Hey guys, So I am starting my first django project, we're going to rebuild a site from scratch and migrate the existing users.
But since I am new to django, I wondering what's the best practice for migrating the users. I've been reading the django book about users and registration and also a bit of the docs regarding the auth module. And I am not sure which path to go (I already have my models set up, and can access the legacy user table). By using the auth it seems like I get a lot of interesting functions that will help for registering new users, authenticating users etc. But since my current user table have a lot of fields which is not normal to the auth_user table in django like, city, gender, weight and height. I am not sure if I should mix and match with the auth_user table and insert my columns there along with the users. Or if should keep my current user table strictly away from the auth_user table and then plug in my own auth module. Appreciate any ideas and support, thanks! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
