hmm, if we sign the session id with it yes, but I am not sure that's done for the normal session

sessionid is just a random string from a first glance

apollo13: I tried overwriting the delete method of my UserProfile model , with a def delete that included "self.avatar.delete()" before passing to the super, but still the jpeg remains on disk even after going from user profile

fpghost84: and is your overridden save method actually getting called?

or could it be a permission error?

CollinAnderson: I overwrote the delete method not the save method, maybe that is the problem....but no the delete method is not being called anyway as the print DEBUG I put does not show

CollinAnderson: maybe I should override save method of my UserProfile model instead? What is the test I would need to find if Clear checkbox is ticked though

hah. yeah. that's tricky

uhm, I fail, self.avatar will be None, so you can't call delete on it after all I think

let me check the source

fpghost84: I think you'll have to handle this on the form level

interesting django select_for_update() gotca, if you stupidly put your filter conditions in the brackets they're ignored and all objects returned. (eg: select_for_update(id=1))

apollo13: ok, what would you suggest?

apollo13: regarding the overriding models save or delete, I can confirm that if I override save, then my debug prints gets called, but overriding delete does not do anything ( I suppose because it's not the userprofile being deleted just the avatar)

yes

apollo13: but what should I override etc etc doing it on the forms level?

apollo13: clean?

dunno out of my head, you probably want to override the form, then clean and save

save the old storage path in clean and delete in save

that's how I probably would do it, but the code is somewhat odd in that area and it's getting late here :)

time for bed :þ

apollo13: how would I detemine if clear check box ticked though

apollo13: haha ok, thanks for help

Trying to override AllAuth templates with my own, but am not succeeding. What can be the problem?

I've copied the templates to my projects/templates/accounts/, but the original templates in site-packages are still taking priority.

Morto: do you have your templates path setup in your settings.py file? https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/templ...

Yes, other templates work fine

Morto: What's the path to one of your templates that you expect it override?

fpghost84: yeah, i was going to suggest overriding the form too (which isn't trivial in the first place), but yeah, you'd probably need to look at the source of "clearablefileinput"

tbaxter, chucksmash, wOrp: thanks

CollinAnderson: I also came across this post : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5372934/how-...

Morto: some of the templates are in "registration" if that's the issue

CollinAnderson, seems to be doing what I want to do, but it doesn't work for me, nor do any print DEBUGS show in console

is it safe to put session data directly into a django modelmanager's filter parameters?

CollinAnderson, it's like the delete isn't even triggering, yet the user profile pic sure enough goes blank

Thanks for help, the issue seemed to be me typing 'accounts' instead of 'accounts' :)

Model.objects.filter(related_model=self.request.session.related_model) <--- can you hack your way out of this?

Took about 2 hours to get that right...

any reason why 'def select_for_update(self, **kwargs):' takes kwargs instead of the one arg it actually uses?

CollinAnderson, it's really odd because if in the shell, I get my user with a userprofile like: a_user=UserProfile.objects.all()[0]

CollinAnderson, then do a_user.avatar.delete(), both file and profile are gone
