<h4>How to use the Flexible Frontend Login shortcode on your site</h4>
On the widget settings page choose the Flexible Frontend Login and adjust the settings to your site.
In a post or page place <code>[flexible-frontend-login]</code>
By default the shortcode uses the settings set on the admin options page
You can override those default values with the following parameters and options:
<ul>
<li><code>vertical=top, bottom</code></li>
<li><code>horizontal=left, right</code></li>
</ul>
So your shortcode might look like this:
<ul>
<li><code>[flexible-frontend-login vertical=bottom horizontal=left]</code></li>
</ul>
If you want to use the centered login form with darkened overlay in the background 
use <code>[flexible-frontend-login-modal]</code> without any parameters.
<h4>How to use the Flexible Frontend Login template tag on your site</h4>
In template files place:
<code><?php if ( function_exists('flexible_frontend_login') ) flexible_frontend_login( 'bottom', 'left' ); ?></code>
To change popups behavior you can use
<ul>
<li>“bottom” or “top”</li>
<li>“left” or “right”</li>
</ul>
For popup with overlay use:
<code><?php if ( function_exists('flexible_frontend_login_modal') ) flexible_frontend_login_modal(); ?></code>
<h4>Live examples</h4>

</ul>
<h4>How to add your own styling</h4>

<li>Copy the files from <code>/wp-content/plugins/flexible-frontend-login/customization/</code> into the newly created theme subfolder</li>
<li>Adjust the CSS to your theme. You’ll find all classes provided by the plugin in that file.</li>
<li>If necessary change the HTML markup in the template file.</li>
</ol>
<h4>To Do</h4>
