Tell us what you are trying to do? I have restricted access to a certain post for guests and would like to have only registered users be able to see this particular post type. I have been able to create the login form for a new user to register but cannot seem to create a login page for already-registered users.

I have been inserting the following shortcode (see uploaded image) into a new page but when I publish, there is no form. The page is completely blank.

Is there any documentation that you are following? I reviewed the following tutorials, support tickets, and pages.
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/building-the-my-account-page/
https://toolset.com/forums/topic/custom-login-page/
https://toolset.com/forums/topic/customize-login-page/

Is there a similar example that we can see? I do not know of one. The membership reference site seems to imply that a login page exists but none of the tutorials show or demonstrate how to set it up.

What is the link to your site?

This shortcode displays a standard WordPress login form.
