The user model already had a unique user id! It sounds like you should read through the django documentation http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/ and / or django book http://www.djangobook.com/ There are probably several ways depending on what you want to do exactly. Redirecting users: The standard way to redirect is to return an HttpResponseRedirect from a view. But the authentication system has a few alternatives see http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/authentication/#authentication-in-web-requests and look for the "next" parameter. User Customized pages: The request instance that each view receives has a request.user attribute which is the current user (could be anonymous) see http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/authentication/#users This can be used to customize the view for the user in whatever way you desire. -- Norman J.
