Customizing an Admin form in Django while also using autodiscover

Question

I want to modify a few tiny details of Django\'s built-in django.contrib.auth module. Specifically, I want a different form that makes username an email field

Answer 1

I think it might be easier to do this with a custom auth backend and thus remove the need for a customized ModelAdmin.

I did something similar with this snippet: http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/74/
