So what is WebApp? It's not recognized as app with migrations
rotund hedge
INSTALLED_APPS = [
'WebApp',
'django.contrib.admin',
'django.contrib.auth',
'django.contrib.contenttypes',
'django.contrib.sessions',
'django.contrib.messages',
'django.contrib.staticfiles',
]
I have this
manic marsh
```py
from django.db import models
class Users(models.Model):
faculty_id = ...
What is this model supposed to do? Did you get it from some third-party tutorial?

I got that, but what s webapp?
manic marsh

rotund hedge
Yes, and how it module come to be and of what it consists?
django-admin startproject WebApp
That's how it was made
manic marsh
it doesn't have migrations dir, it means it's excluded from migrations system
rotund hedge
How do I add it?
manic marsh
ah wait
right, you said it's project
project is not an app
you need python manage.py startapp
rotund hedge
`django-admin startproject WebApp`
I did this
manic marsh
manic marsh
```py
from django.db import models
class Users(models.Model):
faculty_id = ...
Anyway if this model is supposed to be for authorizing users it won't work

Wait why?
That's supposed to be a sort of login portal (haven't added a pwd field yet), that will basically direct the app to know if the logged in user is a superuser or not
manic marsh
Why would it? You didn't specify anything that says it's an authorization model it will be treated like any other one
And django will keep using built-in user model
manic marsh
That's important, because fixing it later might be a pain. If you can't drop your db it definetely will be
rotund hedge
Cool, I will fix it rn and move on
