Very little documentation and support, missing the correct functions to actually
work.

The installation process was straight forward and easy setup. Surprisingly, after
complete setup, pages created by the plugin don’t load. I was able to only see the
login screen from the admin profile. Recaptcha doesn’t work properly although setup
properly. The profile and account pages don’t load.

I’ve been looking for ages for a login/signup plugin that just gets the job done.
And after 20+ plugins and days wasted I’m finally here. Others would charge expensive
price for this. please continue updating this plugin.
