Installing and using django registration – backends

The package is installed (pip) and migration is clean. Next steps at the documents: Adding to urls at urlpatterns but I get error messages (details below). So I am stacked at the very beginning. As a Django beginner, I would be happy to get some help.

The issues are with "backaends" that exists on the file system (with the required content) but Django can't find it

 

Details:

Ø  The urls added:

urlpatterns = [

    url(r'^accounts/', include('django_registration.backends.activation.urls')), 

    url(r'^accounts/', include('django.contrib.auth.urls')),

.

.

]

o   In here there is an error message (from runserver) ended with:

  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 965, in _find_and_load_unlocked

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'django_registration.backends'

 

Ø  Commenting out the first url out of the two makes the error go away

Ø  Adding (inside url.py prior to urlpattern declaration):

from django_registration import backends

is resulted with the following error message:

ImportError: cannot import name 'backends' from 'django_registration' (C:\Users\yuval\OneDrive\pythonWorkDir\django\tutor1\ybsite\django_registration\__init__.py)

    (I did not think this line is to be added but wanted to see the response…). I commented it out.

 

Ø  This is the case both when in settings.py INSTALLED_APPS I have or don't have the following:

     'django_registration',   # <===== This one is OK

Ø  Trying to add

     'django_registration.backends', 

 #   <===== This one is NOT OK : error message: 

oduleNotFoundError: No module named 'django_registration.backends'

    (I did not think this line is to be added but wanted to see the response…). I commented it out.

 

So now I don't have an error message but also not having Django registration ready to use…
