Register/Login popup form for WordPress site - wordpress

Hi I'm building a site using the WPTUBE4 theme in WordPress. I'd put the link but I'm creating it on my localhost using WebMatrix. My issue is i can't get a register/login popup form to work. I just want to have a button or link in my header that says Login and another that says Register and when you click have a form popup in a "lightbox" lets say and then the user can Register using their email and a password like most other sites have. Then from then on they can just login to the site. To complicate it a bit more I would like to set up a "log in using facebook option" much like how StackOverflow has. I've just been having a hard time finding the right tutorial or plugin online and I'm hoping that this newbie question can be answered and/or someone can point me in the right direction. Thanks and sorry for it being such a simple thing to ask. Not sure if i should be using jQuery for this or something like it, I might just redirect to another page with the form there but i wanted to avoid this, i wanted to keep users on the same page and just overlay (Lightbox effect) the form then when they're done they could return to exactly where they were. Regardless of what i use i would like to learn the skill to use both. Thanks.

Wordpress: What do I need to allow users to highlight texts?

Great day to you all,
I'm using a forms plugin to create quizzes. In the plugin there is a piece of literary text on the left, questions on the right. I would like the user to be able to highlight or underline anything during the quiz. I have done a lot of researching to try and find a solution or a plugin to achieve such purpose.
If you please, assist I will be forever thankful. The plugin I'm using is eForm - WordPress Form Builder by WPQuark.
I have found the below tool set on one of the sites I was randomly browsing to find that what I am looking for is not impossible, but it is either custom-coded or a plugin somewhere. I can link the website that I have found this tool set on if you wish.

How to add a bespoke social sharing message to a specific page

I've used services like 'Add This' for a while but now I need to add a couple of specific bits of functionality to an ecommerce order completion page. It's to work like Amazon's order thank you page where it allows you to post a message to Facebook saying something like 'I just bought a widget on Amazon'.
Equally I'm looking for the equivalent in Twitter.
I've added a bunch of OG tags and share buttons but can't get it to do what I need. From further reading it sounds like I might need to create a Facebook app of some sort and use FB ui to create the link to post to the user's wall. I was hoping to do this without getting tangled up in that level of permissions etc but maybe that's not possible any more?
This is being developed on asp.net C#, in case there's a library that I haven't found in my searching.
Can anyone familiar with this type of development point me in the right direction?
For Twitter, the simplest way is to use Web Intents.
For example, if you want to share the text
I love http://example.com
URL encode the text to I%20love%20http%3A%2F%2Fexample.com and use the Twitter Web Intent URI. E.g.
https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?text=I%20love%20http%3A%2F%2Fexample.com
When the user clicks on that link (try it!) or is directed there by your service, they'll be prompted to share that text.

Like and google +1 buttons on website

I have a website (testing) on wordpress and installed a plugin to show google +1 button for each post. And when someone press it, the number increases with one.
My Question is Where this +1 button points ? As far as i know +1 is for google plus posts on pages on profile but my website post is NOWHERE on google plus(page) it is just on my website and the same for facebook like button (where it points)
I hope you understand what i am talking about.Please help
Well, there is a "+1s" page in Google+ user profiles, you can find your own here: https://plus.google.com/yourgoogleplususeridhere/plusones
Seems like it is not visible to other users from the beginning on. You can change that in the settings, but as an external user you probably don´t see other users +1s if they don´t want to. Maybe that´s your problem.
To be more clear on this: If you are not in someones circles and they have furthermore disabled to publicly share their +1s, you might not see them on Google+, although they are there. Somewhere.

The Best way to put like button in your site:

Just click Get Code, put that in your template. Facebook will do the rest.

How Can Wordpress Easily Provide A Voting and Commenting View For 5 Page Layout Possibilities?

Right now, when I create a media item, I can view it as admin by going through the Media then clicking on view, eventually I end up at [mysite]/blog/?attachment_id=31 which is a nice reduced version of the image (which can be clicked to appear large), and which has the nice feature that there is a place to leave comments at the bottom.
This is great for administrators. But I want anonymous users to be able to look at 5 different, fairly similar images, and make comments on the pages separately. So I'd like for the anonymous users who navigate to [mysite]/blog/?attachment_id=31 to find the same page the way it looks to admins.
But when going to that URL as an anonymous user instead of the image with comment form I get:
Sorry, no posts matched your criteria
So, how can I enable this permission for anonymous users?
If this is not possible, please rephrase the question as, "What is the best way to use Wordpress to get a bunch of anonymous people to vote on 5 different layouts and also to be able to comment on each of them separately, as I am trying to do at http://christian-filipina.com/blog/ ? (None of these are public URLs, please don't link to them.)
Do I need to create a page for each of those separate layouts and then use HTML to link to the variously-sized versions of the images?
When adding an image to the post make sure that "attachment page" is checked instead of "image file" This should fix your problem. See: http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Image_and_File_Attachments
