Hello:

1. I am not quite sure what you're looking for in regards to the registration and login but you should see a login and registration button or link on the main forum page (the location will depend on which simple:press theme you have activated). If not, make sure that you have registration turned on in the admin screen: FORUM->COMPONENTS->LOGIN AND REGISTRATION. 

2. For your background it sounds like you would need to apply some css or create a simple:press child theme with the code needed to apply the colors you want.  The proper approach would likely depend on what your main WordPress theme is and how it works. 

3. Not sure what you want with short-codes but if you let us know which short codes you're trying to use and where you're putting them we'll let you know if it can work.   (Short-codes in the forum posts are not allowed.)

Thanks.

Hi:

First, make sure that the TEMPLATE TAGS plugin is activated under FORUM->PLUGINS.

Then, you will have available the ability to use the following template tags:  https://simple-press.com/docum.....gs-plugin/

For the newest topics, see this: https://simple-press.com/docum.....st-topics/

There is no short-code for the online users but  you can add some php code to your theme to do that.  Use the sp_NewMembers function to put it where you need it.  If you're not comfortable writing php code you can get a developer to do it for you in a WordPress child theme.  Look in the simple:press bare-bones theme folder for the footer file (templates/desktop/spFootDesktop.php) and search for the sp_NewMembers function.  You can then copy that into your WordPress theme where you need it to go.

Thanks.
