Hello there,
I have setup email login in a Django site in a very similar way as
http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/74/
It works on the admin, meaning a correct email/password combination logs
the user in.
The problem is when there is no user with the entered email address in
the database. The admin shows this misleading error message:
"Usernames cannot contain the '@' character.".
To solve this, I have tried a custom AdminSite class (the error message
is displayed from the login view method in the AdminSite class) with a
modified login method, but then I have to find a way to get all the apps
registered in the default admin site (using a customized AdminSite
instance won't show any app in the admin index page).
I tried defining the get_urls method like this:
def get_urls(self):
from django.contrib.admin import site
return site.get_urls()
but that doesn't work, because it uses django.contrib.site's login view
instead of mine, so I try hacking the urlpatterns:
def get_urls(self):
from django.contrib.admin import site
index = self.admin_view(self.index)
return patterns('', url(r'^$', index, name='index')) +
site.get_urls()[1:]
which does not work either, I get the "Looks like your browser isn't
configured to accept cookies. (...)" error message when logins should be
successful :(
I don't want to keep on going with a custom admin site for only getting
that error message right, but I don't see any other way (don't want to
hack Django's code either, unless this is considered to be a bug).
Does anybody know of a better way to handle this?
Thanks!
