 At the end of each request, the User object is serialized to the session.
 On the next request, it's unserialized. To help PHP do this correctly, you

 Forbid Inactive Users (AdvancedUserInterface)
 ---------------------------------------------

+.. versionadded:: 4.1
+    The ``AdvancedUserInterface`` class was deprecated in Symfony 4.1 and no
+    alternative is provided. If you need this functionality in your application,
+    add the ``AdvancedUserInterface`` methods to your own user class.
+

 is 0 in the database), the user will still be able to login to the site
 normally. This is easily fixable.
