Comment:

 I added Q2A to our blog farm and activated it for access.okfn.org. Now
 some admin of the blog need to [http://access.okfn.org/wp-
 admin/edit.php?post_type=question&page=settings configure] the plugin.

 I hope that all works fine and close.

NOT FIXED I am admin for the blog but there is no settings tab for the
plugin and when I follow the edit php? link the message page not found
appears.
Same thing for adding a question and trying to save.
I think something in the install went wrong and the path is unknown as a
result of this
