a link to your site would be nice…

make sure that you have clicked on update permalink button in the spf manage options page, toolbox tab…  also, make sure your page template you are using has the_content() in it somewhere…  check the online help troubleshooting section in you spf admin pages too…  need a link to suggest anything more at this point…

those are pretty irrelevant here…   its your page template that is needed… the one the forum page (you said page id and slug were correct) uses…

did you try the permalink thing as requested??  or the other items for 'page wont display' in the troubleshooting guide?

every page, not post, in WP uses a page template…  the default is usually page.php…  you select the template on the write/edit page in the wp admin…  worst case, it will default back to index.php but that would be abnormal for a theme…

you still havent indicated if you tried the other things I mentioned…

I tried all the other things you mentioned, but no joy.

my pages (ie; index.php , page.php etc..) all have the ()content call in them, so im puzzled there!

It's hard to tell without being able to see the site. So if it not the permalink, not missing calls in the theme template, not a 'special' install (i.e.m, sub-page, sub-folder etc) and you have fully installed it then that really only leaves other plugins. So what do you have activated there? have you tried deactivating them one at a time to see if there is a conflict?

I have deactivated every plugin, but no luck!! its really strange, the page just shows the template (as normal) with just the page heading 'Forum' , and thats it!!

Well you know there has to be a reason and it will almost certainly be something simple. It is interesting to note that you are NOT getting an error message so it sounds to me like it is not finding anything to display rather than coming across an error trying to.

Out of interest, when you load the empty 'forum' page and view the source are the CSS and javascript files benbg loaded from the plugins folders?

here's another thought as well. Switch your theme to the WP default and just see if it loads then.

no, the source shows nothing, here is a snippet ………


<div id=”mainContainer”>

<div id=”content”>
  <div class=”post” id=”post-95″>
  <h1>Forum</h1>

   <div class=”entry”>
    <br />
                    </div>
  </div>
       
     
    </div><!–end of content div–>

All the same if you have that kind of construct you still leave off the starting and trailing slashes in the forum permalink.

And no - sorry - no more ideas.

bascally it is not loading anything so it does not recognise the WP 'page' allocated to the forum as the 'page' to use for its display. if the slug iand the page id are correctly set in the forum options then I can honestly say this is a new one on me… And remember the slug is case sensitive I believe.

sounds silly… but at this point the question has to be asked… is the SPF plugin activated? Do you see the new FORUM tab in your dashboard pages?

even if the admin had no access… the basic layout would apear…

Hi!

I have similar problem, but in my case, I think it's because I had moved whole WP from directory to the root dir (I had developed WP blog side by side the old page located in the root dir). Now I can't see anything but a page title. I had updated permalink, ID and slug is still the same. How can I fix this please?

that location is fine…  when you say updated permalink, did you also do the one on the spf manage options admin page, toolbox tab?

a link to the site would be helpful…

You have something going on there, but between serious theme issues and the language its kind of hard to see/understand…

looks like the new topic/reply window comes up open which it shouldnt… wondering if you have a plugin conflict (js)…  I would try disabling all your plugins except the forum and see if it cleans up…  if so, then reactivate one by one until it breaks…

For some reason you are not running a skin for the forym. What happens when you go to >Admin > Manage Options > Style tab and look at the skin drop down? You do not currently have one active…

If your active skin is 'default' I suggest you take a look at the default.css file as it has been overwittten with an HTML source code dump.

Man! Thats it! Looks like it didn't copy files properly and some of them were lost, so I downloaded SF again and appended missing files. And it works! Thank you very much, you are doing really good job! Smile
