How do I add a dropdown to the login page?

I know there is formProps in the AuthPage component, but I'm not sure how to use it with MUI Select component. On the login page, I want to add a select component that lets the user select their role (whether they are an admin, student, or teacher)

Hi @soto76. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- The formProps prop in the AuthPage component is used to pass props to the form component. This includes changing the initialValues and the onSubmit function. However, the extracts provided do not contain specific information on how to use formProps with the MUI Select component. That being said, you can use the MUI Select component within the form in the AuthPage component. The MUI Select component can be used for a wide range of purposes on a website, including a form component. Here's an example of how to use the MUI Select component in a form:

import React, { useState } from 'react';  
import Select from '@mui/joy/Select';  
import Option from '@mui/joy/Option';  

export default function SelectBasic() {  
 const [value, setValue] = useState('student');  
 return (  
 <div>  
 <section className="login">  
 <div className="loginContainer">  
 <label>Role</label>  
 <Select  
 value={value}  
 placeholder="What is your role?"  
 onChange={(e, newValue) => setValue(newValue)}  
 >  
 <Option value="admin">Admin</Option>  
 <Option value="student">Student</Option>  
 <Option value="teacher">Teacher</Option>  
 </Select>  
 </div>  
 </section>  
 </div>  
 );  
}

import React, { useState } from 'react';  
import Select from '@mui/joy/Select';  
import Option from '@mui/joy/Option';  

export default function SelectBasic() {  
 const [value, setValue] = useState('student');  
 return (  
 <div>  
 <section className="login">  
 <div className="loginContainer">  
 <label>Role</label>  
 <Select  
 value={value}  
 placeholder="What is your role?"  
 onChange={(e, newValue) => setValue(newValue)}  
 >  
 <Option value="admin">Admin</Option>  
 <Option value="student">Student</Option>  
 <Option value="teacher">Teacher</Option>  
 </Select>  
 </div>  
 </section>  
 </div>  
 );  
}

In this example, the Select component is used to create a dropdown menu where the user can select their role. The Option component is used to create the options in the dropdown menu. The value state is used to keep track of the selected option. Please note that this is a general example and might need adjustments based on your specific use case. For more detailed information, you can refer to the refine documentation (https://refine.dev/docs) and blogs (https://refine.dev/blog). ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai how do I use MUI Select component within the form in the AuthPage component?

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Based on the information provided in the extracts, the AuthPage component in Refine allows you to customize the content of the form using the renderContent prop. However, the extracts do not provide a specific example of using the MUI Select component within the AuthPage form. Here's a general idea of how you might use the renderContent prop to include a MUI Select component in the form:

import { AuthPage } from "@refinedev/mui";  
import Select from '@mui/material/Select';
import MenuItem from '@mui/material/MenuItem';

const MyLoginPage = () => {  
 return (  
 <AuthPage  
 renderContent={(content, title) => {  
 return (  
 <div>  
 {title}  
 <Select
  value={role}
  onChange={handleChange}
  displayEmpty
  inputProps={{ 'aria-label': 'Without label' }}
 >
  <MenuItem value="">
    <em>None</em>
  </MenuItem>
  <MenuItem value={10}>Admin</MenuItem>
  <MenuItem value={20}>Student</MenuItem>
  <MenuItem value={30}>Teacher</MenuItem>
 </Select>
 {content}  
 </div>  
 );  
 }}  
 />  
 );  
};

import { AuthPage } from "@refinedev/mui";  
import Select from '@mui/material/Select';
import MenuItem from '@mui/material/MenuItem';

const MyLoginPage = () => {  
 return (  
 <AuthPage  
 renderContent={(content, title) => {  
 return (  
 <div>  
 {title}  
 <Select
  value={role}
  onChange={handleChange}
  displayEmpty
  inputProps={{ 'aria-label': 'Without label' }}
 >
  <MenuItem value="">
    <em>None</em>
  </MenuItem>
  <MenuItem value={10}>Admin</MenuItem>
  <MenuItem value={20}>Student</MenuItem>
  <MenuItem value={30}>Teacher</MenuItem>
 </Select>
 {content}  
 </div>  
 );  
 }}  
 />  
 );  
};

In this example, the renderContent prop is used to render a custom form content. The Select component from MUI is used to create a dropdown menu where the user can select their role. The MenuItem component is used to create the options in the dropdown menu. Please note that this is a general example and might need adjustments based on your specific use case. For more detailed information, you can refer to the refine documentation (https://refine.dev/docs) and blogs (https://refine.dev/blog). ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

Hello @soto76 you can swizzle auth page for your custom needs: https://refine.dev/docs/api-reference/mui/components/mui-auth-page/

| refine

component from refine is an authentication page that can be used to login, register, forgot password, and update password.

@batuhanw thanks! this worked, but for some reason when I added another login variable "role" to the login function, I am getting the error role does not exist in type LoginFormTypes. But I already added "role" to the LoginFormTypes and triple saved the file, and it still didn't work. My workaround was creating another interface that is exactly like LoginFormTypes and then using that interface for the useLogin hook. It works, but I feel like i'm missing something...
