    Thank you codebycarter. It could be that there was interference by a couple other plugins and the theme I am using. In the end I removed the plugin without problem, and installed a lighter forum.
    I’ll have to try this one another time.
    Thanks again.

    fpaterlini; Before you go messing around with your website – like I did – go to your browser’s tools and dump the cache (the history). Then go back and log in to your WP admin panel and see if things work as they are supposed to. There are ways to dump the cache in your WordPress site, too, which I’m just learning about. If things still don’t work after cache removal, you may have to do what I did, which was to uninstall WP and start over again. If you have to do that, use the WP export tool to export all your pages and posts. Then when you have the new site, you can import all your pages and posts right back to your site.

    To fix the problem, I had to take the website down and start over again. Full website backups didn’t help. They seemed to have backed up the error along with the files. There is a little “export” and “import” tool on the WP dashboard. It’s the best backup, because you can export your posts and pages separately. I also isolated the plugins folder on the cpanel,and moved it into the new WP installation. Still the new site continued to have the error and I suspected, as deepbevel mentioned, something going on in the browser. Sure enough, when I dumped the cache on Google Chrome, everything worked like a charm. Don’t you like happy endings?
