Also +1 for AWS. You can start out small for free for your first year, and grow to the size of Pinterest over time. All of the other tools they provide are helpful as well: RDS so you don't have to manage your own database, Caching Service, Queuing Service, etc. From: "Fred Stluka"

Re: Default UserCreationForm and UserChangeForm hard-coded to User; is this required?

James – Thanks for the reply. I'd agree that the docs suggest you have things to do if you replace the User with a custom user mode—but the docs also say to use get_user_model() versus hardcoding User ;) It's true that the built-in user form makes assumptions about the length of the username

Hi everyone, I have a Django 1.7.1 project structured as per documentation. In it, I have an app called "mainsite". In mainsite, I have templates/mainsite/index.html and static/mainsite/bootstrap.css. In the index template, I use {% load staticfiles %} and then for css I have the following link:

Re: Django - trying to access User model column field from a view

I tried what you suggested and printed from the view what the type command returned and it looks like this: type(userobj)=() so that part of it does seem to be working. So why can't I see the other values within the object then displayed in normal object notation instead of just seeing this:
