Support
Good support
Documentation
Good to understand.
I used this to: My companies website.
Owner's reply: Hi Ekstak,

I'm fully sure the extension works well because I comprehensively test it on every new version. Maybe you can't login to frontend because you're logged in backed; the user session protection feature doesn't allow this and there is a complete explanation in the user guide. I also will be happy to help you if you contact me, but you didn't use the forum nor my contact email (I usually reply all posts/emails in less than 10 minutes)

Regards,
Jose
