So, I am trying to create a user page, and its url will be associated with its username, something like this
http://domain.com/accounts/profile/robin/ And in that page, I want all the photo's uploaded by that user (here 'robin') to be displayed in the template. And another thing is, in the menu bar, there's an link for the the profile page for the request.user, i.e. the logged in user, suppose the user is 'kevin', and it will also direct it to the request.user's url like: http://domain.com/accounts/profile/kevin/ Somehow I managed to get the desired output. But what I also wanted was that, even if I change the url to something different other than the request.user's name, I wanted the request.user and the other username to be differentiated easily, so that I can manipulate them in the templates. And so I hopefully came with this solution. But I really don't know that this is an appropriate solution. Because what if I change the username to something other than the request.user and come up with all its information. Please help me if there's any better way to do it. And feel free to ask me if you didn't understand the question. Any suggestion will be much appreciated!
