Question

I’ve tried Django-registration, see this tutorial to create a full Login-system.

In the tutorials (see STEP 4), I need to update the file urls.py to:

from django.conf.urls.defaults import *
from django.views.generic.simple import direct_to_template
from django.contrib import admin
admin.autodiscover()

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    (r'^admin/(.*)', admin.site.root),
    (r'^accounts/', include('registration.urls')),
    (r'^$', direct_to_template,
            { 'template': 'index.html' }, 'index'),
)

But when I do this, the Admin page is not available. When I chance

(r'^admin/(.*)', admin.site.root)

in

(r'^admin/(.*)', admin.site.urls)

The adminpage works; I could login, but I couldn’t click on anything… So I couldn’t see the registered users.

What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

You have to use:

(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls))

See the documentation.
