@tyler79,

Have you enabled the "Turn WordPress to wpForo" option? The option is located in Dashboard > Forums > Settings > General admin page.

If yes, please put the current page URL in “Exclude Page URLs” textarea, delete all caches and check again.

Hi @tyler79,

Please attach the screenshot of the "Website Terms and Privacy Policy Pages" field.

yeah they are (I mean I think they are) but for some reason when I try to page out the forum just 404's. It goes to the actual page

http://www.fuktos.com/terms/

but just shows a 404. I thought maybe the underlying WP theme might be causing and issue since Ive set the forum up to be the site/theme and tried changing it to something simpler but no dice.

Hi @tyler79,

Please navigate to Dashboard > Forums > Tools > Privacy & Rules admin page, make sure the URLs of the pages you've filled in the "Website Terms and Privacy Policy Pages" fields are correct.

So I have come to the realization that my forum does not like pages. I was setting up the pages for terms and privacy etc etc and it wont even go to those, just 404's right out. Thinking I might be starting this from scratch honestly, just nuke it and start from zero.

interesting, I dont even see that tooltip menu on mine at the top.

just updated the link in the menu with a custom, easy fix = thanks. I wonder why the buddypress stopped working though. I like having the BP login widget in the upper right, just looks nice honestly and I was hoping to get rid of the menu at the top all together but I guess not. Unfortunatly the BP widget doesnt have a way to customize the links.

Thanks for the help on that!

@tyler79,

When you click on the register link in the tooltip it opens the right registration page, please watch the video:

Please edit the main menu of your website and enter the correct registration page there.
