python - How to let user login on Mezzanine tutorial website?

Question

I just installed Mezzanine on my linux server. Following the tutorial, with the command set

mezzanine-project project_name
cd project_name
python manage.py createdb --noinput
python manage.py runserver

Now I have the first simple site working now.

In the setting, there is a check box about

"Accounts required for commenting: If True, users must log in to comment"

But I can't see any log in function provided on the tutorial website.

Should we just handcraft the create account/ log in function? Or is there a better way to do that? Thanks.

Answer 1

You need to enable the mezzanine.accounts app which has provides all the login functionality.

This is entirely covered in the documentation:
