Comment (by jlaine): I have put up a pull request here: https://github.com/django/django/pull/6376 @apollo13 mentioned that we might want to support the case where a custom user model defines is_anonymous / is_authenticated as methods instead of properties. In this case we could do something like this to monkey-patch that user model to the new style: {{{ def __new__(cls): if not isinstance(cls.is_anonymous, property): real_is_anonymous = cls.is_anonymous cls.is_anonymous = property(lambda x: CallableBool(real_is_anonymous(x))) return super(AbstractBaseUser, cls).__new__(cls) }}} -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/25847#comment:8> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
