Hello -

I have installed and activated the S2Members and watched the first two videos. I am missing something very basic. I am at my site (http://WeightLossthroughWellness.com) and I don't see any login link. Other membership plugins I have used, I have seen Login and Register links in the sidebar.

I don't get how visitors to this site will be able to login. They would have to know to type in http://MYDOMAIN.com/wp-admin

Likewise, I changed the Open Registration setting to "Yes" and yet visitors coming to the site can't find the login page that has the Register link to become a free member.

Sorry, I missing this very basic component!

Thanks!
Donna

Hi Donna,

If you're using s2Member Pro, you have available to your the Pro Login Widget, which allows you to add a login form to any widget-enabled area of your site.

With the free version of s2Member, you'll need to manually add a link to your menu (or sidebar) that points users to your login page (probably /wp-login.php) and to the register page (probably /wp-login.php?action=register).

If your theme supports custom menus, you can do this from WP Admin -> Appearance -> Menus. Otherwise, you'll need to edit your theme file and change the code where the main nav menu is generated (probably header.php).

Hi Donna:
As Raam Dev states just add to your navigation bar the LOGIN text and set the url to point to your sign in page which is /wp-login.php
Or you can add a link to a side bar by using the text widget and use html to add your links for registration and logging in:
<a title="LOG IN" href=" http://yourdomain/wp-login.php">LOGIN
