Rails, Authlogic without password (registration ok. user_session validation fails)

Question

I am trying to skip the password for Users in Authlogic..

Thanks to SO, I found a solution for creating users

 User
 acts_as_authentic do |c|
   c.valida         


        

Answer 1

Actually found it here:

Using Authlogic to authenticate with only a username

Just pass a user object instead of login/password

UserSession.new(User.find_by_username('Shreyas Satish')) (This works with rails 3 and authlogic 2.1.6)

Thanks to fantactuka!
