Django - User, UserProfile, and Admin

I'm trying to get the Django Admin interface to display information about my profile. It displays all of my users but no profile information. I'm not quite sure how to get it to work.

I found this code after a quick google search:

from auth.models import UserProfile
from django.contrib import admin
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django.contrib.auth.admin import UserAdmin

admin.site.unregister(User)

class UserProfileInline(admin.StackedInline):
    model = UserProfile

class UserProfileAdmin(UserAdmin):
    inlines = [UserProfileInline]

admin.site.register(User, UserProfileAdmin)

However, I don't think that it worked. When I log into the admin page, I see Users, Groups, and Sites. I click Users and I see a list of all of my Users, but no indication of any profile. Clicking on a user shows me info about that user, but still no profile information.

If it will help, here is my model declaration:

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

class UserProfile(models.Model):
    company = models.CharField(max_length=30)
    user = models.ForeignKey(User, unique=True)

And my registration code:

def register(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        uf = UserForm(request.POST)
        upf = UserProfileForm(request.POST)
        if uf.is_valid() and upf.is_valid():
            user = uf.save()
            userprofile = upf.save(commit=False)#need to get the user profile object first
            userprofile.user = user #then set the user to user
            userprofile.save() #then save to the database
            return HttpResponseRedirect('/auth/login/')
    else:
        uf = UserForm()
        upf = UserProfileForm()
    return render_to_response('register.html', dict(userform=uf,use开发者_JAVA百科rprofileform=upf),context_instance=RequestContext(request))

I can't see exactly what's wrong, but here's a slightly simpler example that I know works. Put this is any working admin.py. Try adding a trailing comma to your inline-- some things break without it.

from django.contrib import admin
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django.contrib.auth.admin import UserAdmin
from accounts.models import UserProfile

admin.site.unregister(User)

class UserProfileInline(admin.StackedInline):
    model = UserProfile

class UserProfileAdmin(UserAdmin):
    inlines = [ UserProfileInline, ]

admin.site.register(User, UserProfileAdmin)

This is not exactly an answer to your question BUT, according to Django Admin documentation, you can display information from UserProfile in your User "table". And you can make it searchable.

That would look something like this (modifying answer from C. Alan Zoppa):

class UserProfileAdmin(UserAdmin):
    inlines = [ UserProfileInline, ]
    def company(self, obj):
        try:
            return obj.get_profile().company
        except UserProfile.DoesNotExist:
            return ''
    list_display = UserAdmin.list_display + ('company',)
    search_fields = UserAdmin.search_fields + ('userprofile__company',)

You might have an issue though with search if your profile class is no longer called UserProfile.

The missing comma shouldn't matter. I suspect the problem is that you added a new admin.py but the development server didn't recognize it. If you restart the development server, it'll see the new file.
