Hi Jon, I was just wondering if you made a decision on this? I'm looking at a similar approach and am wondering what direction you ended up taking and why? Currently looking at Knockout myself but open to suggestions. Thanks! --Martha On Thursday, September 6, 2012 4:30:30 AM UTC+1, dotne

Re: Permissions and the sites framework

2012-11-04 Thread Russell Keith-Magee
Hi Stodge, The short answer is no -- there are no plans to do what you describe. That said, what you describe shouldn't be too hard to write yourself. Permission checks are quite well abstracted into the auth backend, so you could fairly easily write your own authorisation app that adds a model t

Ok, I admit that I saw the cd and stopped thinking straight - apologies. I don't know why you are getting the problem you are getting, but I would suggest that you should delete one indentation one the render_to_response line, so that it catches *everything* that falls through the cracks. Also, w

I haven't heard of a package that does what you need. I will try to help you as much as possible. I use django-registration to handle user registration. It provides a form named RegistrationFormUniqueEmail, this form, as its name suggests, will ensure that the email used is unique. For login:
