Registration in 1.8

[erip]

Hello all,

I'm new to Django.

Really new.

Like... 3 days new.

I already completed the Poll app, but I wanted to be a bit more adventurous with my Django-ing, so I tried to play around with the django-registration and django-authentication stuff. However, I'm having a hell of a time in 1.8 getting it to work properly.

Does anyone have some resources? I can also send my current code if anyone cares enough to help.

Thanks all,

erip

With the official Django release at 1.6.4, I wouldn't assume that third party packages are 1.7.x compliant, much less 1.8.x. (actually, I haven't even heard of 1.8 yet, and it's not on https://github.com/django/django/releases). Getting the hang of the ins and outs of 1.7.x is a great idea, but Django will always be ahead of the third-party packages developed on top of it. Some third-party maintainers wait for official releases, anyway.

Jon,

I found this. https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/releases/1.8/

I don't know exactly how I got 1.8, but here we are.

From the documentation, there should be no reason why django 1.6 or 1.7 registration shouldn't work, but I can't seem to get any concrete examples of user registration in django.

Unless you want to hack on Django core, stick with the stable Django releases. You say that you are three days in. Maybe try Django 1.4 to start.

What's the value in starting with 1.4?

I'd start with the current release - 1.6.4

OP is new to Django. There are tons of old blog posts, working code, etc dealing with registration and basic app set-ups using 1.4.

Also Django-registration works with 1.4, does it work with 1.6?
