It's not 'cached'. A user's logged-in status is identified via their session cookie, which is sent to the server on every request and processed via the authentication middleware. However, I suspect your problem is simpler. Are you sure you are passing the request, or the user, to the second template? It would help if you posted the code for the relevant view and template. -- DR. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
