I'm subclassing django.contrib.auth.models.User to create a custom user type (Student) with extra fields, following http://scottbarnham.com/blog/2008/08/21/extending-the-django-user-model-with-inheritance/. (Is there no documentation on djangoproject.org on how to do this?) Some relevant snippets of code: http://pastie.org/1721216
I've create a Student and given the account "staff" status, to be able to log in to the admin interface. The Student can't log in there, however. When i create a User in the same way, that User can log in. Also i noticed the password is saved unhashed: i can read the password i typed from the edit form. Password reset form doesn't work: http://pastie.org/1721206 Another thing i noticed: adding a Student also ads a User, but removing the Student doesn't remove the User. What am i doing wrong?
