When a User uses an email as the Username the reverse for view fails. But when I change the username to a non-email username using admin panel, it works great. I have searched a lot but couldn't find similar issue.
My User Model:
class CustomUser(AbstractUser): date_joined = models.DateField(auto_now_add=True) email = models.EmailField(unique=True) def __str__(self): return self.username View responsible:
class UserUpdateView(SuccessMessageMixin, LoginRequiredMixin, UpdateView): template_name = "accounts/user_update.html" form_class = UserChangingForm model = CustomUser slug_field = 'username' slug_url_kwarg = 'username' success_message = '%(username)s was updated successfully' def get_success_url(self): return reverse('accounts:user_update', kwargs={'username': self.object.username}) Urls.py:
from . import views from django.contrib.auth import views as authViews app_name = 'accounts' urlpatterns = { path('signup/', views.UserSignupView.as_view(), name='signup'), path('login/', views.UserLoginView.as_view(), name='login'), path('logout/', authViews.LogoutView.as_view(), name='logout'), path('<slug:username>/profile/', views.UserUpdateView.as_view(), name='user_update'),} The error in template is thrown by: Error message:
NoReverseMatch at /
Reverse for 'user_update' with arguments '('[email protected]',)' not found. 1 pattern(s) > tried: ['accounts/(?P[-a-zA-Z0-9_]+)/profile/$']
I am thinking of preventing users from using special character in Username field while signup. Where am I wrong?
