Actually, that was the example I tried following. I still have previous tables from the wizard generator the first time around I tried to actually create them.
So, I inserted the example into the models/db.py, saved and go to database administration, but it still shows the previous tables generated by the wizard: db.auth_user db.auth_group db.auth_membership db.auth_permission db.auth_event Is there some other way of creating/viewing these tables, then constantly going/creating the tables with the database wizard?
