Recent Post Widget Not Working Right and Other Problems

I installed the widget plugin and inserted it into my sidebar.  It shows up, but does not list any recent posts in it, it’s just blank.  Also my toolbar to delete posts is not showing up.  I know where the toolbar is supposed to be but mine just isn’t there.  Any help would be much appreciated.

what options did you give to the widget???  screenshot would be best…

no caching plugins, right?

which sp theme?

do you have link to your site so we can look for obvious js issues?

ok I fixed the widget, but I still can’t delete post.  I read some other posts and it looks like you have to add a plugin that allows you to delete posts.  What is the name of the plugin?

there are multiple ways to delete stuff…  the two most common are the admin bar plugin and the forum tools…

the forum tools are part of core…  and when you hover over a forum row or a topic row, an icon will appear that you can click on and it will open a popup window with numerous tools you can use including deleting a post…

the admin bar is for unread posts or posts in moderation…

whoops… guess that is what I get for replying the admin bar… lol, couldnt see your first post…

we could use a link to your site as requested so we can look for obvious js issues…

Are you saying when you hover the mouse cursor over the topic or post rows you do NOT get the forum tools icon appear over on the left?

what is the proper url to your forum??  seems to be:  http://rotosmack.com/fantasy-forum/

but everything on the forum thinks differently…  look at links… more like:  http://rotosmack.com/forum/

need to get that squared away first… might go to forum – integration – page and permalink and update the permalink…
