Re: at django login my request.POST.get data are all empty, I struggle with what I missed there

Hi Sabine,

Your code looks good. Can you post you template code?

Why are you not using form `is_valid`? [0]

What version of Django are you using? You can be facing that your
request.POST is empty! [1]

This may be not what you are looking for but you can use Django
Authentication System [2]

Best
