Hi, I am trying to figure out if i can get away with creating the login.html and logout.html files ?
The scenario is this: - I have a navigation bar which has the username/password field in it . I am using the example at : http://twitter.github.io/bootstrap/examples/hero.html - I want the user to login at this box and be redirected back to the current page. as per the documentation I created an app for account and in its url.py I have added from django.conf.urls import patterns,url from account import views urlpatterns = patterns('django.contrib.auth.views', (r'^login/$', 'login', {'template_name':'account/login.html'},'login'), (r'^logout/$', 'logout', {'template_name':'account/logout.html'},'logout'), ) in my index.html file i did the following modifications : {% if user.is_authenticated %} <ul class="nav pull-right"> <li> Hello {{ user.username }} ! </li> <li> ( <a href="{% url django.contrib.auth.views.logout %}">logout</a> </li> </ul> {% else %} <form class="navbar-form pull-right" method="post" action="{% url django.contrib.auth.views.login %}">{% csrf_token %} <input class="span2" type="text" placeholder="Email"> <input class="span2" type="password" placeholder="Password"> <button type="submit" class="btn">Sign in</button> </form> {% endif %} I checked with admin user (which was already logged in via /admin url ) and the above reflects the username if admin is logged in otherwise it shows the login form boxes. Now, what i am trying to do is get a new user i created ( vibhu ) to login, but the app is expecting to find a URL for account/login . I get the following : TemplateDoesNotExist at /account/login/ Is there a way to remove this requirement ? I dont want to really create an account/login.html or account/logout.html if possible as I think those are unnecessary here. I want the login/logout to be handled by the code in the navbar itself.
