I'm working on a Django(1.10) project in which I need to load a template only for logged in users, which is coming from profile template.I need to load generateCert.html only for logged in user, this template should display the same navbar as profile template because both of these templates have the same header.
Here's my generateCert.html template:
{% load staticfiles %}
{% load static from staticfiles %}
{% load mathfilters %}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">

Here are my views.py:
@login_required
def payment_process(request):
if request.user.is_authenticated():
minutes = int(request.user.tagging.count()) * 5
testhours = minutes / 60
hours = str(round(testhours, 3))
# pdb.set_trace()
# What you want the button to do.
invoice = generate_cid()
paypal_dict = {
"business": settings.PAYPAL_RECEIVER_EMAIL,
"item_name": "Certificate of Completion from Nami Montana",
"custom": {"name": str(request.user.first_name + ' ' + request.user.last_name),
"hours": str(hours)},
"invoice": str(invoice),
"amount": "5.00",
"notify_url": "https://8bf57d43.ngrok.io/users/paypal/",
# "return_url": "https://b906ef46.ngrok.io/users/profile/",
"cancel_return": "https://8bf57d43.ngrok.io/users/cancel/",
}
print(paypal_dict)
# Create the instance.
form = PayPalPaymentsForm(initial=paypal_dict)
context = {"form": form}
return render_to_response("users/generateCert.html", context)
else:
return HttpResponseRedirect('/users/login')
Here is my urls.py:
url('^process/$', views.payment_process, name='payment'),
generateCert.html template display the menu of Anonymous users not logged in users menu, that means this template loaded by the unauthenticated user. How can I strict this template to only logged in users as it's coming from the profile page.
No, it doesn't mean that at all. What it does mean is that you are not passing the user to the template. This is because you are using render_to_response - which apart from anything else is deprecated - rather than the render shortcut which runs context processors.
Note, your login_required decorator makes that if request.user.is_authenticated() check pointless; the user will never not be authenticated.
Also note that you really should be using template inheritance to break out things like the top nav and the HTML boilerplate into their own templates.
