Hello Ruslan,
I used this syntax in the user method of the default.py controller for my
app :
user = authapi.login_user(user) # in your original reply you
recommended the Authapi method, so I used that one.
This worked, and my user was logged in, but the user login form which was
still displayed afterward.
If I used the login_bare method it does not display the login form.
Kind Regards,
David
