Re: Why does Django say my login form is invalid? How can I find out why Django thinks it is?

Tom,

- You shouldn't use Model=User (or the Meta) as it was a ModelForm, it is just a regular Form

- AuthenticationForm takes request as its first parameter:

def login_register(request, template="templates/login_register.html"):
    if request.method == "POST":
        login_form = AuthenticationForm(request, data=request.POST)
        if login_form.is_valid():
            print("Login form valid")
            # return redirect(home_slug())
        # else:
        #  print "Login invalid"
    else:
        login_form = AuthenticationForm()
    return render(request, template, {"login_form": login_form})
