Not very sure about what you mean, because I'm new to Django. I did see a django snippet about this. But it seems only deal with login. How about sign up? Because you said I can not mke username not unique, what I should do is fill email in both username and email field in contrib.auth.models.User, and add one more field for user name? Is this possible?
Thank you very much.
