Re: Integrating User Profile with Auth

Another idea would be to connect to User's post-save signal. You can set it up to check whether the User instance being saved is just being created, and if so, you can create its UserProfile instance at the same time. That'd make it so all future users have profiles as soon as they're created;

Re: fetching values from model

In theory, if the view passed that function to the template (or if it were available as a method on something else that was passed to the template), I suppose you could. That said, you wouldn't be able to pass it any arguments. Once again, the template is _not_ designed for programming logic.

Re: fetching values from model

The only way to access a model from within a template is if the view specifically passed it via the template's context. Even then, you wouldn't be able to do much passing the model _class_ this way; you should be passing specific model _instances_. As the design philosophies doc says, "We see a

Re: Django GeoIP

Yes, there are dependencies for GeoIP. They're listed in the docs for GeoIP (http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.2/ref/contrib/gis/geoip/), and the docs' list of GeoDjango's requirements in general (http:// docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.2/ref/contrib/gis/install/#requirements) is also useful. HTH,

Re: Best way to get data into a HTML table?

Each model has a meta attribute with a list of fields on it; for a Photo model, for example, you can use Photo._meta.fields. This means you could do something (at least in the shell) like: >>> fields = Photo._meta.fields >>> photo = Photo.objects.latest() >>> for field in fields: ... print

As another idea, can you just update your SITE_ID setting (http:// docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.2/ref/settings/#site-id)? It defaults to 1 (for the example.com instance), but if you've got a new Site object for your actual domain, you should just be able to use its id instead. -Justin On Jul 10,

Assuming you know you'll always be filtering Entry objects (probably true, given the view's name) and using the same template, here's what I'd do: ===urls.py=== urlpatterns = patterns('', url(r'^entries/$', view_entry_list), ) ===views.py=== def view_entry_list(request): queryset =

Well, it's saying it can't find a file named seoappsla/views.py. Does that file exist? Based on the example code within the URLconf, I'd guess you might want to try seoapp_sla.views.index and seoapp_sla.views.detail instead--but without knowing what files you have in what directories, it's hard

Hey there. I'm starting a term as web development editor at my student newspaper in the fall, and we recently (February) launched a new site created in Django. My background's definitely more in design than in development per se, so I'm trying to get up to speed with Django by putting together a
