Help a newb with authentication and registration

Hi,

I don't know what allauth does but you can check the django docs about custom 
auth and user model:

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/topics/auth/customizing/

Maybe not what you are looking for but it's a good documentation whichs can 
help you understand more about this topic.

Help a newb with authentication and registration

[Ben Gorman]

I've spent the past few weeks trying to set up a custom (but not 
unreasonable) user registration and authentication flow using allauth for 
my site.

- email instead of username
- a (not necessarily unique) display name
- email verification required

(more details and a skeleton project here 

)

I'm very lost on how to accomplish this.  I've already paid someone $150 
through Odesk.com to help me, and although they got it working they didn't 
explain anything and left me very much in the dark.  

So, I'm looking for people's advice on how I can write and understand the 
registration/authentication system that I need.  For example, do I need to 
write my own custom user model or does allauth handle everything I need? 
 How do I handle superusers?  Do I need to make my own "accounts" app?  Are 
there good tutorials on using allauth (I couldn't find many)? etc. 
 Basically I'll take any advice.

Also, if anyone's willing to give me some personal tutoring/help on this 
topic I'd be very appreciative and am willing to pay.

Thanks
