Question :
I am using a custom login template to login to staff or non-staff members but the login page only allows the staff members to login in. When I try to log in using a non-staff member the page stays on the login page but when I log in with a superuser email it redirects to the blog page URL.
One thing before you give me the answer, Yes I have already added
