Django – after login, redirect user to his custom page –> mysite.com/username

by

A simpler approach relies on redirection from the page LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL. The key thing to realize is that the user information is automatically included in the request.

Suppose:

LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL = '/profiles/home'

and you have configured a urlpattern:

(r'^profiles/home', home),

Then, all you need to write for the view home() is:

from django.http import HttpResponseRedirect
from django.urls import reverse
from django.contrib.auth.decorators import login_required

@login_required
def home(request):
    return HttpResponseRedirect(
               reverse(NAME_OF_PROFILE_VIEW, 
                       args=[request.user.username]))

where NAME_OF_PROFILE_VIEW is the name of the callback that you are using. With django-profiles, NAME_OF_PROFILE_VIEW can be ‘profiles_profile_detail’.
