Good job!
Turning off ‘New User Email’ fixed the registration e-mail problem. I must have turned it on and then forgotten about it.
The ShareThis buttons showed up when I used Chrome (I usually use Mozilla) so I'm not going to worry about that any more.
One more question, completely off topic: Is there any way to make the breadcrumb 'home' go to handtoolwoodworking.com/forum/ rather than the index page of my website? Or to get rid of that breadcrumb?
Thanks!

OK, well the important thing is it gets you up and running!
ShareThis - It's possible that you might have some pretty aggressive popup ad-ware blocker of some type installed the could be interfering with it? Either way they are working and what you're seeing is a local to you problem, so again good stuff.
As to the breadcrumb home going to the forum, yes you can do that. You do need to make a small change to a theme template so you'll need to create a Child Theme if you haven't already done so.
We have added child theme frameworks to the store for free, so all you'll really need to do is download the relevant framework, add the template you want to change to the child themes folder (in this case reboot-child > templates > desktop > spHeadDesktop.php) and edit.
Find the function sp_BreadCrumbs() on line 146 and add the argument &homeLink=
The ampersand is important as it adds the new argument in succession, and nothing after the equals is important as it removes the home link meaning your breadcrumbs will start at 'Forum'.
Hope that helps!

I don't know much about coding. Can you show me where to add the &homeLink= argument in this line (I think I have the correct line):
sp_BreadCrumbs ('tagClass=spLeft spBreadCrumbs&tree=0&icon=&homeIcon=sp_CrumbsHome.png&truncate=35', __sp('Home'));

Sure..
In case you want to know for the future, the function is laid out as
sp_BreadCrumbs($args='', $homeLabel='')
So function name, arguments and label.
You can search any function in our Codex to find out what arguments are available, In this case using homeLink. homeLink can have a value, but we don't want it to show so leaving the value blank removes it and using the '&' adds it on to the list of current arguments. It will then look like:
sp_BreadCrumbs('tagClass=spLeft spBreadCrumbs&tree=0&icon=&homeIcon=sp_CrumbsHome.png&truncate=35&homeLink=', __sp('Home'));Make sure you use the 'View Raw Code' button when you copy, as otherwise the quotes might show as rich text quotes and will break things, they have to be plain text which is why we use the syntax highlighter to paste code.

Glad to see you resolved the issue Elia. In case anyone else still has this problem, here is my two cents as well.
I was struggling with this issue the past day or so. I ended up bypassing the entire problem by allowing registering persons to choose their own password on the spot, instead of being emailed something.
The (free) plugin I found is called "User Registration Aide". It can be found by searching in the "add new plugin" within the dashboard. It is rated 3/5, probably because the interface is rather ugly. But after spending 10 minutes messing around in it, it accomplished everything I needed.
Hope that helps someone.
