All color & formatting preferences for users are gone & no longer work. I have set the color "red" from my profile I normally would. No members have the appropriate colors since running the upgrade link provided.

Did you UNINSTALL the MOD first? If so then thats your problem, you need to IMPORT over top of the old version.

I overwrote as the readme requested. Vbulletin is not new to me even though the account is new =)

I overwrote the appropriate files via FTP as well as overwrote the XML product file.

Same for the language file.

Some users still have their colors. Some users don't. Even after changing my colors I am still stuck with the forum default (same for 4 other members online).

Hmmm how about reverting back to your old USER table before you upgraded to 2.3.1

There it is... What now?
Well you haven't installed correctly !

Download 2.3.1 zip and upload the files from the files directory. Be sure to overwrite the one on your ftp.

Well I don't think it would solve the solution.

What you must understand is that if you change your usercp settings while the chatbox is running on another active page they won't be saved.

Unless you deactivate the formatting auto register
