What I have tried:
How do I make other HTML files working? In this code, I created a base.html in which I gave the if-statement that if loggedin then show the second navigation bar otherwise show the first one.
I defined both nav and nav2 in login.html. Now when I type localhost:8080/login, it shows me the login form and it works correctly but when I type other URLs like home, about, signup, it does not show me anything.
Although before adding the if-statement in base.html, every URL was showing the page. I added the home.html also as an example to see if the code is correct.
