Why second user login redirects me to /accounts/profile/ url?

Question

I am using Django built in view for user login:

url(r\'^user/login/$\', \'django.contrib.auth.views.login\', {\'template_name\': \'users/templates/login.html\'},         


        

Answer 1

when you use the view build in django. and you are successfully logged in. django.contrib.auth.views.login which is the django view you used.

It has inside a parameter called LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL that automatically redirects you after logging in. and is by default configured with Default: '/ accounts / profile /'.

wich is The URL or named URL pattern where requests are redirected after login when the LoginView doesn’t get a next GET parameter. says documentation

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/ref/settings/#std:setting-LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL

Try adding this to the html page form you use to login.
