I have followed this https://world.episerver.com/blogs/Daniel-Ovaska/Dates/2016/6/creating-a-custom-login-page/ tutorial to create a custom login for my application.

What I want is to attach this page to start page some how so that I don't have to go into the admin/edit part and create from there. I don't people to be able to create multiple pages under this template.

Because right now it comes in the edit panel as a new page type. I don't want that. Its going to be one page

Create and attach it to the start page from code in a migration and provide the ContentTypeAttribute with AvailableInEditMode=false option to hide it.

Create an instance of your class and set parent to ContentReference.StartPage and save it through the ContentRepository.Save function?

Yeah I get that part but where in the EpiServer should I create an instance for it? Should I just make an controller action and call it or should I do something else?

We normally setup our own migration service to run all our one-time changes and have an initialization module trigger it, but i am not sure if there are any built-in support in episerver for it.
