and related to this:
if your django site needs to be running at someplace besides '/' (say
for a beta installation or a subsite)
then permalinks and reverse will work correctly,
but user.get_absolute_url() will not
it will return
/user/username/
rather than
/subsite/user/username/
so,
def _user_get_absolute_url(user):
from django.core.urlresolvers import reverse
return reverse('account',kwargs={'username':user.username})
ABSOLUTE_URL_OVERRIDES = {
'auth.user' : _user_get_absolute_url
}
