First of all, thanks for this awsome tool. I love it! Just discoverd it last Friday and I already build a rocking application that will go live soon. After having years of experience building web pages and also 3 years of Python I was almost ready to switch to RoR but always go stuck learing Ruby then I discovered web2py by accident and I am hooked Thanks Thanks Thanks.
But to buissness: I followed http://www.web2py.com/examples/default/tools#authentication to customize my auth_user table First of all there is a mistake in the code for # define custom tables instead of self.settings.table_user_name it should read auth.settings.table_user_name Second I wanted to delete first_name and last_name to replace it by just name however this is not possible (discovered another posting about that later), it would be nice if this would be stated in the docu i just linked above. After reverting back to the original auth_user I thought I could just hide the last_name and auto fill it with db.auth_user.last_name.default = 'A' db.auth_user.last_name.readable = False db.auth_user.last_name.writable = False but this does not work ... Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/select/Dev/web2py/gluon/restricted.py", line 178, in restricted exec ccode in environment File "/home/select/Dev/web2py/applications/frisur/controllers/ default.py", line 80, in <module> File "/home/select/Dev/web2py/gluon/globals.py", line 102, in <lambda> self._caller = lambda f: f() File "/home/select/Dev/web2py/applications/frisur/controllers/ default.py", line 59, in user return dict(form=auth()) File "/home/select/Dev/web2py/gluon/tools.py", line 481, in __call__ return self.register() File "/home/select/Dev/web2py/gluon/tools.py", line 938, in register % form.vars KeyError: 'last_name' I guess I can create a custom form or overwrite the table (?? which is the best), but I wonder why the above does not work. Hope you can help thanks so far, you really are the bomb --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
