I am using django-registration, and have two questions with regards to customizing the email sent after a user has requested to reset his password.
This is what I currently have in password_reset_email.html:
{% load i18n %}
{% blocktrans %} Please click the link below to change your password:
{% endblocktrans %}
{% block reset_link %}{{ domain }}{% url auth_password_reset_confirm uidb36=uid, token=token %}
Thanks,
Mysite
{% endblock %}
And in my settings.py:
DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL = 'Mysite'
I have two questions --
1) Currently the email is from Mysite, with return address 'Mysite'. How do I make it so it appears as Mysite, but the return address is 'Mysite#no-reply.com'?
2) Currently the subject of the email says 'Password reset on Mysite'How/where do I change the subject of the reset-password email?
1) You should change your email setting to DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL = 'Mysite <Mysite#no-reply.com>'
2) The last I checked, this was not changeable. django-registration has the subject line hardcoded.
EDIT:
Correction: The password reset subject line is set by Django's PasswordResetFormnot django-registration.
You can change the subject of the email in your <...>templates/registration/activation_email_subject.txt
Make sure that file exists, then put in it whatever you want.
Also, your email should be "no-reply#mysite.com" instead of mysite#no-replay.com.

I am creating a web app where users are allowed to post stuffs and i have a profile section where i want users to see the stuffs they have posted so i am using IF loop in django.
{% if user_post.author == "request.user.username" %}
hello there {{user_post.title}}
{% else %}
againnn
{{user_post.author}}
{{request.user.username}}
{% endif%}
here in the if loop i am checking for all the authors and comparing them with the user logged in.
but it is not executing, in the else part i am confirming names of the user . but the else part is executing.
i am not sure if it can be done this way..if not please suggest me a way
thanks
how about change the codes.
{% if user_post.author == "request.user.username" %}
to
{% if user_post.author == request.user.username %}
I've built a password reset function for a django system that is exposed through a tastypie api. The rendering process looks like this
form = PasswordResetForm({'email': reset_email})
form.full_clean()
form.save({
'use_https': request.is_secure(),
'token_generator': default_token_generator,
'from_email': settings.DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL,
'email_template_name': 'registration/password_reset_email.html',
'request': request
})
return self.create_response(request, { 'success': True })
I've used the standard Django password reset email template. When I call the endpoint, the http request gets rendered in some of the custom tags e.g
Markup:
{% trans "Please go to the following page and choose a new password:" %}
{% block reset_link %}
{{ protocol }}://{{ domain }}{% url 'django.contrib.auth.views.password_reset_confirm' uidb36=uid token=token %}
{% endblock %}
{% trans "Your username, in case you've forgotten:" %} {{ user.get_username }}
Expected result:
Please go to the following page and choose a new password:
httt://www.myurl.com/password-reset
"Your username, in case you've forgotten: User Name
Actual result
Please go to the following page and choose a new password:
httt://{'request': , POST:, COOKIES:{}, META:{'CONTENT_LENGTH': '48', (...)
"Your username, in case you've forgotten: User Name
It strikes me as odd that the model based template tags render correctly, but the global ones (e.g. 'Site_name') and the reset url & token seem to break. I'm sure that's a good clue as to the cause of the problem, but I don't know where to go next.
Would be great if anyone can help.
Thanks
How can i get the current user in a django template tags? (request object is not accessible)
Or how can i access to request object?
If you want to access the current user in a template tag, you must pass it as a parameter in the templates, like so:
{% my_template_tag user %}
Then make sure your template tag accepts this extra parameter. Check out the documentation on this topic. You should also check out simple tags.
The user is always attached to the request, in your templates you can do the following:
{% if user.is_authenticated %}
{% endif %}
You don't have to specify "request" to access its content
UPDATE:
Be aware: is_authenticated() always return True for logged user (User objects), but returns False for AnonymousUser (guest users). Read here: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/ref/contrib/auth/
This question was already answered here:
{% if user.is_authenticated %}
<p> Welcome '{{ user.username }}'</p>
{% else %}
Login
{% endif %}
and make sure you have the request template context processor installed in your settings.py:
TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = (
...
'django.core.context_processors.request',
...
)
Note:
Use request.user.get_username() in views & user.get_username in
templates. Preferred over referring username attribute directly.
Source
This template context variable is available if a RequestContext is used.
django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth is enabled by default & contains the variable user
You do NOT need to enable django.core.context_processors.request template context processor.
Source : https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/auth/default/#authentication-data-in-templates
Suppose you have a profile page of every registered user, and you only want to show the edit link to the owner of the profile page (i.e., if the current user is accessing his/her profile page, the user can see the edit button, but the user can't see the edit button on other user's profile page.
In your html file:
<h2>Profile of {{ object.username }}</h2>
{% if object.username == user.username %}
Edit
{% endif %}
Then your urls.py file should contain:
from django.urls import path
from .views import ProfileUpdateView
urlpatterns = [
...
path('<int:pk>/profile/update', ProfileUpdateView.as_view(), name = 'profile_update'),
...
]
considering you have appropriate ProfileUpdateView and appropriate model
In my website, I want to let the admins reset the password of any user.
With reset I mean exactly what the password_reset view does (under contrib.auth): Send a confirmation link to that user email.
How would be the best way of doing that? Is there an already app/snippet that does that?
Edit:
Let's suppose user john is an admin. What I want is to let john reset any user's password through the admin interface. For example, to reset max password, he will just go to the max user, and click on any link to reset his password.
What I finally did was to add a custom ModelAdmin:
from django.contrib.auth.forms import PasswordResetForm
from django.contrib.auth.admin import UserAdmin
class CustomUserAdmin(UserAdmin):
...
def reset_password(self, request, user_id):
if not self.has_change_permission(request):
raise PermissionDenied
user = get_object_or_404(self.model, pk=user_id)
form = PasswordResetForm(data={'email': user.email})
form.is_valid()
form.save(email_template_name='my_template.html')
return HttpResponseRedirect('..')
def get_urls(self):
urls = super(UserAdmin, self).get_urls()
my_urls = patterns('',
(r'^(\d+)/reset-password/$',
self.admin_site.admin_view(self.reset_password)
),
)
return my_urls + urls
and I also had to override the change_form.html template, like this:
{% extends "admin/change_form.html" %}
{% load i18n %}
{% block object-tools %}
{% if change %}{% if not is_popup %}
<ul class="object-tools">
{# You can also give a name to that pattern and refer to it below using 'url' #}
<li>Reset password</li>
<li>{% trans "History" %}</li>
{% if has_absolute_url %}
<li><a href="../../../r/{{ content_type_id }}/{{ object_id }}/" class="viewsitelink">
{% trans "View on site" %}</a>
</li>
{% endif%}
</ul>
{% endif %}{% endif %}
{% endblock %}
The result looks like this:
If you want a more detailed explanation, I blogged about it.
The passreset app just exposes the django views via urls.py, and adjusts the login template to show a "Forgot my password" link.
The built-in django password reset views and templates are meant for self-reset. I guess the reset form could be prepopulated with a different user's email address (in the query string) but you'd still need to make adjustments such as changing the email template - "You're receiving this e-mail because you requested a password reset for your user account" is probably not what you want:
https://code.djangoproject.com/browser/django/trunk/django/contrib/admin/templates/registration/password_reset_email.html
Therefore you should expose the views at different URLs if you want to include self-reset as well.
Hook the django views into urls.py like so:
urlpatterns += patterns('django.contrib.auth.views',
url(r'^accounts/password/reset/$',
'password_reset',
name='password-reset'),
url(r'^accounts/password/reset/done/$',
'password_reset_done',
name='password-reset-done'),
url(r'^accounts/password/reset/confirm/(?P<uidb36>[-\w]+)/(?P<token>[-\w]+)/$',
'password_reset_confirm',
name='password-reset-confirm'),
url(r'^accounts/password/reset/complete/$',
'views.password_reset_complete',
name='password-reset-complete')
)
and where you want to make adjustments, pass in e.g. your own email template:
url(r'^/accounts/password/reset/$',
'password_reset',
{'email_template_name': 'my_templates/password_reset_email.html'}
name='password-reset'),
The "password_reset" view has more parameters you can tweak:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/auth/#module-django.contrib.auth.views
("post_reset_redirect" comes to mind as another one for your purposes)
To show a corresponding link you'd either change the User admin (careful, already registered - unregister then register your own, subclassed plus additional link field) or the change_form template itself.
I'm unaware of an app that provides this out-of-the-box, so I upvoted the question :-).
Yep, there is an app for that. Check here:

If I want to have django app called app1 which can make a user post note to someone's page and to his/her own page.
And if the user is logged in ,no need using username in the url, but the username parameter in url can be acts as parent in urlconf.
To make it clear:
urls.py
urlpatterns = patterns(''
#if registered user/anonymous user visit someone's page
url(r'^/foo/users/(?P<username>\w+)/app1/',include('app1.urls', namespace='myapp1')),
#if user is logged in in his own page
url(r'^app1/', include('app1.urls', namespace='myapp1')),
...
)
app1/urls.py
urlpatterns = patterns('',
# I expect this pattern receives the username parameter from above
url(r'^note/add/$', app1_views.add_note,
name='add_note'),
url(r'^note/add/$', app1_views.add_note,
{ 'username':None}, name='add_note_own'),
...
...
)
app1/views.py
def add_note(request, username=None):
...
...
First question:
Now for example john is logged in and on jack's notes page john want to post a note.
I want to be able to do something like this or near something like this:
template app1/notes.html
{% if request.user.is_authenticated %}
{%if in his/her own note page %}
add note Expected generated url: www.domain.com/app1/add
{%else}
add note Expected generated url: www.domain.com/foo/jack/app1/add
{%endif%}
{% endif %}
Is this possible?
Another thing,
if john wrote note in jack's page, and django gives the note id == 3,
so to show that note, only these urls are valid:
www.example.com/foo/jack/app1/3
www.example.com/foo/app1/3 (if jack logged in)
Second question:
what I want to achieve is reverse match can accept captured parameter up to to the
parent urlconf when include() is involved in url configuration.
Can this be done?
Or if you get what I mean and can provide simpler solution , please do so :)
sorry if this post is confusing, I am confused myself.
Thanks alot for the patience.
I'm using django 1.2.5
you need to pass an username, one example can be:
urlpatterns = patterns('',
# I expect this pattern receives the username parameter from above
url(r'^note/add/(?P<username>[^/]+)/$', app1_views.add_note, name='add_note'),
# username is an optional argument, so no need to pass it
url(r'^note/add/$', app1_views.add_note, name='add_note_own'),
)
and then in template:
{% if request.user.is_authenticated %}
{% if page.owner == request.user %}
add note
{% else %}
add note to {{ request.user.username }}
{% endif %}
{% endif %}
