Re: UserProfile.user" must be a "User" instance. django-registration

Hi Sunny


I am creating a sign up link in this case.

When i place @login_required decorator it directs me to home page.I am applying django-registration app.
After pre-registration mail is sent to the email address and then it redirects back (success_url) to this completingprofile.

AUTH_PROFILE_MODULE is correct.

Hey Nikhil,

You can check a couple of things here:

1. Have you made sure that the user is logged in? You can do this by adding @login_required decorator to the  completingprofile view. (This is the most likely reason)

2. Instead of ForeignKey, make user field as OneToOneField. (but I am pretty sure this does not cause any problem)

3. Check that AUTH_PROFILE_MODULE variable is set in your settings.
