Form validation msgs outside of the form's page

hi welcome.

for a better help some code is needed.

it looks like the form submission action forwards you to the wrong page ...

Hi, thanks for your reply.

Here is my form under the login/index/phtml

                        <form id="login-form" action="login/start" method="post" role="form" style="display: block;">
                            <div class="form-group">
                                <input type="text" name="username" id="username" tabindex="1" class="form-control" placeholder="Username" value="">
                            </div>
                            <div class="form-group">
                                <input type="password" name="password" id="password" tabindex="2" class="form-control" placeholder="Password">
                            </div>
                            <div class="form-group text-center">
                                <input type="checkbox" tabindex="3" class="" name="remember" id="remember">
                                <label for="remember"> Remember Me</label>
                            </div>
                            <div class="form-group">
                                <div class="row">
                                    <div class="col-sm-6 col-sm-offset-3">
                                        <input type="submit" name="login-submit" id="login-submit" tabindex="4" class="form-control btn btn-login" value="Log In">
                                    </div>
                                </div>
                            </div>
                            <div class="form-group">
                                <div class="row">
                                    <div class="col-lg-12">
                                        <div class="text-center">
                                            <a href="https://phpoll.com/recover" tabindex="5" class="forgot-password">Forgot Password?</a>
                                        </div>
                                    </div>
                                </div>
                            </div>
                        </form>

This is my login controller:

    public function indexAction()
{
    //Inserto los assets de los CSS remotos y locales
    $this->assets
        ->addCss('https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/css/bootstrap.min.css',false)
        ->addCss('css/estilos.css');

    //Inserto los assets de los javascript remotos y locales
    $this->assets
        ->addJs('https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/js/bootstrap.min.js',false)
        ->addJs('https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.2.1/jquery.min.js',false)
        ->addJs('js/main.js');

}

public function startAction(){
    //Inserto los assets de los CSS remotos y locales
    $this->assets
        ->addCss('https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/css/bootstrap.min.css',false)
        ->addCss('css/estilos.css');

    //Inserto los assets de los javascript remotos y locales
    $this->assets
        ->addJs('https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/js/bootstrap.min.js',false)
        ->addJs('https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.2.1/jquery.min.js',false)
        ->addJs('js/main.js');

    if ($this->request->isPost()) {

        // Get the data from the user
        $email    = $this->request->getPost('username');
        $password = $this->request->getPost('password');

        $user = Users::findFirstByemail($email);

        if ($user) {

            if ($this->security->checkHash($password, $user->password)){
                $this->_registerSession($user);

                $this->flash->success(
                    'Welcome ' . $user->name
                );
            }
            else {
                $this->security->hash(rand());

                $this->flashSession->error("Wrong email/password");
                return $this->view->pick("login");
                /*$this->flash->error(
                    'Wrong email/password'
                );*/

            }
        }
        else {
            $this->security->hash(rand());
            $this->flash->error(
                'Wrong email/password'
            );

        }
    }
}

private function _registerSession($user){

    $this->session->set(
        'auth',
        [
            'id' => $user->id,
            'name' => $user->name,
        ]
    );
}

you have to use forwarding https://docs.phalcon.io/en/3.2/dispatcher#forwarding,

let's say that the login form page is: LoginController with indexAction:

            else {
                $this->security->hash(rand());

                $this->dispatcher->forward([
                     "controller" => "login",
                        "action" => "index"
                 ]);
                $this->flash->error(
                    'Wrong email/password'
                );

            }

Awesome!!!! I just tried and it worked!

I'm in love with Phalcon!

Thanks for the documentation, I was trying to figure out how to pass the control to another controller.

One more question, which tool do you use to share the code ? any code snipped ?

Thanks,
