Accounts

There are 5 primary pages that are used with Accounts.

The Log In page is where the user will log into their account. They will be shown this page if you link directly to the Log In page or if you link to a page that is password protected but the user is not logged in yet.

The URL for this page is: yourdomain.com/account/login.

The Log Out page isn't an actual page that gets displayed to the user. Rather it is a special URL that when accessed will log out the currently logged in account and return them to the log in page.

The URL is: yourdomain.com/account/logout.

The My Account page is the primary landing page for the account once they've logged in. It can display information about the account and is usually used to link to other account pages, such as the Edit Account page.

The URL for this page is: yourdomain.com/account.

The Edit Account page is where the user can edit their account profile. It is only accessible if the account holder is logged in.

The URL for this page is: yourdomain.com/account/edit.

The Register page allows a website visitor to create a new account profile.

The URL for this page is: yourdomain.com/account/register.

This page is shown is the logged in account holder tries to access a page that they do not have access to.

The URL for this page is: yourdomain.com/account/notallowed.

Each page within the account app has its own template to display that page's content.

Template files will go in a folder that has the same name as the app instance key. The account app is for public accounts and does not have multiple app instances. It's app key is "account" and the name of the template folder is also "account". You would put all of your template files within the account folder inside the templates folder.

If your theme was called "Custom" then this would be an example folder structure:
