The following solution worked for me. I put the code in the forms.py file.

from allauth.account.forms import LoginForm
from auth_project import settings

class CustomLoginForm(LoginForm):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super(LoginForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        if settings.ACCOUNT_AUTHENTICATION_METHOD == "email":
            login_widget = forms.TextInput(attrs={'type': 'text',
                                                  'placeholder':
                                                  ('Mobile Number'),
                                                  'autofocus': 'autofocus'})
            login_field = forms.CharField(label=("Mobile"),
                                           widget=login_widget)
        self.fields["login"] = login_field
        set_form_field_order(self,  ["login", "password", "remember"])

    def user_credentials(self):
        credentials = {}
        mobile = self.cleaned_data["login"]
        login = CustomUser.objects.filter(mobile=mobile).values('email')[0]['email']
        if settings.ACCOUNT_AUTHENTICATION_METHOD == "email":
            credentials["email"] = login
        credentials["password"] = self.cleaned_data["password"]
        return credentials

# this is to set the form field in order
# careful with the indentation
def set_form_field_order(form, fields_order):
    if hasattr(form.fields, 'keyOrder'):
        form.fields.keyOrder = fields_order
    else:
        # Python 2.7+
        from collections import OrderedDict
        assert isinstance(form.fields, OrderedDict)
        form.fields = OrderedDict((f, form.fields[f])
                                  for f in fields_order)

Thanks.
