Hi Massimo,
I will try to explain better, posting the annotated code below.
I want to define the *auth_user* in a module and configure it as:
==============================================================
Configuration
==============================================================
db.auth_user.first_name.writable = db.auth_user.first_name.readable
= False
db.auth_user.last_name.writable = db.auth_user.last_name.readable
=False
# get rid of "please input your password again"
auth.messages.verify_password_comment = ''
==============================================================
e.g. to not show the first, last name and to not see "verify password".
*
*
I am using to custom import Main in *user(). *Main executes *common_services
* which executes *init_auth*, which
executes *define_auth*, where *auth_user* is defined and should be
configured (Configuration). Configuration do not works
in *define_auth, *but works in* **init_auth *in the code below. I believe
the code in *define_auth * called in *init_auth as "*self.*auth_def*()
#the auth definition", never executes so I have to do it in *init_auth.*
*
*
*Regards,*
