here is a better version of the code below while it still lasts:
http://dpaste.com/76325/
# the illest issue is right after the except clause. New accounts
should be
# logged in right after creation BUT the new account cannot
immediately log
# in. Whats the issue?
def create(request):
''' create an account if one does not exist else warn users to
handles that
already exists and always offer the option to create a new
account.'''
context = {
'pagetype': 'create user form',
'status_msg': 'create your desired username now'
}
if request.method == 'POST':
username = request.POST['username']
password = request.POST['password']
email = request.POST['email']
try:
User.objects.get(username=username) # must find better method!
context['status_msg'] = 'Sorry that handle already exist'
except ObjectDoesNotExist:
User.objects.create_user(
username=username,
password=password,
email=email,
)
authorized = auth.authenticate(username=username,
password=password)
auth.login(request, authorized) # USER DOES NOT LOG IN!
context['status_msg'] = 'The account was successfully created'
return render('create_user.html', context)
