I am using Django allauth to authenticate users to signup and login. But this error TypeError at /accounts/signup/ View.__init__() takes 1 positional argument but 2 were given comes up as I try to access django allauth signup and login templates.

urls.py:

from django.urls import path
from allauth.account import views as allauthViews
from . import views



urlpatterns = [
    path("", views.index, name="index"),
    path("<int:myid>/", views.quiz, name="quiz"), 
    path('<int:myid>/data/', views.quiz_data_view, name='quiz-data'),
    path('<int:myid>/save/', views.save_quiz_view, name='quiz-save'),
    
    path("accounts/signup/", allauthViews.SignupView, name="account_signup"),
    path("accounts/login/", allauthViews.LoginView, name="account_login"),
    path("accounts/logout/", allauthViews.LogoutView, name="account_logout"),
    
    path('add_quiz/', views.add_quiz, name='add_quiz'),    
    path('add_question/', views.add_question, name='add_question'),

You need to use as_view() in your urls

…
urlpatterns = [
    …
    path("accounts/signup/", allauthViews.SignupView.as_view(), name="account_signup"),
    path("accounts/login/", allauthViews.LoginView.as_view(), name="account_login"),
    path("accounts/logout/", allauthViews.LogoutView.as_view(), name="account_logout"),
