I am on a django project where I want to be sending different work to each of my employees from the admin page, but no one will see other people's work, each person will see their own work in their profile page...
Can anyone please assist me on what I should do...
You have to override the get_queryset in work modelAdmin and filter objects with any request user till see user your works.
Also You can read django permission doc for another way handling this issue
I'm still a complete newbie on Django, so now I'm a little bit lost on what I could do to structure my server to suit my needs.
The situation is like this: my Django admin could be accessed by the admin and multiple users. Each user can add multiple item to the server, and the server will only allow them to retrieve, modify and delete item added by them and not the other users. They will also have some custom option they can pick: like receiving notifications through emails or another channels. Meanwhile, admin can see all items, and have a filter to see all items added by one user and all users's custom option.
Any help would be appreciated.
take a look here. this is where i started with custom user models. https://wsvincent.com/django-custom-user-model-tutorial/
Django has builtin user models with basic fields like username email and password and authentication. The above link will help you create custom user models and it will be a good place to start
I just want to know if its possible to add a custom button like 'Like'/'Share'/'Comment' in Facebook's newsfeed.
I wanna add an action like 'Mark as unread' to Posts appearing on the user's newsfeed, so that the user can check them out later.
I found this browser add-on : http://socialfixer.com
So this enables certain functions on a user's newsfeed. I was wondering if this could be achieved through a Facebook app, without the help of a browser add-on.
Thanks :)
I have a problem. I created an app in FB and then with that app I created a like button. FB says that I should see an admin link next to my like button on my website when I am logged in.
I have fb:app_id and fb:admins set up in meta, still I don'see the link. I would need it for two reason.
One is to acces the admin of the page so I can send messages for people who liked my site, also I want to set up a fanpage and once I could access the admin of the website likes according to the facebook documentation I could turn it into a fan page (FB page) this way not loosing the likes.
Thanks in advance
That functionality is deprecated, there's a migration guide on Facebook's developer site explaining how to move your OG pages to regular pages if you want to maintain part of that functionality
Either my google searching has completely left me or there's hardly any documentation/tutorials for django-socialregistration. Too bad, because it seems like a nice enough app. Through some trial-and-error, I have managed to get it mostly running on my site.
My question, using django-socialregistration how do I request permission for the facebook user's full name, current city and date of birth and store it in my UserProfile table (which is my AUTH_PROFILE_MODULE for django-profiles) in Django upon registration? Also, how do I post to the user's wall from Django once the connection is made?
Currently, when I click the "Connect with Facebook" button the facebook connection is made, a new Django user is created and the user is logged in with that Django account. However, no UserProfile is created and no facebook profile data is saved.
Any facebook connect gurus out there want to help the Django pony fly to Facebookland?
Setup:
- Django 1.2.1
- Python 2.5.2
- django-socialregistration 0.4.2
- django-registration 0.7
- django-profiles 0.2
"Kind sir, can you please help me find the magical Facebookland?"
In facebook_js.html you need to adjust the following line, by uncommenting items that you need to get from FB:
FB.login(handleResponse/*,{perms:'publish_stream,sms,offline_access,email,read_stream,status_update,etc'}*/);
Then, in FacebookMiddleware you can extract that data from fb_user, like this:
facebook.GraphAPI(fb_user['access_token']).get_object('me')
FWIW, I just found this moderately helpful nugget from the app author buried in the "Issues" section on github:
question from "tolano":
I have a profile model associated with the users, and everytime the user is created the profile should be created also. Should we create a new custom setup view for this purpose?
I'm finding several problems because the documentation is poor. Thank you very much.
answer from "flashingpumpkin":
Yes. Ideally you'll overwrite the setup view with your own. An easier method to adjust what is done on user creation is to pass a custom form into the setup view. You'll do that by overriding the standard url.
Here's another relevant nugget (source: http://github.com/flashingpumpkin/django-socialregistration/issues/closed#issue/7) Enough of these and this page will become the de facto django-socialregistration documentation ;)
question from "girasquid":
Maybe I'm just missing something, but I'm stuck here - is there a way to 'connect' accounts on other sites to an already-existing user?
For example, I've already signed up on Really Awesome Website, so I don't need to sign up again - but I'd like to connect my Facebook and Twitter accounts so that I can sign in with those as well.
Is there a way to do this already? If there isn't...how would I do it?
answer from "flashingpumpkin":
Yes there is. Just use the same template tags for Facebook Connect as you would for registration. Depending on if the user is already logged in or not it will create just the FacebookProfile object and link it to the existing user - or create both, the User object and the FacebookProfile object.
