After filling out register form I always get a message 'Email address exists. Please insert another.' Then I'm logging as an admin and in 'users' I see the 'failed' registration. 

I turned out all plugins and sitting with it since 4 hours, no results. Any chance to help?

Those errors are NOT from the standard Wordpress script. Maybe from some plugin ? And where do you see failed registration ?

Registration/Login is not handled by wpForo but from Wordpress script.

 The related errors of a Standard Wordpress are:

ERROR: This username is already registered. Please choose another one.
ERROR: This email is already registered, please choose another one.

I turned off all plugins as I said before.

Yes, these are errors that I was thinking about - I've just translated them into Polish. Do you know when  I can look some help? I have no idea what to do next.

Emails with confirmation are sent (but link doesn't work), I can see accounts in users in dashboard, but I can't see message with success (after filling out registration form or trying to log in)

Try:

1. Disable wpForo. Does now registration works ?

2. Enable WP debug to a LOG and check for errors.

define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', true );
define( 'WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false );

I can always register via wordpress form, but I want to register via link http://example.pl/forum/?wpforo=signup which is provided in menu.
I set forum base url to 'forum' and I have wordpress template page for this (if it matters).

I have debugging turned on, but there are no messages. 

 

Also I've noticed that when I want to set custom URLs for login and for register it only works for login. Custom register link shows 404.
