was working this so apologies.

I am in your site now - front and back ends - and to be honest I can see nothing wrong or worrying. Your forum WAS displaying twice - it was showing a second copy in the sidebar below the main display - but I have fixed that for you.

If this happens again there has to be a reason. Something has to change or be actioned that causes the issue. Might be activating a particular Wp plugin or turning on a specific option somewhere. The best advice I can give at the moment is to monitor and if it happens again try and remember what you may have just done. And come back to us with that information.

But at the moment al does seem well.
