In addition to user signup and management, which are already covered by other applications, a common need in Django-based sites is the ability to offer a customized user profile which users can fill out and edit, and which -- if desired -- can be viewed by other users.

This application provides a simple, generic, reusable implementation of that functionality, integrating with Django's own supplied method of providing custom profile models and offering fine-grained control over the process of profile creation and editing.

There are two options for downloading; one is to download the latest packaged version (see the green box on the right-hand side of this page) and unpack it; inside is a script called setup.py. Type this command:

python setup.py install

and the package will install automatically.

The other method is to do a Subversion checkout from somewhere on your Python path:

svn checkout http://django-profiles.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/profiles/

Keep in mind, though, that the current code in SVN may be different from the packaged release, may contain bugs and may contain backwards-incompatible changes.

Documentation is available online or in the "docs/" directory of the package.
