I'm using the thumbs up/down option for the plugin. It displays a rating image, but I can't click on it to rate posts.
Ex: http://prometheusreview.com/fo.....-currents/
I've checked to make sure rating is enabled for that forum.

I cannot try to rate, but I would guess its your use of the minify plugin... it seems to mess up much js in our plugin and others... so try telling it to ignore the forum page...

Thanks. I actually have the javascript minification disabled because it was interfering with another plugin and I didn't know how to exclude it. I still have css and html minification enabled. Might that be what's interfering with the rating buttons? Could you tell me how to exclude the relevant files (file name, path)?

afraid I have never used the plugin and assumed it supported simple exclusion... that is, just a page slug to not minify on that page...
I doubt its a css issue... and not sure what html minification would do???
maybe i missed something else and will try to look again...

The Minify plugin allows exclusion in the following way (with text fields for each):
Local Files Minification
JavaScript files to exclude from minify (line delimited).
CSS files to exclude from minify (line delimited).
URIs on which WP-Minify parsing will be disabled (line delimited)

OK it's a personal view but with a little experience to back it up... but I think the automatic 'minification' of files is just fine when you have a fairly simple and straightforward WP blog site but when you start to add in plugins and themes that require adding new scripts and components then iot can cause havoc and is nothing but trouble waiting to happen...

seems easier at first to disable it completely and either rule it out or confirm...

It's not WP-Minify. I deactivated the plugin and the problem persists.

next step is to use firefox and firebug... with the console open, see what happens when you click on the vote icon...
since guests cannot rate, I cannot try it myself...

So far, I absolutely love this forum setup you guys have going here. On the other hand, I cannot even come close to naming how many times I see "you need to use firefox and firebug" to find a problem to the customer. To be honest, most would not understand how to use that program to find a problem anyway. Relying on them to find the issue is quit unprofessional in all honesty. I understand that you guys have a very small team and limited time to spend on the product. It's also free so complaining would also be something unpleasant by a customer as well. On the flip-side though, I think that you should not release a new feature until the product works 90% of the time regardless of other features people have on their WP installation. I understand that you need to release a product and have feedback on it to fix issue that you missed as well. Perhaps you could create a group of experienced designers and developers to look at your work. If they pass the new feature as "good", then release the product. I notice the same issues people are complaining about around the forums day after day and most of the time the response is "you need to use firefox and firebug"...
I also had an issue a while back and this was the response to my issue. Perhaps you should create a plugin that tracks crashes and reports for your program so that you can find these mistakes immediately and why it happened so that you don't have to rely on un-experienced designers and developers to find the overall issues. I would be happy to install that plugin.
Also, how about a page that gives people an update on "upcoming fixes" and "we are aware of"... this too would help with the say "this is working" type posts.
I don't want to sound like I am bad mouthing you guys because I am not. I think you are doing a great job overall. But I also think that a better system could be created to finding issues and bugs.
