Hi,

I'm using the django.contrib.auth app to manage user login/logout.  I
can successfully log in and out, but I cannot access the {{ user }}
object in my templates.  If I'm reading these documents correctly,
that should be enabled by default:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/41547/always-including-the-user-in-the-django-template-context

   
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/topics/auth/#authentication-data-in-templates

Am I missing something?  Here is a snippet from my base.html:

{% if user.is_authenticated %}
    <p>Welcome, {{ user.username }}. Thanks for logging in.</p>
{% else %}
    <p>Welcome, new user. Please log in.</p>
{% endif %}

If I I have my view explicity include the request.user object in the
template context, the above code works as expected.  But I don't want
to have to put this in every one of my view functions.

Here are the template context processors in my settings.py:

TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = ("django.core.context_processors.auth",
                               "django.core.context_processors.debug",
                               "django.core.context_processors.i18n",
                               "django.core.context_processors.media",
 
"django.core.context_processors.request",
)

Any insights appreciated.


Thanks!
