From what I understand, this is not a package that gives you a Member login view. It´s a package that lets you impersonate a member from your member section and login to your frontend as that member, by the click of a button in the backend. Sounds like a brilliant and much needed package.
To add this button you your members, you need to add a new property (with the datatype MemberLogin) to your Member Types, and then all Members of that Member Type will get this button:
However, it sounds like all you want is a login view for your members in the frontend, then you actually dont need any package at all. Use the built in macro template called "Login" and you'll get a login out of the box!
1) Go to the Developer section.
2) Right click "Partial View Macro Files". And select Create.
3) Make sure to leave the "Create Macro" checkbox ticked and in the Template dropdown, select "Login".
4) Save. Now you have a macro that you can place in your frontend, that will render a Member login. See animation:
like Dennis has mentioned, this package is not providing you a member login form. It only allows you to impersonate one of your members instead of manually entering your members credentials.
Login page / view is missing
Why is not there a login view, so you actually can use it.

Hi Christian Lyck,
