Going from the documentation at
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.1/howto/custom-lookups/#a-lookup-
example, I created the custom lookup exactly as shown there. I then
registered it in an AppConfig.ready(). When django starts I get the
exception {{{AttributeError: 'function' object has no attribute
'cache_clear'}}}.

Comment:
Registering custom lookups in an app config's ready works ok for me. You
may need to paste copies of your code/setup to show how you're registering
it.
Additionally you can seek help from a wider audience using one of the
Django support channels: https://www.djangoproject.com/community/ You'll
