Hi Todd. I guess what you are looking for is: u = User.objects.get(username='namehere')
but you could also: 1) fire the shell (cd to your project dir) then: python manage.py shell from django.contrib.auth.models import User dir(User) or dir(User,objetcts.all()[0]) 2) on the admin site, on the top bar there's a "Documentation" link (mut have docutils installed ) this is very usefull for newbies, I use it all the time. As a side bonus you get to see ForeignKey and ManyToMany methods also. 3) checkout the source itself, since you are using this sintax you're probably using magic-removal, then you can see the python module in : django/contrib/auth/models.py arthur --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
