Question

I have a model in an app named user_profile like so:

from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth.models import User

class UserProfile(models.Model):
    user = models.OneToOneField(User)

    def __unicode__(self):
        return self.user.username

and in my settings:

AUTH_PROFILE_MODULE = 'user_profile.UserProfile'

But if I try:

u = UserProfile.objects.get(pk=1)
p = u.get_profile()

I get the following error:

AttributeError: 'UserProfile' object has no attribute 'get_profile'

What am I missing here?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Er, you’re trying to get the user profile of a UserProfile. I expect you mean to get a User, then call get_profile() on that.
