Fresh stand alone installation

Hi,
I've just installed the community on my server and it all went smoothly.
I do have lots of errors though and I can't find a good installation/debugging article or discussion feed.
1- I can't tag people. It says loading and stays like that forever
2- I can't upload an image. I'm receiving an error message.
3- I can't load the controller for the notification preferences.
4- I can't sign out (I'm using Google Sign In plugin)
5- I have a 403 error when signing in (Google) on mobile (only)
6- I keep getting the pop-up "You are previewing the Keystone theme" in the Dashboard. Cancel or Approve does not make it disappear,

Thank you

Do you have pretty urls enabled?
https://open.vanillaforums.com/discussion/comment/220157/#Comment_220157
What is your hosting environment, like PHP version?
Use the Debug function, https://open.vanillaforums.com/discussion/comment/259053/#Comment_259053 , add detailed error message here
I do not think I can help with this issue.
The ones that can would need some info, hence me asking you to post the above.
Thank you @Kaspar
The PHP version is PHP 7.4.25
If I change the .htaccess and config.php to enable the pretty URL, then I can't access the forum anymore.
I've enabled the debug mode. On the homepage, I have 2 Infos:
If I want to tag someone, nothing happens:
If I try to upload an image, I have a long error message. Nothing in Debug:
As for the notifications, nothing's capture in debug mode, and I got the spinner indefinitely:
I've also got an issue with the profile pop up. If I click on my profile (top right), there is a pop up coming up with some options. And I can't close it. I have to reload the page.
Note: moving the forum from a subdomain to a folder of my domain improved the forum behaviours.
I can now navigate and I'm not always redirected to the forum home page.
However, I still can't tag people and upload images.
I have more logs too. A 'notice' that seems to come a lot:

Logged as an admin, the forum seems to work fine (in terms of navigation)
If I log as a user with Google Sign In (right screen), then links won't work.
Take Google Sign In out of the equation.
Create a user member and login with it regularly.
Still issues - look at the PHP extensions
Ok. I don't think it's an issue with Google. It's how the path wors (or doesn't).
If I use the default theme, all the links have index.php followed by a parameter.
If I use a different theme, it uses a relative path (or is it what you call pretty URL)? such as /categories, and in that case, nothing works.
Now, if I try to tage someone, it makes an API call: /community/api/v2/users/by-names/?name=mark*&order=mention&limit=50
But, I believe because the pretty URL isn't working, it doesn't return anything.
If I follow the instructions to get pretty URL working (.htaccess and config changes), I have a 500 error (too many redirects).
I could leave without tagging people I suppose. But I still can't upload any images.
Rewrite url / pretty url is required
You did uncomment the line, removing # and added foldername, if in folder?
Try this

Ok, looks like using the .htaccess from Vanilla forum 2.2 did the trick. I will keep it as is. Thanks
Superb.
Pretty urls active and all previous mentioned issues not present?
