Hi everyone, following this topic https://forum.djangoproject.com/t/implementing-a-custom-backend-for-email-authentication/5231/16 I rewrote my app from scratch and decided to move forward with the rest of the training. That’s why I wanted to tweak my index.html in the sense that when a User Logs …

Is user present in the template context?

To add to and expand on @CodenameTim ’s answer, you shared a view with us - but it’s the wrong view. In the case of a successful login, you are redirecting to a url identified by “app_base:index”. It’s that view that should be rendering the template fragment you supplied above, and that’s the view …

Hi @KenWhitesell , @CodenameTim , Yes the view you see above is the index.html view (app_base:index). I’ve tried the following in order to send user to the view but no result : from django.shortcuts import render def index(request): return render(request, "app_base/index.html", {"user":user}) …

When you call render, you need to pass in {“user” : request.user} not just {“user” : user}. user is not defined in that function.

Hi @Berries , I did what you noticed but no result. I changed both my login and index views in order to get more debug info : def loginUser(request): if request.method == "POST": form = loginUserForm(request.POST) if form.is_valid(): form_email = form.cleaned_data[…

Just to cover all the bases, do you have the appropriate middleware classes in your settings? ‘django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware’, ‘django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware’, and you’re using the system standard login() method, right? (you haven’t replaced that…

Middleware classes : MIDDLEWARE = [ 'django.middleware.security.SecurityMiddleware', 'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware', 'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware', 'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware', 'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationM…

Yep, I’m stumped at the moment - which means I need to try to recreate the issue locally. I’m really glad you included that print in index, that’s illuminating. I’d be really curious to see what is in request.session at that point too - and what request.user is. I’m beginning to believe that there…

As mainly an aside, did you make a mistake coping the model here? password should be a CharField.

▶ Ignore Also be sure to define the get_user method on your backend: def get_user(self, user_id): try: return User.objects.get(pk=user_id) except User.DoesNotExist: return None The above was pulled from the example at https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/topics/auth/customi…

Whoops, def get_user(self, id): belongs on your custom backend class.
