Just figured it out. It was a strange setting in my blog template. All is well now. 
I never did get it to work correctly. I just made number of topics showing 5. Then it created a new page.
But now I have a similar problem on the main Forum page. I now have 6 forums, but only 5 will show. There is not a page 2 link at the bottom. I adjusted the settings to only show 5, but still no page 2.
Any suggestions?
BTW, I am using the plugin version and have not altered the templates.
