Hi all, Just started looking at Django 1.7. I've followed the tutorials on https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/.
However, I find myself in a position where I need to login users based on either email or username, AND NOT just the username. I want my users to register using email addresses. This presents some issues with the standard Django user implementation since the authentication backend is still going to look for the username when logging in. I am keen to know how developers here implement this in their own Django 1.7 projects. And also what user models are preferable: AbstractUser or AbstractBaseUser. Any links to example tutorials will also be greatly appreciated. Regards, Frankline -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
