The cache directory is not writable - this will adversely affect the performance of your forum.

I have changed the permissions for the cache so it is writable but still getting this message

are you sure the change was successful?  proper folder ownership on the folder as well?  If its not writable by the webserver it will throw that error.  Alternatively you may be able to disable caching in admin > server settings.  But you won't be able to take advantage of file-based caching then
