user.get_profile() does in fact return the custom profile object.
The problem is that the custom profile object is either
contact.Contact or myApp.myProfile. Never are both accessible.
The way I was most hopeful about was to extend the Contact model with
class myProfile(models.Model):
contact = models.ForeignKey(User, unique=True)
otherInfo = models.CharField()
AUTH_PROFILE_MODULE = "myApp.myProfile"
But with that setup
User.objects.get(pk=1).get_profile()
errors out with "Cannot resolve keyword 'user' into field. Choices
are: contact, id, otherInfo"
And if I change to
AUTH_PROFILE_MODULE = "contact.Contact"
user.get_profile().industry
errors out with "'Contact' object has no attribute 'industry'"
and
user.get_profile().myProfile
errors out with "'Contact' object has no attribute 'myProfile'
Am I wrong to think that it's possible to have contact.Contact and
myapp.myProfile accessible through user.get_profile()?
