what's the best django profile / user settings application around?

Question

I'm looking for a good django app that brings to me basic features like

• user profile editing
• password changing
• save settings / preferences specific to my app
• save authentication keys to external apps (twitter, rtm, facebook, ...)

I know how to extend the normal user model (see docs http://www.djangobook.com/en/1.0/chapter12/#cn222)

and there are also these apps around:

• django-profile/
• idios (on github)
• django-account/

however, none of them seems to be ideal for what I want. Therefore, my question is, does anyone know a app that is better / more mature / more feature rich that I just didn't find? Or do I have to roll my own app?

does django-userena support custom settings for applications? – Coreencorel

Answer 2

I am sorry to inform you that you will (for now) have to put together a custom solution using django-registration/django-profiles along with django-socialregistration.

Start here with and progress to Socialnetwork Authentication. On the up side, django is young so solid solutions are in the near future and you will be part of them. ;-)
