Hide First and Last name in Auth_User

[Warrick]

Prior to updating to 2.8.2 I could user the following code to hide the fields:

db.auth_user.first_name.readable = db.auth_user.first_name.writable = False
db.auth_user.last_name.readable = db.auth_user.last_name.writable = False

However, now I receive an error:

<type 'exceptions.AttributeError'> 'DAL' object has no attribute 'auth_user'

any suggestions?

Are you doing this before or after you call auth.define_tables ?

If after, what happens if you do this instead:

db.auth_user  # Just to check if some lazy table weirdness is going on

db.auth_user.first_name.readable = db.auth_user.first_name.writable = False
db.auth_user.last_name.readable = db.auth_user.last_name.writable = False

Just for the record, this works for me {2.11.2-stable+timestamp.2015.05.30.16.33.24
(Running on Apache/2.4.7 (Ubuntu), Python 2.7.6)}

auth.define_tables(username=False, signature=False)

db.auth_user.last_name.writable = db.auth_user.last_name.readable = False
