Web2Py minimal User authentication (username only)
web2py by default allows blank passwords. So simply hide the password fields in the login and registration forms using CSS. You should be able to use the default auth.
I did not find anything on the web and so I'm asking here.
Is there a way to create a custom auth wich only requires a username? That means to login to a specific subpage one has only to enter a username, no email and no password etc.?
Or is there a better way to do this? E.g. a subpage can only be accessed if the username (or similar) exists in a db table?
