Re: Help using index view to render registration form from registration app

Hi Dennis,

thanks for the reply. The index / root of my site will contain the
registration page for new users to sign up and contain a login page
for people who are already registered to log in. so yes i would want
this functionality on the default page and not have to redirect to a
specific registration url for member to register.
