Overview
After a User has been added to the system or they have signed up, they will then be able to login to the system through a customizable login page. Generally, the username and password are embedded in the website.
- Note: Language-specific login pages can be created and can be accessed using a drop-down when a person tries to login.
In this above example, the login page consists of numerous components: an actual login section for username and password, a registration button, a privacy and security policies hyperlink, language options, and Branding that customizes the background, logo, and description.
