Introduction
Force User Login in Odoo Website elevates visitor engagement by ensuring users must authenticate before accessing certain parts of your site. By activating the “Is User Force Login” option in your website settings, all non-logged-in visitors will be greeted with a clean login popup anytime they try to explore restricted content. This enhances interaction, encourages account creation, and keeps your website's valuable content behind controlled access.
