How to check if a user is logged in (how to properly use user.is_authenticated)?

Question

I am looking over this website but just can\'t seem to figure out how to do this as it\'s not working. I need to check if the current site user is logged in (authenticated),

Answer 1

If you want to check for authenticated users in your template then:

{% if user.is_authenticated %}
    
Authenticated user
{% else %}
    
{% endif %}
