How do you create your project, using: django-admin.py startproject XXX? If you did like this, the settings.py should include default apps. > > The tutorial says the following will be found by default in this section. > > * django.contrib.auth -- An authentication system. > * django.contrib.contenttypes -- A framework for content types. > * django.contrib.sessions -- A session framework. > * django.contrib.sites -- A framework for managing multiple sites > with one Django installation. > > Can I add these manually before doing a "syncdb"? Yes. And you can also modify the settings.py as you change the project, and rerun the syncdb command. > Do I have to make any changes anywhere to get the samething working ?

Of course you can add them manually. And there are string fromat, just like python module. But you should write them just like these: 'yourprojectname.appname1', 'yourprojectname.appname2', And you can also write them other formats, as long as django can import them. For example: 'yourprojectname.apps.appname1' or 'apps.appname1' # and you should add apps' parent directory to PYTHONPATH, so as django can import them correctly. > -- I like python!
