Hi Carl, I've done just what you spelled out, I think, but I don't see any change in the Home › Auth › Users admin panel. When editing the individual users, I can edith the fields that are part of the built-in User model, but not of the profile model. Here is the code: http://dpaste.de/OHwA/ Here is the relevant part: -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= class UserProfileInline(admin.TabularInline): model = QotdUser fk_name = 'user' max_num = 1 list_display = ('identifier', 'service', 'location', 'featured_status',) list_filter = ('featured_status', 'service',) search_fields = ('identifier',) exclude = ('alternate_id', 'questions_proposed_cnt', 'questions_published_cnt', 'answers_cnt') class MyUserAdmin(UserAdmin): inlines = [UserProfileInline, ] admin.site.unregister(User) admin.site.register(User, MyUserAdmin) -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Am I missing a class there?
