Something very weird is happening here...
I'll try to explain...
3 new users have registered. Then I delete all of them. Remove there accounts. Ok..
Now comes a new member...
New member creates an account..
When this new member post anything in the forum, his user name, the one that shows in the forum, is not the one that he registered, however his name is the same from users that were already deleted!
Seems like new accounts are beeing linked to some removed accounts....
got it?

Not really no.
But... I wonder if it is linked to an issue with 5.4.0 where forum member records would not get removed if you removed the user from the WP users panel. If so then the weekends update to 5.4.1 corrects that.

Yes I use to remove users from wp panel. Maybe I have some issue between sp and wp users. I thought they work together.
I'll try the update.

They do work together and I am still not really sure what you were seeing but I would start by upgrading to ensure member data is removed under these circumstances.
User data is tied everywhere by the User ID - we do not and indeed can not cross User IDs in any way.

Made the update and still not working.
For somehow old users are not beeing removed from the data base and believe it or not new users appears with old users names in the forum!
Imagine you come here and create a new account.. eg: login: black / pass: white
Then you log in and post something... Whey you look to your name in the post.. "pink" is is your name.
Pink used to be an old user that was removed months ago.
Probably I'm having a conflict between sp and another pluing (Theme My Login) that I use to register and log in new users.

I removed this button in the past and I want to restore it but I don't remember how.
Can you guys help me with this?

if you removed the logout button, you likely removed the function call for it... I could try to walk you through it, but will be much easier for you to just look at the default theme, file spHead.php and find function
sp_LogInOutButton('tagClass=spButton spRight', __sp('Log In'), __sp('Log Out'), __sp('Log in and log out'));
just copy it from there to same location in your sp theme...

I still do not understand how any of this could happen unless user IDs are being changed or re-used - and out of the box WordPress does neither of these things. If you can get to look at the data tables for one of these users then check out their ID in the WP users table and then match it up with the user_id in the forums sfmembers table...
