I did not know that only users with is_staff or superuser status can log in via the admin console. Is there an in-built view/page to easily let a user log in or do I have to set up even the user login page and the associated view. I tried going through the Django user auth docs but am not clear where should I be putting in the python code for authenticating a user. Maybe I need to set up a view leading to a form, accept the values and process it.
