Upgrade guide¶
The 1.5 release of django-registration-redux is not compatible with the legacy django-registration (previously maintained by James Bennett).
Django version requirement¶
As of 1.5, django-registration-redux requires Django 1.8 or newer; older Django releases may work, but are officially unsupported. Additionally, django-registration-redux officially supports Python 2.7, 3.3, 3.4, and 3.5.
Backwards-incompatible changes¶
Version 1.5¶
- Support for Django 1.7 is removed, and Django 1.8 or newer is required.
Version 1.4¶
- Remove unnecessary _RequestPassingFormView.
See #56. Please
ensure that you update any subclassed views to reference
self.request
instead of acceptingrequest
as an argument.
Version 1.3¶
- Django 1.7 or newer is required. Please ensure you upgrade your Django version before upgrading.
Version 1.2¶
Native migration support breaks South compatibility: An initial native migration for Django > 1.7 has been provided. South users will need to configure a null migration with (SOUTH_MIGRATION_MODULES) in settings.py as shown below:
SOUTH_MIGRATION_MODULES = { 'registration': 'registration.south_migrations',
register method in RegistrationView has different parameters: The parameters of the`register` method in RegistrationView have changed.
Version 1.1¶
- base.html template required: A base.html template is now assumed to exist. Please ensure that your project provides one for django-registration-redux to inherit from.
- HTML email templates: django-registration-redux now uses HTML email templates. If you previously customized text email templates, you need to do the same with the new HTML templates.
