I've replaced the use of ForeignKey as mentioned above for models.ForeignKey(settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL).
But I still get the following syncdb errors. *************************************************************************************************************************** CommandError: One or more models did not validate: admin.logentry: 'user' has a relation with model books.user, which has either not been installed or is abstract. auth.user: Model has been swapped out for 'books.user' which has not been installed or is abstract. registration.registrationprofile: 'user' has a relation with model books.user, which has either not been installed or is abstract. *************************************************************************************************************************** Any advice appreciated. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
