Answer 1

You can use login_required decorator:

from django.contrib.auth.decorators import login_required

urlpatterns =[
    url(r'^$', login_required(views.profile), name='profile'),
]

If the user is not logged in, he will be redirected to the login page whose default is accounts/login . You can customize it by setting LOGIN_URL in your settings.

Hope it helps!
