Hi @chris-yau
The shortcode [nextend_social_login_register_flow] has a different purpose.
What you need to know is that, by default we try to handle our codes over the WordPress default login page ( /wp-login.php ). For example, when you ask extra details before the registration let’s say you display the Terms and Conditions:
then by default we display that on the /wp-login.php page.
However if you create a new page and you put this shortcode into that page then you select this page as “Page for register flow”, then Nextend Social Login will ask the extra details on this page instead of the /wp-login.php page, and the shortcode will display our form that ask the extra details before the registration.
Note: The shortcode will only have output, when a users tries to register with social login.
If you goal is to display the social buttons, then you should use this shortcode instead:
[nextend_social_login]
as this will render the buttons of the providers which are enabled on your site.
Tip: the shortcode has multiple parameters, here you can check each: https://nextendweb.com/nextend-social-login-docs/theme-developer/#shortcode
Best regards,
Laszlo.
