Login via Home

[trevor]

Is it possible for users to login directly from the homepage?

On a forum, such as this one, directly on https://community.nodebb.org/ is it possible to login directly there instead of having to goto the login page itself.

Not a popup, just on the page itself.

Sure, off the top of my head all you would need is a button with id #login and then require('forum/login') and NodeBB should handle the rest for you

You'd need these fields too, obviously: https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/blob/master/public/src/forum/login.js#L11-L16

EDIT: Please find the latest version of this code here: https://community.nodebb.org/topic/4283/widgets-how-to-place-a-login-form-on-the-homepage-or-anywhere-else

Thanks I'll give it a shot!
