After forum update and the update of all plugins, I can not get the forum tools pop-up box to work. The box opos up, but you can not select any of the options such as Move Thread.
Can you check it for script errors by any chance? Do you know how to do that using the console tools?
Yes, all notices:

I thought we had knocked that damn setup_title() one on the head! I will have to look again!
But this is the error log. I was really meaning the script errors using the browser console. This WordPress page gives you a pretty good guide for doing so although the Firefox one is now out of date…
Ah, sorry – I’ll check that out tonight. I have the error log from my web server saved, that’s how I found the WP Avatar Plugin was not working after the new WP update.
When a user logs in using IE, the damn popup bubble is back. We coded that bubble out if you remember since it was preventing IE users from clicking links when logged in.
No I don’t remember to be honest. Are you talking about stopping the tooltips? Which I think can be a problem on IE using Wndows 8? If so then there is a directive in the spFunctions.php of you SP theme that can control this.

Yes, I would have thought this was fixed in the latest update:
Find this:
# A small javascript routine has been used to replace standard browser tooltips with
# more appealing graphics. You can turn this off by setting SP_TOOLTIPS to false.
define(‘SP_TOOLTIPS’, true);
From what I can see with the Forum Tools not working after update, the box appears behind the forum. Part of the box is under the forum page. Looks like another CSS issue… This happens in all browsers.
On the first question regarding tooltips I don’t udnerstand your point. This IS the define I mentioned. You need to set it to false. Did you overwrite it with an update to the theme? As always we recommend that you create your own SP theme so that any customisation is not lost during a future update. (http://codex.simple-press.com/codex/themes/theme-basics/creating-a-theme/).
Or are you suggesting that we should be able to fix the way it displays in IE/Win8? Because if so then all the ‘tooltip’ scripts I tried showed the same problem suggesting this is much more of a Win8 issue.
On the forum menu then this is going to come down to an artifact of your WP theme with a CSS styling conflict of some kind. There have been changes to the ui-dialog z-index caused by changes to the WordPress ui-dialog CSS. It is possible your Wp theme is overriding both. We would need to see it in action in order to suggest a solution.
I fixed the IE issue, yes I did not have my own theme created so the “false” was overwritten.
My website is live, I will PM you admin account so you can test this.
I believe we mentioned creating your own theme multiple times… 
not fun I know, but hopefully you have now…
were there any other customizations you had made?
Nothing else, I did have a saved copy of the .CSS for the CSS theme, so I am ok now minus the Forum Tools issue, can not select anything within that box.
