In 8:26 you replace two strings at the same time by writing only one string. How do you do that?

[@SsaliJonathan]

Ctrl + D

22:12 I can't create new post since I believe you set the viewsets. At this point, are you working with the mixins class from previous videos or you just made a post viewset? Thank you!

[@SsaliJonathan]

I am using the previous logic.

[@dominic_lee]

I have a problem after createsuperuser >>> data to long for column 'password' at row 1 22001

[@SsaliJonathan]

Can you please check your user model? chances may be high that you have the password field having a max_length that is short.

[@feberk0908]

@@SsaliJonathan thank you 🙌

@@SsaliJonathan I follow you from Azerbaijan and I like your videos🖤

[@4ktmiguer]

i've tried to pass like this:
AUTH_USER_MODEL = "core.CustomUser"
and the full path to the model is:
core/models/account_models.py
in the terminal the output is this:
django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: AUTH_USER_MODEL refers to model 'core.CustomUser' that has not been installed

[@SsaliJonathan]

check if you have the core in your INSTALLED_APPS list

[@marcosgomes3140]

Why email isnt models.EmailField?

[@SsaliJonathan]

well, it is just some small mistake that I made during recording.

[@heddaolsen4097]

How to log out the user?

[@SsaliJonathan]

Hey man, check out my videos on JWT authentication. Logging out happens when an access token expires. Logging back in will happen when we use a fresh token to aquire a fresh JWT.

Awesome, thanks
