Hello,
how the emails are sent by the registration form (I am using bbPress) of this theme? What if I want to use SMTP settings? Do I have to install a third party plugin for this?

Hello,

the emails send are not managed by the theme. They are managed by the emailing service on your host or by a third party plugins such as mailchimp.

Thank you!

You will likely need to use an SMTP plugin with WordPress so that emails are sent by an “email account” on your domain, and not by php/wordpress which looks like spam since it’s not sent from an actual email account.

A proper SMTP plugin basically logs in to an email account on your domain, like newsletters@mysite.com with password, then it can send out emails from the WordPress system.

This is common and is often the most trouble with ecommerce systems as “first big problem” — luckily the SMTP plugins are out there on the wordpress.org repo to fix this. You might need to try couple of different ones to work best with your particular server.
