Use django signals infrastructure. Handle post_save and post_delete signal and add or delete profile. Example of creation:
from django.contrib.auth.models import User from django.db.models import signals from django.dispatch import dispatcher def create_profile_for_user(sender, instance, signal, *args, **kwargs): from myapp.models import Profile try: Profile.objects.get( user = instance ) except ( Profile.DoesNotExist, AssertionError ): profile = Profile( user = instance ) profile.save() dispatcher.connect(create_profile_for_user, signal=signals.post_save, sender=User) On 8 дек, 15:41, Julien <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Thanks for the link Thomas.
