How to Create a Customized Login Page for Odoo 14

Creating a customized login page for your Odoo application can enhance user experience, making it more aligned with your branding or functionality needs. If you're using Odoo 14 Community Edition, you might find yourself needing to not only design a new login interface but also connect it properly to the Odoo backend. This guide will walk you through the process of creating a customized login page that works seamlessly with Odoo.

Understanding the Problem

Before diving into the solution, let's clarify the two important aspects that need addressing:

Connecting the Customized Login Page: You want to understand how to link your new login page with Odoo, particularly concerning API calls or URL redirection.

Setting the Custom Page as the Default Login Page: You need to ensure that Odoo displays your new login page instead of the default one.

Both of these concerns are interconnected, and tackling both will lead you to your goal.

Solution Overview

1. Connecting the Customized Login Page to Odoo

To successfully connect your customized login page to Odoo, you will need to integrate it with the existing Odoo login mechanisms. Essentially, this involves modifying the controller that handles authentication.

The Controller

In Odoo, the specific controller used to handle the login request is defined by a route. The relevant piece of code looks like this:

This route directs users to the login functionality. For your custom page to authenticate against Odoo, you will likely need to ensure that your page sends the required credentials to this route when a user attempts to log in.

The login process typically involves:

Collecting username and password inputs from your custom page.

Making an HTTP request to this /web/login endpoint with the necessary parameters.

2. Setting the Custom Login Page as the Default

Once your login page is ready and connected, the next step is to configure Odoo to recognize your page as the new default login page.

Modifying the Template

To modify the display settings of the login page, you will need to alter the HTML template. In Odoo, this is handled through XML templates. The key XML template that you're interested in is:

By overriding this template, you can specify that the system should render your customized layout when users visit the login URL.

Implementation Steps

To summarize the implementation into actionable steps:

Create Your Custom Login Page: Design the login interface tailored to your needs, ensuring it has fields for username and password.

Integrate with Odoo’s Authentication System:

Prepare your form to collect credentials.

Use JavaScript (or an HTTP library) to send these credentials to the Odoo login route (/web/login).

Override the Default Template:

Access your Odoo installation's template files.

Locate and modify the web.login template to redirect users to your customized login page.

Test Your Configuration: Ensure that users can now navigate to your custom login page and authenticate with Odoo successfully.

Conclusion

Customizing your Odoo login experience not only enhances your brand but also improves user interaction. By connecting your customized login page to the Odoo system and replacing the default template, you can create a smooth and personalized experience for your users.

With these steps detailed, you should now be equipped to embark on customizing your Odoo 14 login page effectively. Happy coding!
