[web2py] Custom login form error

I have a custom login form that displays the error when the email is invalid (eg. like someone submits an email with a wrong email format, i.e, without @domain.com for example), but when an email that's not in the database is submitted, nothing happens, the page just reloads. Also, if an email

[web2py] Application Licensing

How do I license a web2py application for commercial use? I'd like to have a license that's renewable every 6 months. From a few similar questions I've read, I've gathered that web2py does allow commercial distribution but must be stated in the documentation that the application uses web2py...

I tried that... no luck. I think it's because there's multiple answers and all of them have the form input with name="aid", can't distinguish which request.vars.aid to send... different answers would have different amounts of likes... there's a for-loop statement above the form and each form has
