    Going through the profile completion and on the "forum of choice" section. It takes me to my personal details. I have a "Preferred Forum Software" selected, and I'm assuming that's what forum of choice is referring to. I don't see any other options. Anyway, I have one selected and the account setup is not progressing. It still wants me to select my "forum of choice".

    I think I found the problem. Refresh the page after you made your selection. I tried it with my test user and after uploading an avatar, which was the step that user needed to complete, the next link was to post an intro thread. I clicked the link and it brought up the avatar box again. I did a page refresh and got to the next option.

    Let me know if that does it. I might have to tweak server settings a bit.

    No joy. Tried selecting different options and refreshing the page and still asks for forum of choice.

    I'm starting to wonder if "forum of choice" might refer to a particular forum I like to visit versus the preferred software. Maybe it's a custom field that I don't have permission to see?

    Fixed. Deleted a couple redundant profile fields that were the same on AA and it messed up the system.
