Sergiy Some of your points cover my old code (which was very much a first draft). This is the updated version:
class home(DetailView): context_object_name = 'profile' template_name = 'view_profile.html' def get_context_data(self, **kwargs): context = super(home, self).get_context_data(**kwargs) u_ct = ContentType.objects.get_for_model(get_user_model()).id context.update({ 'profile_ct': u_ct, }) return context def get_queryset(self): self.kwargs['pk'] = self.kwargs.get('pk', self.request.user.id) UserModel = get_user_model() profile = UserModel.objects.filter(pk=self.kwargs['pk']) return profile Every user will have a profile so there "shouldn't" be a reason for the: profile = UserModel.objects.filter(pk=self.kwargs['pk']) to fail. If you can help I'd be grateful but I think the above is better. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
