My guess is that I could send a POST request to /login, but that would fail because of the csrf token. Maybe I'm missing some kind of theoretical background, but I would like to know what's the correct way to achieve this. Backgr...

I'm trying to work with a set of django models in an external script. I'm querying the database at a preset interval to get the items that meet the query. When my external script is processing them, it takes a while and I may get the same results in the query if the processing hasn't updated the model yet. I figured I could use a set ...

Hi, I'm using the inline-app from Django-Basic-Apps for inserting images in Blogposts. But in some templates I don't want the images to appear. It's not enough to just not render them, I don't even want the inline-code to be in the html. Is there a way to delete the inline-code with a filter? I tried to use the "|cut" filter, but its jus...
I like to normalize things the most I can in a database. This isn't obviously the best thing for performance, but it helps with flexibility, reporting, etc. I've found it hard to justify in a recent case though which has caused me to build a model that has 25 fields in it. Is this "too big"? Or, is that quite normal. Of course the obviou...

I'm trying to set up memcached on a django project on which I'm using the i18n internationalization system. Sadly, it looks that memcached is not caching different versions of the same page according to the language. In facts, when I switch language, it gets the previous cached page, without caring about the language switch. I'm using...
