I don't know if I fully understand what is your problem. But I read your
other conversation with Robocop.
After auth.login(request, user) there should be HttpResponseRedirect() :
if user.is_active:
auth.login(request, user)
return HttpResponseRedirect(' .... ')
:
:
Why are u using two login functions? (One Django's and one, I guess, your
own) And you are not using form to get data from template?
After that redisrec, you can access user like this user=request.user (return
User obejct if logged in or Anonymous). Also don't forget to use context =
RequestContext(request) (see doc. for details)
Maybe something like this:
def home(request):
context = RequestContext(request)
return render_to_response("home.html", context)
In home.html you can access user:
{% if user.is_authenticated %}
{{ user.username }}.
{{user.first_name}} {{user.last_name}}
{% endif %}
Hope it helps little bit.
I'm still newbie in Django, som maybe someone else would it explain better
:)
