To make activeCollab easily accessible to your team and clients, it is possible to set up a custom login form to match your website. You can also set the page where the users will be redirected after logging out.

Custom Login Page #

If you wish to provide a Custom Login Form (from your website or any other web page) you can do that by creating a form that submits a POST request to the login page with the following fields:

• login[email]
• login[password]
• login[remember]
• login[interface]

and following the hidden fields:

• submitted with value submitted
• external_login with value 1

Here is a simple form that you can use to enable logging in from another web page:

Email: <input type="text" name="login[email]"/><br/>
Password: <input type="password" name="login[password]"/><br/>
Remember me: <input type="checkbox" name="login[remember]"/><br/>
<input type="hidden" name="login[interface]" value="default"/>
<input type="hidden" name="external_login" value="1"/>
<input type="hidden" name="submitted" value="submitted"/>
<input type="submit" value="Login"/>
</form>
