. Oh well, seems useless!
It's forum. You never know when someone is going to be around who both can and has the time to answer your questions. For your original question try the list of usual fixes I'll paste below, if you haven't already.
Normally when you have a question you should create your own thread in the appropriate forum area. After searching to see if it's already been answered, of course. Here is a link to a thread with a how-to for both the website and the forum's app (usually referred to as the iPF app)

Other than that, just play with the app. You'll figure it out soon enough. If you can't figure out how to do something, ask. You can also visit the website for more control.

The Usual Fixes
------------------------------
When you have problems with an app it's a good idea to clear it from RAM.
Close/Clear the app:
iOS 6: With the problem app closed, double tap on the Home button to get the multitask bar. Tap and hold on any icon in the bar until they jiggle, then tap the minus sign on the problem app.
iOS 7: Double tap the Home button to get the multitasking display. Swipe up on the problem app's thumbnail image (not the icon).
If that does not work try a restart,
Restart: Hold down the power button until the power off slider appears. Slide it off. When the iPad finishes shutting down, hold down the power button again until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends you restart the iPad at least once a month.
and then a reset if that does not work.
Reset: Hold down the power and home buttons until the Apple logo appears. The iPad will reboot. This usually takes a bit longer than a restart.
Reset All Settings: Another, somewhat more drastic thing you can do is Reset All Settings. You'll find this under Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings. It won't erase any of your content, apps, or accounts; but you will have to go through most of your other settings and re-tweak them back to your liking.
