I used the shortcode for the dashboard login but it is not working.
The shortcode is [affiliates_dashboard_login]
But it is not showing anything like an area for affiliate users to log in.
I used that of the [affiliates_dashboard] but it is only showing for registration and no login form in it.
What could be the issue?
I need the short code for direct login of the registered affiliate users.

    Hi Mary,

    Welcome back to our support forum.
    The [affiliates_dashboard_login] shortcode will render a login form, so if you are visiting the page as a logged-in user, then it will show nothing because you are already authenticated.
    As for the [affiliates_dashboard] shortcode, it renders the registration form because you haven’t registered as an affiliate. Whenever a guest comes to you site, they can either register as users and later on can also register as affiliates, using the affiliates registration form. Also, if a guest uses directly the affiliates registration form, both actions happen at the same time. Regardless of the route thoug, in both cases, the user record is mapped to the affiliate record.

    Furthermore, if you wish all your newly-registered users to also become affiliates without any further action, then you should also check the premium addon, Affiliates Users which is provided exactly for that purpose.

    Hope it helps.

    Cheers
