Re: Username same as user id

Of course there is :
on the view which responds to your registration form (likely to be where
you call authenticate) - you simply test if the username field has been
set when the registration is posted - and if not set it to be whatever
you want.

Or - in your custom backend you can do the same thing; basically you
have code like this :

if not username:
    username = random_digits()

where random_digits is a function you write to generate your random user
name/number.

Remember you will need to tell the user what number you have chosen for
them.

This isn't really a Django issue to be honest - it is simply code.
