Thanks again, Rajesh. That worked. Below is my rudimentary userinfo tag:
from django.template import Library, Node
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
register = Library()
def user_info(context):
"""
Get user information
"""
request = context['request']
if request.user.is_authenticated():
# Do something for authenticated users.
user = request.user
else:
# Do something for anonymous users.
user = None
return {'current_user': user,}
register.inclusion_tag('user_info.html', takes_context=True)(user_info)
I guess one thing to remember is to always use RequestContext
