Below code will help you to login to the Liferay Portal using custom portlet or we can say custom logic
JSP Page :-
<portlet:actionURL var="createNewIndex" name="createNewIndex">
<portlet:param name="action" value="customLogin" />
</portlet:actionURL>
<form action="<%=createNewIndex %>" method="post">
Email: <input type="text" name="email"> </br>
Password: <input type="text" name="pasword"> </br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
