# customer-login

The `customer-login` template renders the login page and the password recovery page.

## Location

The `customer-login` template is located in the `templates` directory of the theme.

```bash
└── theme
    ├── layout
    ├── templates
    │   ...
    │   ├── customer-login.json
    │   ...
    ...
```

## Usage

It renders at `/account/login` and `/account/recover`. Without this template the store shows its built-in pages. When the store disables customer accounts, `/account/login` redirects to the home page. Logged in customers go to the home page.

Use the [`customer_login`](/themes/tags/form#customer-login) form to log in and the [`recover_customer_password`](/themes/tags/form#recover-customer-password) form to send a reset email. Both forms can be on the same page.

```liquid
{% form 'customer_login' %}
  {{ form.errors | default_errors }}
  <input type="email" name="email" value="{{ form.email }}">
  <input type="password" name="password">
  <button type="submit">Log in</button>
{% endform %}

{% form 'recover_customer_password' %}
  {% if form.posted_successfully %}
    <p>Check your email.</p>
  {% endif %}
  <input type="email" name="email">
  <button type="submit">Reset password</button>
{% endform %}

<a href="{{ routes.account_register_url }}">Create an account</a>
```
