first place to look is here: http://www.djangoproject.com/ documentation/ :)
and for your special case: http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/ authentication/ you can use the admin site for users, of course its not a full blown cms, (it's not supposed to either). but you can add functionality and make changes to the admin interface without hacking django code. and you can set permissions so that all users can log in to the admin interface, but see only the models they have permission to see. if you don't want the admin util at all, no problem. you just create your own "admin" panel as any other django app. cheers, ashley On Feb 1, 11:35 pm, "backdoc" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I made it through the tutorial, finally :). > > Now, I want to attempt my first semi-real project (outside of the > tutorial).
