My personal preference is to just create a new model class with a ForeignKey
field pointing to the User model with unique=True set. That way you can extend
the User object in as many different apps as you want. For instance in a forum
app you could have a model tracking the number of posts a use

instead. That is the correct method to determine whether a URL was requested
using the POST method.

This should be pretty easy to do.
All you need is to define some models for your customized templates and then
the user can configure the styling within the Django admin.

I can write a unit test which checks say the title on a page and compares it to
a string but that is really prone to breakage. What I want to do instead is to
check that the template that is returned by the URL is the same one that is
expected in the unit test. Is there an easy way to do this?

Hi,
I have a strange issue that affects the latest stable version of Firefox and

I have a register user template with a form which works well but I have a
problem where there is lots of other text next to the form elements such as
password length and what characters need to go in a password. Is their a
reasonable way to hide that text or do I need to do it with JavaScript?
I've been scratching my head over this one.
