Hello, I'm in the design stages of a site that I'm building. It is going to be a basic social media site for a game I'm designing in unity. I'm not entirely sure how to do some of the things I want to in Django. Thus, my first question is generally best practices question as well as a how do I do this question.
Qustion #1: How do I set up my models field so that when a user uploads an image to a filefield it attaches the users name to the file that is being uploaded? Should I do this in the view or in the database? Question #2: Examine my model design and tell me what I can do better, if I'm missing anything etc. I'm new to django so go easy. I didn't do the def and functions and class stuff just the over all structure. If it would be better if I posted that let me know and I will. Question#3 How do I make the page when a user logs in resolve to his username, and how do I use the username as the url so when you click on a list of friends it uses that friends username as the url for their profile and resolves to thier page, a quick overview on the best way to do this would be just fine. Just point me and kinda explain the theory and I'm sure I can figure out the rest. Please just help me think of things I need to worry about design with django im just starting and I dont have a good base to go on.
