Comment (by Darshan Singh Khalsa):
Thanks for your suggestion. I added the code snippets you suggested and
put the @python_2_unicode_compatible decorator in front of each models.py
occurrence of the def __unicode__(self): section. Running the Python3 test
version of the live app with these changes resulted in no difference,
"Member object" still appears in the employer and customer picklist
fields. I thought perhaps I should migrate to see if the code edits would
apply, but got many errors. Probably due to my not working with the test
code for several months and having so many different versions while
tinkering to overcome the "Member object" issue.
I internationalized my Python2 live app last year and had to overcome many
tricky Unicode issues related to translation into multiple foreign
languages and writing downloads of data files containing Unicode
characters. Had to rewrite quite a bit of code to get the app running in
Python3, so once I get everything working properly in Python3, there is no
going back. This bug report's issue has been the main obstacle to moving
to Python3.
I have a concern that using a Py2-Py3 compatible decorator as you
recommend may drag me back towards Python2 and all of its Unicode
inadequacies. I will have to read up on the decorator you recommended as
well as read about __str__ instead of __Unicode__ in my Python3 models.py.
