SilverStripe MultiForm not working

I installed and configured SilverStripe on my server. I installed the MultiForm module and followed the instructions in the module documentation.

After following the instructions I still don't see any new page type in my CMS Portal.

I also tried db/build?flush=1 & dev/build?flush=1 but it doesn't make a difference.

I Created the Following files in mysite/code/ directory

SponsorSignupForms.php

class SponsorSignupForms extends MultiForm{
    protected static $start_step = 'CompanyDetailsStep';
}

CompanyDetailsStep.php

class CompanyDetailsStep extends MultiFormStep{
    public static $next_steps = 'ContactDetailsStep';
    function getFields()
    {
        $fields = singleton('Member')->getFrontendFields();
        return $fields;
    }
    function getValidator()
    {
        return new Member_Validator('FirstName', 'Surname', 'Email', 'Password');
    }
}

ContactDetailsStep.php

class ContactDetailsStep extends MultiFormStep{
    public static $is_final_step = true;
    function getFields()
    {
        $fields = singleton('Reference')->getFrontendFields();
        return $fields;
    }
}

How do I get these custom MultiForms working and appearing as creatable pages?

Of course you don't see any new page type in the list of available pages, you will only see subclasses of SiteTree there, MultiFormStep is "just" a subclass of DataObject.

You can plug your form to every page you want manually, but you also can create a new page type for your form and include the Form in your Controller and Template, see readme of MultiForm:

class MyFormPage extends Page
{
}

class MyFormPageController extends Page_Controller
{
    // 
    private static $allowed_actions = array(
        'SponsorSignupForms',
        'finished'
    );

    public function SponsorSignupForms() {
        return new SponsorSignupForms($this, 'Form');
    }

    public function finished() {
        return array(
            'Title' => 'Thank you for your submission',
            'Content' => '<p>You have successfully submitted the form!</p>'
        );
    }
}

In the template just include the form:

<% if $SponsorSignupForms %>
    $SponsorSignupForms
<% end_if %>

and you should see the form now.
